Recently I had been to an Indian restaurant at Columbus. "Bay Leaf".
Me and a group of my friends had been there for a buffet on a Sunday.
I was done with eating what ever I wanted in about 15 min I should say.
And then I saw my friend eating a chat and I thought I should have grabbed one too.
I looked out for the chat table. I went there and asked for a chat.
The guy made the aloo chat and asked me if I wanted pani puri too. After my usual confusion I said a yes because I thought Pani puri is the king of chats. Missing it is no fun :P
I took the chat plate and came back to my table. I started eating the aloo chat which wasn't very tasty. And I thought I should give a try to pani puri. I just dipped one puri in water(pani) and when I was about put it in to my mouth, the puri broke :(
The water started to fall in my plate.
My friend came my way and said, " Look I have a idea. Don't dip the puri into water instead take a puri and put the pani into it with a spoon". This would work better, I thought :)
He called me again and said, " The American lady in the next table is watching you."
Don't make a fool of yourself!! I was instructed by my brain :P.
I took a peek from the corner of my eye. She was looking at me with keen interest. Just watching how I would eat it. It was kind of embarrassing. I was thinking if I should eat or not. What ever I do the lady would continue to watch me. So I just filled one puri with some pani in the spoon and rushed it into my mouth. The American lady clapped and laughed loudly. Nothing much to say from my side. I think one can understand I had nothing else to do apart from sitting in my place feeling totally embarrassed.
I was wondering what was so funny about me eating a pani puri?

May be she was waiting to see if you were successful so that she can give it a try :)

Hey! Nice place to hangout, your blog! :)
I've tried that.. putting pani into the puri with a spoon. Not half as fun as dipping the puri in the water. :)
Maybe the lady was looking for tips- How to eat Pani puri! :P
