This month begins a long series of festivities in India (not that we lack festivals at any time of the year) so we decided to take a look at some of the best festivals to celebrate and feast across India.

While our Big Bite segment has a surprise new venture from Namma Chennai, the food trail takes a spicy detour to Andhra.

Not a foodie, get a history lesson with our Madras walk and take a look at our to-do list to plan your weekend.

Happy Ganesh chaturthi

The traditional food during the Hornbill festival would be Fermented bamboo shoot made with pork and fish, boiled, fermented or sun-dried soya bean with smoked meat, and fermented rice beer.

You can visit Nagaland during the festival, which typically takes place in the first week of December in Kisama, the Naga Heritage Village.

Durga Puja, Kolkata Also known as Durgotsava, the festival is celebrated to revere Goddess Durga's victory over a demon called Mahishasura. It is a ten-day occassion celebrated during Navaratri. Particularly from the sixth to the ninth day, one can witness huge images of Goddess Durga taken around the streets and open for the public.

On the tenth day, the Goddess is immersed into water in a process called Visarjan.

A traditional delicacy during this festival, also known as Navami Bhog, comprises sweet dishes such as Rasgulla and mishti doi, and main course made without onion and garlic, such as Bengali chit01 fish kalia (fish curry made with clownknife fish) , mutton chaap (also known as mutton ribs) and Bengali mishti pulao.

This year Durga Puja will be celebrated from 15th October to 19th October.

Ganesh Chathurthi, Mumbai Also known as Vinayaka Chathruthi in Tamil Nadu, this festival is celebrated as a reverence to Lord Ganesha. The four-day festival is marked with the installation of Lord Ganesha's clay idols in public places and at homes.

This year, Ganesh Chathurthi falls on the 13th of September.

The best place to witness this festival would be in Maharashtra, where crowds of people gather on the streets to celebrate a procession carrying the Lord around different localities.

BIG BITE

The Galitos at the Forum Mall, Vadapalani is utterly Afrzcan!! The gcor in its true inimitable style is simply geometric, splashed with rich vibrant colours. The low hanging lights, the wooden ceilings and the wax print chairs are in 'line' with the Afrzcan culture. The cuisine itself is larger than life, the smings are mammoth and the flavour- taste combo is in perfect rhythm!!

The Hot Fried Chicken Wings came with true heat and power with its fierce chili toppings. The Peach Iced Tea is strong, packs a punch with its flavoured intensity and soothes the heated palate.

A definite energy booster !!

The humongous Supremo Chicken Burger arrived layered with a dose of double cheese, mayo and gnlled chicken fillet.

The buns are glazed and so has a mild crunch, along with the bystander lettuce. The chicken is fresh, tender, juicy and leaves a t r d right through to the gut. The fat, seasoned Fries topped with the Extra Hot Sauces are ideal sidekicks!!

DC I Chennai I September 2018 1 PG 36

What came next was akin to seeing a rainbow after a heavy shower!! The combinations of colours, ideas, textures and creativity of all the delicacies hanging precariously from the hooks, makes the Chicken Espetada look like a braid of a bride in waiting!! The chicken thigh cubes are strung together with green and red peppers as partitions - all glazed and golden with BM African spices.

The corn on the cob is typically African, all tossed up in garnish and seared to precision!!

If the heat extended to super nova levels, then the sweetness of the desserts is like the nectars from heaven!! The Chocolate Brownie is gooey and enriched with cocoa goodness!! The moisture laded Vanilla Ice Cream softened the hard crust of the brownie and made quite an impact.

For those desirous of handling the heat of Afrzca and Chennai combined, the Galitos is surely a step in the right direction!

The fear of Emden

Can you believe a German cruiser from World War I) is immortalised in Tamil lexicon?

On September 22, 1914, SMS Emden, a German light cruiser reached Chennai and opened fire using the cover of the dark night.

Oil tanks of the Burmah Oil Company, and a merchant vessel in the Madras harbour, were destroyed in the attack. Emden then slipped away before the British could retaliate. Though the impact of the attack was minimal, the fear that the ship may return led to many people fleeing the city. It is believed that the attack lasted for half an hour, after which the Emden slipped away before the British gun batteries in Royapuram could repel the attack. Though the damage was minimal, many people fled Chennai in fear post the attack.This led to properties being sold at throwaway prices in the city.

To this day, anyone who is menacing or powerful are called Emden in Tamil Nadu

What defines your style of cooking?

My style of cooking is trendy. Though personally I adore traditional, regional cooking, a lot of times I try new techniques to suit the frequent changing clientele and current food trends.

What'syour favourite breakfast in Chennai?

Murugan idli for sure. For the quality and consistency of idli, varieties of chutneys, sambhar & other available breakfast variety and for the traditional way of serving food on banana leaf.

What's the most exciting dish you have tried in Zhennai?

Jgg VeechuParotha. It's a meal on its own.

So tasty tkmouthwatering. The name veechucomes from the Tamil word 'veesu' which means to spin in the air.The rolled-out discs of dough gets flipped in the air and spun until it turns paper thin. The corners are then gathered and folded to form an envelope, i d the parotha is then tawa-fried with a little drizzle of oil.
