The food is served in traditional
brass thalis with bowls fixed for curry,dal,dessert,similar to the method of eating in Gujarat. The spread includes a traditional thali in a buffet consisting of popular delicacies such as the spongy and the delicious dhokla, and other farsaans.

Working at Google, job to die for Internet giant Google to offer 50% salary to employee’s family for ten years
Google employees may now not need any life insurances further. The perks of being a Google employee go far beyond just the goodwill name and beer at work. The company vests 50% salary of an employee for ten years after the employee dies in harness. This is not some sort of a group insurance plan offered by the internet giant. It is an added perk by Google, where the family may have the right to sell or tranfser stocks however as they may please.In addition to this , they extend $1000 a month allowance to the employees’ kids till they turn 19.(23 if they may want to pursue full time education) Google plans to extend thus policy to 34000 employees worldwide.However, it is now only limited to US headquarters.
