On day two of Dasara I sampled this exquisite Navratri thaali at Shangri-La hotel Bengaluru. This one was unique as it had vrat ka khana so the poori was made using buckwheat, lots of sabudana and simple flavours. A meal I absolutely recommend. Available for dine in and delivery until October 24, 2020. Read all about it in my blog

There is also a small video. Link in bio.

Pretty tablescapes with with my favourite flowers. These are traditional variants of roses. Happy with this purchase from Santhosh @kinnalart. I believe this is the time when local artisans need to be supported the most.

While it is a happy coincidence that I decided to head to the lovely Shivanasamudra falls Gaganachukki and Barachukki today, I realised it's World Tourism Day just now. With rural tourism the theme for the year here are some vignettes of Karnataka's vibrant rural side.

Time to reflect - today and every day.
Like the frangipani whose reflection is captured in the raindrops on this leaf. More so today on World Conservation Day when the world is battling COVID-19. Conserve each day and every day - nature needs to be nurtured.
