5 Minute Chia Ice-Cream Sundae

Chia seeds are something everybody is talking about. You might have read about it in some of the blogs, health and nutrition articles, Youtube videos, Insta, Pinterest and where not.

I got introduced to Chia last year when I was in Mumbai. I was having falooda kulfi at Juhu when I noticed those weird fish egg like things in my serving. I asked the vendor what it was. Sabza, he said.
"Yeh kya hota h??". then he explained we that these seeds have cooling properties and are beneficial for our body.

Then the curious me googled its English name, followed by its health benefits. Soon after I started consuming this. I loved those seeds in my sharbat and ice creams. Like ways, I came up with this recipe while I was thinking of the ways to incorporate these into my daily schedule.

This is such an easy recipe even your kids will love to make it on their own.

My Take On: Malaka Spice

Hey lovelies, I have a friend who is transferring to NCR this weekend. It all happened on such a short notice that we didn’t get enough time to plan for anything. She received the confirmation on Thursday, hence we planned an evening out on the very day. The irony of this farewell party is that the person departing was on fast.:P. Anyways, we decided a beautiful place but due to traffic and work the next day, we ended in the neighborhood. So here’s My Take on: Malaka Spice. The first impression, those flower laden rickshaws parked on both sides of the entrance. As I stepped in I liked their outdoor seating, those beautifully decorated walls with picture frames and then those paper lamps on the edge of the shed running all the way to the other end. Southeast Asian food is not something I like. I just can’t take red chilly or pungent and sharp flavors like those of kimchi. I am a die-hard fan of Chinese, probably that’s what I eat more often than my own food. But Thai o...

I got to visit this place last weekend. It was a rainy evening and I went there for dinner with a couple of friends. As usual before going there I did little R&D about the place and the menu. I was ready with my order before reaching there. The place has outdoor seating. The tables are arranged under a shed alongside the bar. the tables are candle-lit. Dim lights, raining, slight cold and outdoor dinner. Amazing. The ambiance is good. And now comes the food. We ordered few starters both veg and non veg, and the main course. Our order was: Starters; Veg Spring rolls: Th...
