Two days ago , I was in terrible mood . As usual , Mister had no idea how to get rid of my bad temper. You see , its his responsibility as he ends up bearing the brunt of my temper . So, in his trial and error , he took me to a restaurant for dinner. This restaurant is called Garam Masala who serves authentic Marathi cuisine alongside Punjabi food and some liquor . Frankly, I am not greatest fans of Garam Masala , but I'd decided to not interrupt in his bid to calm me .
He ordered Bharli wangi and Bhakri for us . This Bharli wangi turned out to be awesome . It had everything in proportion . So well , that it has now become a bench mark for me on next outing anywhere . Needless to say , I was back in real world sooner and accepting my good fortunes. So , now why I am writing this -Because Athawale and RJ Archana of 91.1 .
A few days ago , RPI has taken on its agenda to save Marathi Cuisine. They are insisting hotels to keep it on their Menu card . Ofcourse we are aware how strong is our political will to protect the culture of Marathi . I precisely know why Mr. Athawale was worried , It is due to people like RJ Archana who said , "Yeh theatre mein toh ghus gaye , ab restaurant mein bhi decide karenge." (These people have already barged in Theater and now trying to gatecrash Restaurant ) . Now, the way she said it , she didn't seem to be talking about Political Goons , but for overall "Marathi" . So, its natural for Mr. Athawale to be more concerned .
On my finger tips we can count 10 marathi cuisine serving restaurants who serve top food consistently and mind you at a rate which fits most people's pocket too. So, my suggestion to Athwale sir is work to provide these restaurants an umbrella of safe business (tax havens/ lesser corruption/more food festivals) to help them survive than rathar urging everyone to take Marathi cuisine and convert it something continental or international ultimately spoiling the taste . And for Ms. Archana , Madam , People will sniff Marathi food and Culture . Be it a fried surmai , Oily misal , Bharli wangi or dietry Bhakari. They are here to stay .
