the Bong eats!

And a complete food post to follow the previous not-a-food-post!
'coz thats what weekends are all about. Especially when the man is in a mood to don the chef's apron! *Yes, it's the apron in this household, as there's no chef's hat, per se!*

So whats follows is a complete food-trippin' weekend.
Sautrday begins with the lazy black coffee followed by the classic toast-cheese-jam-sunny-side-up combo. The lunch being the usual Bong weekend lunch ~ "Maangsho Bhaat". For food like these, it really pays to be a Bong! Even the "pseudo" part! *chuckle* And an indulgent man as your company, its followed by a complete shopping extravaganze. And yes, I still stand firmly by it ~ "weddings are so much fun!" Of course, the ice-creams (read : Dark Passion), coffees (read : Iced Eskimo) and coolers (read : Classic Lemonade) are always featured. A food trip, afterall!
And after a hard day's work (yes, "shopping" is classified as work. period.) coming back home to that Bong comfort food ~ "Maangsho Bhaat". And this concludes Saturday!

Sunday begins the same way. black coffee followed by soft boiled egg *the warm gooey feeling*. And my Man with a renewed vigour for being the full fledged chef and declaring 'Lunch' on him! And again, a complete trad Bong Sunday feature.
Starting with "maach bhaaja".

drool-worthy "maach bhaja"
Those were a beauty ~ both in terms of sight as well as the drool factor. Followed by, "aloo-phulkopi-matarshuti diye daal", "maacher-jhol", "bhaat". And yes, nothing special, but him cooking always adds the "special" touch to even the most ordinary fare. *Yes, I'm extremely partial to him*

Such a happy-food-lunch demands a sunday nap! And so we spend the afternoon, snoring away to glory. The evening is rescued with sweet wafer biscuits and coffee. Yeah, the sweet tooth features as desperate measures. And then it's again on to the 'final leg to make the food-trail-weekend end on a grand note.'

and grand it was.

cheese and pepperoni pizza, chicken dominator pizza (definitely living up to the name with Five kinds of chicken toppings), spicy grilled chicken legs. and for the dessert, a box full of custom made dark chocolates with nuts (yesh yesh, we're lavish) and "Blockbuster" Almond Mocha icecream!

you can never go wrong with pepperoni and cheese!
definitely dominating!
and thus, bringing down the curtains on the weekend.

p.s. the earthquake also featured in between though! and on both the days, thereby making it a real "rocking" weekend in every sense!
p.p.s. for all the non Bongs reading this, you're advised to get hold of your Bong friends to make you understand the true essence of the food mentioned herein, because i simply refuse to translate them! *narcissist me much*
