What culinary delights! I like the way you enhance the piece by interweaving vignettes about food and cooking methods of bygone days. You do hook the reader and gently reel her in, to a table at Singh Sahib!!

Oh I love this article. And it’s lovely the way you’ve weaved the historical tid-bits in with the description of the food. I didn’t even know that this restaurant existed, but am definitely going to go eat there and order the Meat Beliram.

Hi Sid!
You sure know how to make a girl long for the kitchens of Punjab! I’ve captured some of those flavors flavors in my book, Menus and Memories From Punjab, but now I want to start anew. Thanks so much for the inspiration! Rani

It is a great article .I appreciate the way you experience and experiment with variety of food and come up with such reviews….Making our search easy .Do you also write for papers/journals ?
If you start your own Kingfisher Food Guide it could be a hit .

@Nikki & Sid: Yes, Nikki’s right, Sid. Kebabchini (we Bengalis used to use it too, no idea how it got lost on the way to the 21st century) is berry spice in its own right. And while yes, they do resemble allspice a hell of a lot, they are actually cubeb berries (note how we got the name!). Unlike allspice it has a prounounced stalk hanging on, so it is also called tailed pepper. It used to be one of the treasures on the Spice Route, coming from what is now Indonesia, hence yet another name: Java pepper. I confess I find it difficult to come by even in Kolkata, so I’ve actually used allspice (from a mulling mix bottle) instead… but I’ve found a pinch of white pepper added brings a closer approximation. Of course allspice itself is difficult to come by, hence the ubiquitious blend of garam masala has to do for our curries… in fact I wonder if the original garam masala was invented to tide over the absence of cubeb? (not an entirely serious question, but does anyone know the historu of garam masala?)
