What is your favorite food memory? Please provide an anecdote.

My 1st tryst with Chinese food. My father had taken me and my sister out to try out a new type of cuisine. This was in Kharagpur(W.B) He had lovingly ordered sweet corn soup and lots of other things after that. We could barely get it down our throat. We didn’t know what in god’s name was being served and the smell… I can never forget that evening…my poor papa was so disappointed, he didn’t think of packing the entire leftover home, and we always tell him he should have done it. Needless to say how we have always relished Chinese food henceforth.

Learnt cooking from my Mother.
