Foodaholics in Ahmedabad

Never have we ever had such good South Indian breakfast in such a beautiful outdoorsy setup. A self-service restaurant, @sambar.cafe is located near Bopal Dental College, a little ahead of Pleasure Club on Bopal Ghuma road. We chose a super-chilly morning for our breakfast and instantly were in awe of the naturally-created ambiance, thanks to that magnanimous tree! We had the following : Mysuru Masala Dosa Masala Dosa Puri with South Indian Masala Vada - Sambar Idiyappam with Stew Thair Vada Special mention to the softness of the Vada 😍 The filter coffee inspired us, just about enough, to explore the plant nursery next door! We did pick a few saplings (on the next visit I'm definitely getting that ajwain plant!) We lost complete track of time, that's how peaceful it was that morning! Definitely going there soon, for more, hoping to meet the people who run this beautiful place! What's your breakfast today?! #IPaidForIt #FoodaholicsInAhmedabad #Foodaholics #Ahmedabad #Livetoeat #Foodhunt #Foodfind #Foodblog #Foodwriters #Food #FoodLove #Foodgasm #Foodstagram #Instafood #Foodnetwork #Foodfeed #Foodtalk #Foodtalkindia #PlacesToEatInAhmedabad #FoodInAhmedabad #ThingsToDoInAhmedabad #AhmedabadFoodies

Our love for sabzis is largely known! Hope this super creamy, super rich, very popular and the non-tomato variant of Navratna Korma is exciting for those who like the nutty-yoghurt based gravies. Recipe in the highlights.

We're loving how we're going retro with all the Butter-Cream Pastries and have parked ourselves outside the '90s! @uppercrust_restaurantandbakery is on the same nostalgia-bus as us, and has introduced the Old-fashioned Pastries. We saw their IG post and within minutes, placed an order and got them for us. Such melt-in-the-mouth pastries! Damn! And the best part is, alongwith the usual eggless version, they also have a version where the sponge of the pastries has egg! Yes, I'm sure you know it by now, we LOVE eggs in our cakes! The nostalgic fool in me, has a special place in my heart for the taste of everything I've eaten as a child! The quest, for more, continues.. #IPaidForIt #FoodaholicsInAhmedabad #Foodaholics #Ahmedabad #Livetoeat #Foodhunt #Foodfind #Foodblog #Foodwriters #Food #FoodLove #Foodgasm #Foodstagram #Instafood #Foodnetwork #Foodfeed #Foodtalk #Foodtalkindia #PlacesToEatInAhmedabad #FoodInAhmedabad #ThingsToDoInAhmedabad #AhmedabadFoodies

Most of us know him as @wannabechef__ and quite a lot know his undying passion for Thai and Indian food but it is extremely personal when I tell you that I know of @v_aminz since a time when every Tuesday, he used to cook a seafood meals for his Parents' Dinner Date and boy oh boy have we come a long way from there! And that's why, the minute we learned about the Thotha Pop-up today at @the_sizzlingswad , we knew we HAD to see him in action serving up some great food! For everyone who has been trying his recipes since a long time, don't need to be told about the taste of his food; but let me tell you this - His food tastes wayy better than what it looks in pictures!

This afternoon we had two lunches from two diverse cuisines of India. While @rohanbhatt will tell you about the other one, I would like to share our experience with our first lunch for the day. 'Thali of Sindh' from the on going Sindhi Food Festival at @thegreenhouse_thehouseofmg . This is from their weekend collaboration with a homechef, @handlewithfood . My primary reason to order this thali was for the Dal Pakwaan which has been on my mind since a week now. In the pre-covid era, I'd have driven to Juna Wadaj and had the Dal Pakwaan off the streets, but in current times, I look out for more cleaner and hygienic solutions to my manic cravings for anything street-y. The food came in a huge 'House of MG' special tiffin bag, with each item neatly and separately packed. While my Dal Pakwaan craving was satiated without a trace of doubt, what was delightful was everything else that came alongwith! The Thom wari Bhindi and Bhee ki sabzi was a source of satisfaction for anyone who like the two vegetables and garlic! The macaroni and fox nuts sabzi overruled my primary cynicism of it. Kheerni was joyful! For 776 incl. of taxes (my swiggy genie charges were extra) the meal clearly served two adults with a decent appetite. To someone like me, for whom it is not an everyday meal, labelling the containers would've come handy. #IPaidForIt #FoodaholicsInAhmedabad #Foodaholics #Ahmedabad #Livetoeat #Foodhunt #Foodfind #Foodblog #Foodwriters #Food #FoodLove #Foodgasm #Foodstagram #Instafood #Foodnetwork #Foodfeed #Foodtalk #Foodtalkindia #PlacesToEatInAhmedabad #FoodInAhmedabad #ThingsToDoInAhmedabad

A few days ago, @mayurjobanputra mentioned the Vegetable shop on the road connecting YMCA and S.P Ring Road. The Ponk is roasted elsewhere and they sell it from the shop; and while they'd stored it in the fridge, the Ponk had retained the slightly burnt taste and it's sweetness. The લીંબુ-મરી ની સેવ was the highlight, since the sharpness of the limbu came through so good, that @eshashah12 had to ask - "અમાં ઉપર થી પણ લીંબુ નીચોવ્યું છે?" We were told that they keep limited quantities only. Does anyone know a place in Ahmedabad where they roast fresh Ponk?

A Sugar-free Snack! These Khajur Discs are versatile because one can load them with dryfruits and seeds of your choice; also garnish this with coconut instead of poppy seeds. It makes for a great carry-on in your office bag and is winter friendly! Hope you find the comfort and confidence in making these at home and needn't buy it off the shelves. That way you are in complete control of the quality of ingredients that go in! Recipe in the highlights. #FestinWinterEnergizer #FiAxFestin #Contest #PaidPartnership #FoodaholicsInAhmedabad #Foodaholics #Ahmedabad #Livetoeat #Foodhunt #Foodfind #Foodblog #Foodwriters #Food #FoodLove #Foodgasm #Foodstagram #Instafood #Foodnetwork #Foodfeed #Foodtalk #Foodtalkindia #PlacesToEatInAhmedabad #FoodInAhmedabad #ThingsToDoInAhmedabad

After a long we re-experienced what an FiA enquiry does to you - it overwhelms the living soul out of you! We craved a good Saag-Roti combination, a few days ago, which was triggered by the fantastic meal sent by Arvinder Aunty (for everyone who's walked into the FiA FoodBelt at Weekend Window, know her as Maa who makes lip-smacking Chole Bhature!) Well, we were flooded with recommendations and the truth is - we did not know there were so many home-chefs who make such intense traditional Punjabi delicacies. @mridu_parikh , a Punjabi, married into a Gujarati family and settled in Ahmedabad, is an old member of the FiA Family and even participated at the #FiAStudio at the FoodBelt (oh how we miss WW). She discovered a whole new entrepreneurial spirit thereafter and deep-dived into serving the city her home-cooked meals. And as luck would have it, her weekend menu pleasantly crossed paths with our weekend cravings! The saag was delicious enough by itself but the makke di roti and white butter brought together the sharpness of ginger in the saag. The pickle was a delight to eat, too! #IPaidForIt #FoodaholicsInAhmedabad #Foodaholics #Ahmedabad #Livetoeat #Foodhunt #Foodfind #Foodblog #Foodwriters #Food #FoodLove #Foodgasm #Foodstagram #Instafood #Foodnetwork #Foodfeed #Foodtalk #Foodtalkindia #PlacesToEatInAhmedabad #FoodInAhmedabad #ThingsToDoInAhmedabad

This recipe is dedicated to three people. First, are those who have been DM-ing me, even commenting on all the latest recipe to tell me they are missing the Mithai posts! Second, my husband who has spent significant time in Bangalore, and third is me, because i overcame the demotivation that had crept in owing to the heat and humidity, to recreate any sweet, since a long time. 😬 . Mysurpa, is the termed as the Melting Magic. This rich, and creamy version of the traditional Mysore Pak requires no special equipments, and only three ingredients - Besan, Sugar, Ghee! . I hope you will recreate this in your kitchens and let me know if it fulfills your cravings for the Shri Krishna Sweets, because those guys are my benchmark for the best Mysurpa in India, since they are also the ones to create this 70+ year old legacy! 😊 . #FiAStaysAtHome #DiscoverCreateCelebrate #Ahmedabad #Foodaholics #FoodaholicsInAhmedabad #ShareTheRecipe #SpreadTheLove #FoodInAhmedabad #Foodhunt #Foodfind #Foodblog #Foodwriters #Food #FoodLove #Foodgasm #Foodstagram #Instafood #Foodnetwork #Foodfeed #Foodtalk #Foodtalkindia #ThingsToDoInAhmedabad #AhmedabadFightsCorona #YourFoodLab #Mysurpa
