It’s beautiful, right? Observing those colourful dishes on the plate served, enhancing the beauty of your home, invading new blossoms of happiness. Everything is just natural, no mixed emotions, no neutralization nothing. Just a pure feeling that all of us enjoy. Who doesn’t like eating good food prepared by the hands of mummy!? We all know the fact that it’s amazing to sit with family and enjoy these tales of natural beauty and occurrences. Authenticity of food has a role to play here. Its existence comes to place when we sit and categorize the memorable and expensive genres related to this exposure.
“Tales of Thali,” I have chosen this theme to encourage and cultivate the simplicity of Indian food. There are different experiences of food that people like to narrate, however the most impressive has a highlight to play.
Under this approach of knowing more about Indian food cuisine, different elements will be shared and explored. Multiple varieties and coolest stories within the parameters of this genre will have a major role to play.
There are food items whose essence are known when we experience their taste. Delicious items have interesting stories too. An Indian Thali is not just a thali with variety of food substitutes, it’s a story of every house, a story that has the power to turn the world and make us believe that all cultures are one.
Description of yummy food recipes has an efficient place too. How does a normal Thali look?! We don’t judge its existence, however it’s an astonishing picture in its own self. It has beauty, taste, good shape, emotions and at last a connection. It has the power to accumulate all the negativity and exhibit the untold happiness. The common picture is just a small round shaped vessel containing diverse tastes and preferences, we have to be particular while explaining more about this importance.
Flavours explain stories and stories discover experiences. People have methods to acknowledge this elegance of food. As I mentioned, authentic exposure is a must too.
Culture and society inculcate their presence more vividly. There are associations made around the food on Thali, say for example, if the food is served on a green leaf the culture is south Indian, whereas if it has good number of sweet dishes a new concept avail.
A Thali is not made up of the dishes it contains, the exotic dilemma of feelings is exchanged. New inventions are promised and that happiness is permanent.
There are many promises inside that Thali, source of comfort and hopeful eyes. All in one frame. Cute demands and experienced praising find a room inside for its success. Cultural differences and new boundaries are crossed. For some it becomes happiness while for others a floor of encouragement. Materialistic polish of someone who made the promises that were kept.
