Kerala Tourism has rolled out a campaign in Dubai attracting Arab travellers and showcasing the state’s natural bounty, with taxis plying in the metropolis.

As many as 200 Kerala-branded taxis ferry the message of ‘A Faraway Land Four Hours Away’– with stunning visuals featuring hill stations,

backwaters and also Ayurvedic therapies – through the streets of Dubai. Arab tourists are the biggest spenders. Kerala received over one lakh visitors from the region in 2015, with 20,506 tourists from the UAE alone. The majority came from Saudi Arabia with 51,149 Saudi nationals visiting last year.

A TRIBUTE TO K ASIF UP government has come up with a plan to build a park themed on the legendary Bollywood film Mughal-e-Azam for tourists near the Etawah lion safari in Uttar Pradesh.

The theme park will not only be based on the film, but will also highlight its director-producer K Asif who hailed from Etawah.

This initiative will help to increase the footfall of tourists in the region, travelling from other parts of the world. The theme park will play an important role in informing people about the great filmmaker, and the timeless classic film he had made.

Pench and Tadoba tiger reserves in Maharashtra have opened its doors for monsoon forest safaris to provide wildlife lovers an opportunity to explore the unique charm of forests during the rainy season. The routes that will remain open for the forest safaris include Moharli-Khatoda-TadobaPadharpouni-Navegaon, Kolara-Jamani Chowk-Waghai-Padharpouni, Jamani ChowkTadoba. and Khutvanda-Khatoda-Tadoba via Jamumbodi.

Considering that monsoon further enhances the picturesque beauty of these forest areas and more people are demanding to experience this wildlife sojourn during this period, the Maharashtra Tourism Development Corporation (MTDC) has given tourists an opportunity to take a nature trail in this season too.

STARS on earth

Going ‘green’ is the new trend with travellers opting for ways to reduce their carbon footprints. Here is an excellent example of combining rural, eco-friendly, responsible and adventure tourism, along with having a never-before encounter with ‘Million Fireflies’.

ow about lying down below a tree in pindrop silence with total darkness, watching a million fireflies lighting up the sky and no artificial light to damage the view or experience? With Christmas still being far away, it was awe-inspiring to watch fireflies making trees look like glittering Christmas trees, not just one, but a whole jungle full of shimmering Christmas trees.

OVERALL EXPERIENCE The option of spending your weekend in ‘Purushwadi’ (four-hour drive from Mumbai, near Igatpuri), may not sound enthusiastic at the first go considering the travel time. However, for me the trip turned out to be more adventurous, fun and exceeded all my expectations.

Comfortable camping tents are placed in the middle of the jungle (about 0.5 km outside the village) on a mountain overlooking a valley, complete with a view of a river and farms. Meals at a local villager’s house, sunset treks, rural games, indulging in local dayto-day activities and taking a swim in the river are some of the highlights of the trip to this stunning rural corner of Maharashtra. But the little dancing stars completely stole the show!

A SONG IN THE DARK While watching them, recall the lines of ‘Fireflies’ song by Adam Young in the album Owl City.

‘Cause I’d get a thousand hugs From ten thousand lightning bugs As they tried to teach me how to dance A foxtrot above my head A sock hop beneath my bed

QUICK FACTS

TIPS

When in Purushwadi, experience rural life at its best. Enjoy the local cuisine, walk through the heart of nature, take a dip in the cool waters - it’s perfect for unwinding.

From far, it looks like they are blinking simultaneously but when you get closer, you will realise some blink about 3 times per second (those are the males) and some blinks one time per second (females).

There are more than 2,000 species of firelies in Purushwadi and each has a unique flashing pattern.

Purushwadi outside our tent site. The sun was going down and we were busy chatting with each other. Suddenly, everybody went quiet as they saw few beautiful fireflies on the tree.

Watching fireflies is an enchanting experience, there is nothing comparable to an encounter with them in the middle of a jungle. A nervous excitement filled most of us as the darkness was quite thick at first.

In a matter of moments, our eyes adjusted and the fairy like lights of the fireflies covered the sky.

With the campsite getting enveloped in the night shadow, more and more fireflies started dancing around. I watched their lights flicker on and off as they appeared and disappeared in the night sky. Their dance formed a forever moving painting with each passing flash of the firefly, cool undertones of beauty and serenity seamlessly blending with bold highlights of spontaneity and mysticism.

Best time to visit: June to December DISTANCE

Keep your camera handy, as the trip will offer beautiful landscape scenes.

It’s kind of impossible to take pictures of them because its just too dark to take nonblurry photos without flash, and if you take with flash you can’t see the fireflies blinking.

Fireflies are efficient light producers. A chemical reaction allows them to glow without wasting heat energy.

IN THE LAP OF NATURE Acres Wild is situated in Coonoor near Ooty in South India. Spread over 22 acre, it is run by the renowned Bollywood personality Mansoor Khan, fondly remembered for his super hit film QSQT and Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander.

Twenty-three years ago, he left the bedazzling lights of Mumbai to be in the lap of nature, to ensure easy availability of peace of mind, coupled with healthy life and healthy food.

Both, he, and his wife, Tina, got into the manufacturing of organic cheese, which has now become a part of Coonoor history. There are school children, technocrats and families visiting the farms who love to learn the art of cheese-making. When asked why he left the cacophony of Mumbai, Mansoor says his idea was to live in a quiet place, where he could go back to the fundamentals.

Acres Wild indulges in the process of making bricks, harvesting rain water and making organic food stuff. They also have a biogas plant set-up to recycle the waste, ensuring the supply of clean energy around. The guests here feel calm in the pure and pristine surroundings as there are no sights of clustered concrete jungles. Even Khan and his wife feel excited to share the knowledge of cheese-making with school groups, couples, individuals, etc., who visit the farm.

Formed with an aim of shaping an eco-friendly, holistic and selfsustaining life style, Acres Wild also serves the purpose of being a homestay with Bed and Breakfast where there are three guesthouse cottages with a total of five rooms.

The farm harvests rain water, has a brick making facility, biogas plant and cultivates organic produce. Guests can even indulge in a cheese-making course.

Acres Wild grows Azolla in ponds and Napier Grass in a fenced section for cows. They are growing organic vegetables as well. To attract Gaurs (Bison), it maintains gaps in the fence and natural bodies of water to improve the habitat. The key activity at the farm is to make gourmet or artisan cheese from the milk of their hybrid Jersey and Holstein cows. Here, guests

The Acres Wild property

can also learn making the Gourmet Artisan cheese in two days by taking the compact two-day cheese-making course. However, the course is available only for guests staying at the farmstay.

oa is a land of beautiful beaches, hinterlands, cuisine, culture, colour and costumes. In the midst of all these glitter and glamour is its exquisite and rich heritage that mesmerises everyone. Heritage in Goa, found aplenty through its monuments, traditions, cuisine, houses, hospitality, forts and traditions, can be seen through seven heavenly wonders that can only be experienced when in Goa.

MAGNIFICENT MONUMENTS Old Goa, one of Goa’s biggest heritage hub, is just 9 km away from the capital city, Panjim. Visiting Old Goa’s heritage complex is simply divine as it not only epitomises a heritage treat, but also a spiritual retreat for visitors. This heritage complex houses the tomb and relics of St. Francis Xavier at the Basilica of Bom Jesus, the first Minor Basilica in India and regarded as one of the best. St. Cajetans’s church, that stands opposite to Se Cathedral, was constructed on the primary design of the Basilica of St. Peter’s in Rome and is the only surviving domed church in Goa. Furthermore, St. Augustine’s Tower in Old Goa was built as a church in 1572, but now has just a 46m bell tower left in the midst of the ruins. All these three monuments are part of the UNESCO’s world heritage site.

Se Cathedral, the largest church in Asia, is a major tourist attraction at Old Goa. The attractions of this church include its giant bell, sky high ceilings, massive pillars and eight chapels.

FAMOUS FORTIFICATIONS Standing tall and strong are some historical forts in Goa which resonate the freedom struggle that led to Goa’s liberation and the valiant and heroic sacrifices of Goan

freedom fighters that contributed to it. Strong fortifications and scenic surroundings make these monuments an attraction for tourists from far and wide.

Fort Tiracol, a 17th century fort on the northern tip of Goa at the mouth of the Tiracol River, now houses a Boutique Heritage Hotel

by Goa Tourism Development Corporation.

It has seven exquisite suites with décor that blends well with history and heritage. Reis Magos Fort is located on the northern banks of River Mandovi, across Panjim. A heritage site and major tourist spot, once ruin remains of the fort, is now renovated and houses caricatures of renowned Goan cartoonist, Late Mario Miranda. Similarly, Chapora Fort and Corjuem Fort in North Goa and Cabo de Rama fort and the Mormugao Fort in South Goa are also very popular tourist sites steeped in history and heritage.

HAUTE HOUSES Goa is famous for its Portuguese styled heritage houses in the North and South of

Goa, that overwhelms visitors through its vibrant colours and architectural designs of the old Latin quarters. Fontainhas in Panjim, a perfect location to cherish heritage houses, now allure tourists for its heritage hotels and restaurants, and art galleries.

Margao, Chandor, Curtorim in South Goa and Saligao, Siolim, Pernem in North Goa are ideal for heritage trails through the quaint towns and villages bedecked by heritage homes. Even though a stay in a heritage house may be expensive, experience of comforts and hospitality and inherited Portuguese legacies is worth it. GTDC conducts walking trails in Fontainhas latin quarter & on Diwar Island.

CHARMING CULTURE The rich cultural heritage of Goa is a stark contrast to the rest of India and leave the visitors spellbound. It is a combination of originality and influences with a riot of colour, costumes and creativity. Festivals are the best time to witness Goa’s culture

when artists and artisans converge on the streets to showcase local and traditional dances, folklore, and handicrafts. The annual festivals of Ganesh Chaturti, Diwali, Tripurari Poornima, Carnaval, Shigmo offer platforms for tourists to view Goa’s diverse cultures.

Traditional folk dances of Goa include Dhalo, Ghode Modni, Kunbi dance, Lamp dance, Goff, Sword dance, Dhangar dance during navratra days, Corredinho Portuguese dance etc., and a boat cruise along River Mandovi is a perfect way to take a glimpse of many of the traditional Goan dance forms.

GOAN GOURMETS This aspect of Goa’s heritage is tempting!

Goa’s cuisine is influenced by its Hindu origins, 400 years of Portuguese colonialism and modern techniques. The use of coconut, rice, kokum and use of spices are distinct features. Lip-smacking fish and prawn curry cooked in earthen pots and fish fried or baked over red hot coal is the best meal to enjoy in Goa. To savour authentic Goan food made with rechado or xacuti, visit a heritage home or a heritage style eatery.

Goan smoked sausages and feni makes a good combination. Traditional Goan sweets of bebinca or batiqua, pinagre, dodol made with coconut and coconut juice and jiggery are a must have. When on beach do sip on cool tender coconut water. Besides touring, Goan feast is also an important part of itinerary.

TANTALISING TRADITIONS The warm and hospitable easy going lifestyle along with adaptable customs and traditions is another important aspect of Goan heritage.

People are free to follow their respective religions, and its attached customs and traditions. In fact, many of these customs and traditions are seen during festivals, wedding celebrations, feasts and jatras celebrated across the State. Don’t miss out on witnessing some of Goa’s traditional occupations such as basket weaving, pottery, cashew distillation, shell work and handicrafts. Rural Goa offers glimpses of the traditional forms of Goan life and lifestyles.

Places like Ancestral Goa gives an insight into the Goan life and occupations of the yester years. On beaches, watch out for the ramponkars casting their nets in the wee hours of the morning. Views of Goa’s salt pans, salt fish industry and tile painting are mesmerising too.

And last but not the least, Goa’s heritage

is relished through music that is embedded in the soul of every Goan. The older generations engage in traditional music and drama and the Mando and Tiatrs that are popular even today. Goa’s churches and temples absorbs the tourists into Goan music which is distinct for both Christian and Hindu communities.

If you are planning to visit Goa between September and December, do not miss out on Sarvajanik Ganesh Utsavs, the Narkasur parades on the eve of Diwali, Christmas cribs where you will witness communal harmony at its peak. The warmth and hospitality of Goans is brimming and something that one cherishes forever.

F History Steeped in

Old Kochi exudes a unique charm, reflective of centuries of lucrative spice trade that brought in traders and invaders.

Brinda Gill

A land with a rich culture & heritage, spend time here to absorb the essence of both the past & present

or a land that seems to have every inch seeped with history, Old Kochi had an unusual push into the limelight. History states that devastating floods in 1341 led to sand clogging the flourishing port of Muziris (present day Kodungallur), north of the picturesque fishing island of Kochi. The floods also opened up an estuary along Kochi that blessed it with a safe harbour. In the aftermath of this catastrophe, Muziris declined in importance and Kochi blossomed into a thriving seaport.

T R A V E L

D I A R Y

A SEA PORT THROUGH CENTURIES

The ensuing centuries witnessed the arrival of the Arabs, Chinese, Portuguese, Dutch and British, among others from overseas, along with people from different parts of India, at Kochi. The three European powers successively took control of the island and their presence still lingers in its architecture, layout and names of structures and streets.

While trade activities transformed the island of Kochi into a bustling port town, waves of settlers infused it with a character distinct from the rest of modern day Kochi city that comprises the mainland and several islands. So, while mainland Ernakulam (13 km to the east) bustles with a modern skyline and the neighbouring Willingdon Island is home to offices of the Port Trust, the Indian Navy and a luxury heritage hotel, it is the original island of Kochi, now informally called Old Kochi, to allude to its antiquity that unfolds as a mesmerising mosaic of varied influences.

Old Kochi is home to the heritage precincts of Fort Kochi and Mattancherry.

Meandering paved streets edged by old red coloured sloping tiled roofs, roads shaded by old rain trees, European style buildings, churches and old bungalows, spice and craft shops, cafes and art galleriesthese make Old Kochi a perfect place to explore on foot.

Old Kochi is best explored on foot, with its many cafes, art galleries, spice and craft shops, etc.

- Fort Kochi. Though the fort walls (demolished and rebuilt over time) no longer exist, the name Fort Kochi continues to identify the compact area that enjoys a European flavour.

One of the best spots to commence exploring Fort Kochi is Vasco da Gama Square, aptly located by the seafront.

Its name speaks of the intrepid adventurer who, credited for reaching India by circumnavigating Africa, had arrived in Calicut (now Kozhikode),

ATMOSPHERIC FORT KOCHI In 1503, the Rajah of Kochi granted the Portuguese permission to build a fort near the western seafront of Kochi island, and the stronghold went on to give that part of the island its name

Kerala, in 1498, and furthered trade relations between Kerala and Europe.

Pausing at this promenade and taking in the panoramic views of the Arabian Sea to the west, one realises how the island’s strategic location and safe harbour must have attracted traders and invaders alike.

Lining the shore is a row of Chinese fishing nets that are huge contraptions operated by agile men, using heavy stones and muscle power, to lower large nets and haul them up with catch. It is said Chinese traders had originally put up these nets in about the early 15th century, giving them their unusual name. From here, one can walk down St Francis Church Road, taking in the views and pausing at Bastion Bungalow before visiting the historic St Francis Church that is located next

The Portuguese stamped their presence on Old Kochi by building a fort in 1503. The Dutch took control of Fort Kochi in 1663. The British took control in 1814.

The memory of Vasco da Gama lives on at St Francis Church, the oldest European Church in India (its origin goes back to 1503) as he was temporarily buried here when he passed away in 1524. The impressive Santa Cruz Basilica, a short distance away, is another landmark church, being one of the eight basilicas in the country.

VIBRANT MATTANCHERRY To the east of Fort Kochi is the unusually named precinct of Mattancherry, its name apparently derives from it having been a street (cheri) of mutton butchers! Within it is Jew Town, where names of streets – Jew Town Road, Synagogue Lane, Jews Street - and the Jewish Cemetery speak of the community that once lived here and oversaw a flourishing overseas spice trade.

Though their population has dwindled to a single digit figure now, the highlight of the charming precinct remains the Pardeshi Synagogue (built in 1568) that is graced

The roads leading to the synagogue are lined with low buildings, some painted in bright colours with red tiled roofs that give the area a vernacular flavour. Spices, clothes, embroidery, curios, crafts and art stores are aplenty. Among these, Spice Market is an ideal one-stop store for a range of products from spices to teas and textiles; they have live demonstration of hand-loom weaving. An interesting spot is the International Tourism Police Station and Police Museum that has interesting displays of police uniforms, weapons and other objects.

The Mattancherry Palace, a large complex of temples and a palace (built 1555), speaks of the grandeur of times past. It houses a wealth of treasures, from artefacts and attire to portraits and luminous murals, that showcase the richness of the erstwhile princely kingdoms of the region and the skill of local artisans. Stepping out of the palace, you feel mesmerised by the heritage of Old Kochi.

You returned to screen with Happy Bhag Jayegi almost after two and a half years.

Why did you take this break?

I do have these cycles of working like a maniac and then taking time off. I am very fortunate that I can do this. Now I came to the end of one cycle and started a new one with Happy Bhag Jayegi. It’s just the pattern of behaviour that I have noticed in myself. I didn’t plan this. It has just evolved organically due to my own circumstances and mental make-up.

But where were you?

I spent most of my time in California as my sisters, friends and cousins live there. It’s almost like being home when you are surrounded by family. I did some acting workshops as they help improve my skills. As an actor, you can never stop learning. You have to keep on adding your experiences as acting is not like acquiring a degree.

What drew you towards Happy Bhag Jayegi?

The movie is a light comedy-romance affair but it has India and Pakistan in its backdrop. I’m also told by my director that I am the first Indian hero to play a Pakistani citizen in a Bollywood movie.

To play a Pakistani guy wasn’t tough for me as I know Urdu. I’m not perfect in the language but there were no accentrelated issues. is visible. I don’t know if this change is permanent but it’s encouraging. It’s moving in the right direction. Even in Hollywood, things took time to change.

There are actors today like Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Kalki Koechlin, Radhika Apte among others who are running a parallel stream of content-driven cinema. Do you think there’s more support to good cinema?

I still maintain that there is no support system but just a lot more individuals trying to put out work with their authentic vision, without any compromise. When I started, there was hardly anyone chasing that kind of cinema. Today, there

Was it challenging to play a Pakistani man?

See, India and Pakistan have been separated for 70 years now but I don’t think our shared culture, which lasted centuries, is going to change in just seven decades. There are similarities as well as differences. We learn Hindi while they grow up studying Urdu. To play a Pakistani guy wasn’t tough for me as I know Urdu. I’m not perfect in the language but there were no accent-related issues. I could speak it thoroughly keeping in mind the technicalities of the diction.

Women-centric cinema is finally minting money at the box office with female actors demanding meaty roles. Do you think this change is here to stay?

Of all the changes that people claim to discuss, this one is genuinely there and

are a few more individuals out there, but there is no support for them. It’s just individual passion or circumstance that gives life to a project. Good cinema was supported in the days of National Film Development Corporation (NFDC).

But then nothing substantial occurred after that.

Should we expect you to do more films now?

I hope so. What hasn’t changed is the desire to do middle-of-the-road cinema. Somewhere it should have elements of mainstream but the content should also be strong and original. Such films are not written as often as you and I would like them to be.

So I will still be selective as a result of that and not by choice.

You delved into production with your last venture One By Two. Is your production house still active?

It’s difficult to do acting and producing films together. Right now, I am reading a couple of more scripts to act. I will do some films before I get into production again. I am happy to work with new directors.

erving a sumptuous meal to a guest at a hotel and wowing his palate, is clearly not enough.

Today, hotels create engaging environments and opportunities, where guests can experience exceptional culinary offerings in unforgettable surroundings, albeit to get a flavour of the local food.

From early morning visits to fish and vegetable markets with chefs, followed by a culinary master-class at the hotel, to experiencing the flavours of Old Delhi and from a visit to the local baker to a meal at an old-fashioned haveli, hotels today are offering them all. These bespoke experiences are designed to help guests get the optimum out of a destination.

Each activity benefits from the hotel’s insight into each locality and

has been designed to provide a truly insider’s experience. Most experiences can be wholly tailored to the individual and offer guests, the opportunity to truly engage with the local culture and community.

ITC Hotels across India, are known for their food. A Responsible Luxury approach to their culinary endeavours ensures that they showcase local favourites that mirror the culture of the region. But that’s not all. Their Food Sherpa trails across the country give their guests an insight into the local flavours, while having a lot of fun.

Siddharth Savkur, General Manager, Alila Diwa Goa, explains, “With a growing awareness and respect for work-life balance, more people are prioritising vacations and ‘down time’.

Leisure travellers are now looking beyond the hotel brand and seek unique experiences from the destination.”

Old Delhi street food is best enjoyed in its original setting - the vibrant, labyrinthine lanes of Chandni Chowk.

DELICIOUS DELHI Delhi, as a destination, offers a lot to tourists, but its eclectic cuisine adds to its aura. The Old Delhi trail organised

by ITC Maurya Delhi, thus takes guests on a journey of age-old flavours that are still alive in the melting pot of Delhi’s culture. Dahi Bhalla at Natraj Café, lip-smacking chaats at Hira Lal Chaat Corner, kebabs at Karim’s and Al-Jawahar’s next to the Jama Masjid, jalebis at the famous Jalebiwala and Paranthewali gali, are some of the flavours guests are treated to.

Le Meridien Delhi, too, as part of its ‘Destination Unlocked’, or unlocking the destination through locally-

inspired flavours, ensures their guests experience Purani Dilli by going for the Masterji Kee Haveli tour.

Meena Bhatia, Vice President, Marketing & Operations at Le Meridien New Delhi, elaborates, “This guided tour of Shahjahanabad or Chandni Chowk’s lanes, bazaars, the famed spice market and the grand old part of Delhi which is steeped in history, gives guests an authentic experience of the bygone era.” A key focus of this tour is a special visit to the old palace style haveli, where guests are treated to an Indian style home-cooked meal complete with an explanation of the food and how it should be eaten.

QUICK FACTS One of Chennai’s most iconic restaurants is the 65 year old, Karpagambal Mess, Mylapore, known for its South Indian breakfast.

A well-known restaurant in Old Delhi, Karim’s was established in 1913 and undoubtedly dishes out the flavours of the Mughal era.

Top: A platter full of jalebis

The Taj Mahal Hotel, New Delhi, too organises a specially curated ‘Rickshaw Tour’ for its patrons giving them a chance to experience the multi-faceted charms of Old Delhi. Ajith Vasu, Les Clef d’or Concierge, The Taj Mahal Hotel, New Delhi, explains, “With the Rickshaw Tour, guests get transported 400 years back in time. The fascinating tour takes guests through the city’s historical sites. The stroll through Chawri Bazar, Kinari Bazar and Ajmeri Gate lets patrons get their fill of Old Delhi street food favourites.”

MAGNIFICENT MAHARASHTRA Le Meridien Nagpur offers a curated experience as well. Food in Nagpur too can be a sensory overload. Varadhi cuisine influences the city and the interior regions of the state. This culinary tour starts with ‘Poha Chana Rassa’ lavishly garnished with Chivda, at Kishore’s; and includes Saoji at Jagdish Bhojnalaya, one of the most talked about preparations in Nagpur for non-vegetarian food, followed by a Varadhi Thaat or thali, that comprises local delicacies like Mirchi ka Thecha,

Jhunka, Patodi cha Rassa, Bhakar, Gode Bhaat, etc. The tour ends with Orange Barfi at Shree Heera Sweets.

GOA’S GEMS Nothing beats the aroma and taste of freshly baked bread. Alila Diwa Goa takes their guests to the local bread man, known as ‘podher’ and guests watch him as he works his magic with a mixture of flour, yeast, water and lots of muscle power. And, of course, they get to taste several varieties including pao, poi and kankon.

Equally exciting is the visit they organise to the Tropical Spice Plantation in Keri. Guests can enjoy a traditional welcome before embarking upon a guided tour of the plantation where they can learn about various spices and their medicinal values, ending the day with a Goan lunch.

With a taste of local flavours and witnessing a slice of local life, guests return home more enriched and wellinformed, than just a regular visit to a destination. No wonder, hotels are going that extra mile to provide these indigenous experiences.

When in Pune, do try the local Misal Pav, Vada Pav and Bhakarwadi.

Also, opt for a traditional Marathi thali.

In Kolkata, 6 Ballygunge Place and Bhojohori Manna are ideal to sink into a Bengali meal.

At Manek Chowk in Ahmedabad, post 9 at night, a night food market is set up.

Visitors can enjoy pav bhaji, Amdavadi sandwiches, kulfi, and more.

Look at that

Serving a dish in modern Indian restaurants has come a long way since the simple white plate.

!

Madhulika Dash As both diners and chefs pay attention to details, custom designed plates are not just for art’s sake, but add to the overall experience.

A

few years ago, a plate’s design was not the object of attention in a restaurant or a hotel.

Thanks to the changing dynamics of restaurants (and a larger diner’s acceptability), rather than a blank canvas for the food, the plate is now being recognised as part of the dining ‘artwork’ with a more holistic approach.

UNIQUE CONCEPT Chef-owner Sabysachi Gorai of Lavaash By Saby adds, “Outside the

58 |

September 2016

|

www.go-getter.in

menu, plates are the indulgences that promise a superlative experience ahead, and play an equally important part in the dining excitement as the food itself.”

A big reason for this change is the rise of concept restaurants, says Deepak Dangde, Executive Sous Chef, Sofitel BKC, “Today a theme or a concept determines everything in a restaurant – be it the food, the ambiance and even the crockery and tableware. The idea is to bring a wholesome experience and plates are a big part of this experience, considering the time one spends

looking at the food and the platter it is served in.” An excellent example of this is the Sodabottleopenerwala that Chef Gorai helped set up and chose aluminum crockery instead of the fancy plates as table- and serve-ware.

Interestingly though, says Rakesh Anand, VP, F&B, Habitat World, Indian Habitat Centre, “The phenomenon of creating special plates to showcase a theme or a concept isn’t new. The idea of special plates developed for state banquets in the Raj times and even before, and has been practiced by many special themed restaurants like the

C U L T U R E

C O U T U R E

Bukhara and the erstwhile La Rochelle (Oberoi Delhi) to name a few.

ADDING LOCAL FLAVOUR Agrees Gorai, who sourced out his plates from Lavaash, an Armenian cuisine based restaurant, from the local potters of Asansol (and got the rest specially made). The reasons for this, says the culinary wizard, “was two pronged: one, it gave the restaurant a unique characteristic that reflected in the dining experience as well; and two, since most were locally sourced, it made backend handling easy.”

The perks of sourcing locally was what drew Ajay Anand, Executive Chef, Pullman Aerocity, to Moradabad (the brass city of India) to design the show plates of the hotel’s fine dining Pan Asian restaurant called Honk. He says, “The idea of getting the show plate made of wood and brass was to create a new attraction on the table and to indulge the guests till the time the food appears. This extends to the cutlery too, which is again handmade and has elements of brass in it. The fact that no two set is similar often becomes a reason for good conversation and wonder. And since it’s sturdy, the maintenance is easy.”

ADDING EXCLUSIVITY However durability, easy sourcing and concept is only one part of the trend.

The other and more important factor, says Neeraj Tyagi, Executive Chef, Executive Chef, Shangri-La’s - Eros Hotel, New Delhi, “is the exclusivity.

Gone are the days when the white plate was all that was available in the market, and the only thing that the restaurants could do is play with the size and the cut. Now with competition, companies

are willing to custom-make servewares as per your specification.”

Take for instance PLUCK, a premium casual dining restaurant at Pullman Aerocity, uses hand-crafted pillow (plates) from Searax (a premium tableware maker) to serve the food.

Another example of how the tableware world has changed is the Glass Studio.

Chef Dangde further elaborates, “This has turned chefs into quasi artistes who not only decide what kind of canvas they want the food to be displayed, but

also becoming a part of making them to get the kind of dining experience they envisioned to the guest.”

THE UNCONVENTIONAL PATH How well the use of custom-made (quirky) tableware can affect the dining experience has been effectively showcased by brands like Olives, Sevilla at The Claridges, Indian Accent and Farzi Café among others. Take for instance, Masala Library by Jiggs Kalra, which became the first one to

get the show plate – which has almost disappeared in around the mid 1970s for a cleaner chic look – back in vogue. The motive behind bringing back the show plate and the crockery, says Zorawar Kalra, MD, Massive Restaurants, “was to create the ripple effect that starts with the eye and ends with the food experience. After all, you always begin eating with your eyes first.”

Creating that ‘sigh effect’ was in fact the reason behind Indian Accent commissioning a reputed home appliance brand to create the miniature pressure cooker that is used to serve the palate cleanser (anardana shorbet) during the course meal at this modern Indian restaurant. It was, adds Anand,

Hand-painted plates were an object of affection back in the Roman Empire, where the richness would be determined by the plate that arrived on the table – and not the food solely. Such fascinated Romans were with their plates that breaking a plate was often correlated with mourning.

“the prime reason why sizzler plates were created, and recently the granite slate saw a comeback as a plate of choice to serve tandoor items.” Or, for that matter, says Chef Tyagi, “jars and margarita glasses were especially reworked to serve desserts.”

Chef Gorai explains, “Apart from the visual appeal, food science plays a crucial role in the choice of certain plates like the wooden slab used to serve pizza and the beaten brass handi for biryani.

Also, food served in earthen pots, or soup in stoneware taste infinitely better than those in ceramic or porcelain.”

However, adds Paul Kinny, Culinary Director, Phoenix Market City that owns Craft and Shizusan, “while creating a fine balance of sight appeal, exclusivity and durability, it is also important to have dishes that make eating food fun.

the easiness to pick food that gets stuck on when it gets cold. Also the fact that they are lighter than most heavy plates at restaurant makes it easy for people to handle it (without much care as it is durable). Craft, which is a Bistro, has more of café like plates where the food determines the plate – like pizza is best served on a wooden base so it retains the earthiness of the pizza, makes slicing easy and looks brilliant, likewise for the dual-tone bowl for salads that make it interesting plate to present but also easy to have a meal.”

The mix of functionality and quirkiness, says Kalra, “is in fact the key essential while choosing a plate for the table, even for a show plate.” Likewise for Chef Gorai where he chose a typical tangine to present his mushroom manti (an Armenian style ravioli). “The thing about plates is it doesn’t only pique your curiosity but also tells you an interesting story – and funnily.”

Maharaja Pratap Singh Gaekwad of Baroda ordered the most unusual porcelain dinner service from Royal Worcester in 1947–48 with vivid images of Hindu deities like Radha Krishna and Brahma.

Maharaja Bhupinder Singh of Patiala ordered a dinner set of silver gilt for 30,000 pounds back in 1921 from the Goldsmiths and Silversmiths Company specially for a dinner he was hosting for Edward, Prince of Wales.

Retire

rich!

In a time of rising expenses, ponder over your saving strategy, so you don’t fear, instead welcome your retirement phase.

Retirement may be one of the most sought after phases of our lives, when we want to sit back and relax, but to ensure comfortable sunset years, it is important to have a proper plan in place.

Pranjali Bhonde

T

his is the time when your regular income stream diminishes but expenses like healthcare and living shoot up. So if you have all the time and no money, you possibly cannot ‘rake in the moolah’! We share a few basic tips to help you prepare for your retirement...

START EARLY The benefits of an early start cannot be stressed enough. Today, for young earners, spending is more important than saving.

Approximately 80-90% don’t start planning for their retirement until after the first five years of their career. Thus, the small sum that you would otherwise require if you

86 |

September 2016

|

www.go-getter.in

started early, has already burgeoned into a gargantuan amount.

Starting early helps amass larger sums that may be difficult at a later stage.

Moreover, the power of compounding favours those who start investing early.

Longer time horizons have a higher multiplier effect. An early start puts a lesser burden on your finances as it requires a smaller outflow. For instance, if you target a corpus of one crore, you need to save only `9,618 if you were to start when you are 25 years old than if you were to start five years later.

What could be more alarming is that your appetite to invest in certain assets decreases with time and it reduces your ability to take risks.

SAVE PLENTY If you plan out too little life insurance or medical insurance, it may hamper your goals of retiring rich. They say there is no wealth better than health, so there should be sufficient cover for your medical expenses.

Moreover, the cost of medical services is seeing a rise by 2-3% each year. Thus, it becomes imperative to save enough for a rainy day.

Life insurance should approximately be 6-7 times the annual income of the individual. However, the correct estimation would be that it must be big enough to cover the individual’s expenses such as children’s higher education, marriage, etc.

Another key in knowing how much to save is ‘not splurging on items that you do not need’.

CHURIDAR ANKLE 3/4 Today, youngsters live in the moment. A major portion of the salary is spent on items not needed. Also, with the prevalence of plastic money, expenses often overshoot the salary.

Here’s a simple example to show how splurging can prove detrimental to your long term gains:

Present cost

Dent in corpus after 20 years

New shoes

3500

23,546

Vacation

30000

2,01,825

Diamond ring

100000

6,72,750

New phone

64000

4,30,560

Items you splurge on

Assuming an interest rate of 10% p.a.; figures are in Rupees

POSTPONE YOUR RETIREMENT While for most, the retirement age is 60 years, some continue working even further. Although, this may not be possible in most companies, some firms allow their retired staff to work on part-time basis, while others establish their entrepreneurial enterprises. This can make a significant difference because the longer you work, the longer you will be able to postpone digging into your retirement corpus.

DIVERSIFY YOUR ASSETS Holding a single class of asset may not always be a good idea. Equities may offer higher returns in the long run but could well eat into your retirement corpus when markets fall. Alternatively, holding a portfolio of just bonds may mean missing out on much of the return potential.

Thus, your asset allocation will ultimately depend on a number of factors: your personal willingness to risk your retirement savings, the number of years you have before you retire and the level of risk you need to take in order to achieve your investment goals.

Moreover, there are several saving options available in the market like PPF and bank deposits. If you are not covered by EPF, you can open a PPF account, which has an annual investment limit of Rs 1.5 lakh under 80C.

PLAN AN INCOME FOR LIFE With rising prices, increasing healthcare costs and higher life expectancy, you need to plan not only for retirement, but also choose a plan that continues to pay you an income throughout your retired life. Thus, one of the best options would be opting for annuities, which is an insurance product that pays out regular income for investors who want to receive a steady income stream post retirement.

Investing in NPS (National pension scheme) might be a good idea especially with last year’s budget having offered an additional deduction of Rs. 50000 for contributions to NPS. This year’s proposal of making 40% of the corpus at maturity, tax free, has made the deal sweeter.

ou want to be chic but you want to be functional too, because you could be travelling first class but the tarmac does not forgive anyone. Not everyone can race through a security line in branded pumps sans incident.

travelling. But that was another era when people had time.

Today, we are on the clock and one isn’t surprised if the queue to check-in looks like adults lined up to brush their teeth. Yes, the I-just-rolled-out-of-bed look coupled with the night pyjamas are comfortable, exponentially, but c’mon, a little stylish twist never hurt anyone. Also, keep in mind you could be travelling straight from work or need to be heading to work at touchdown.

What’s to be worn, then?

We’ve scraped some voguish commands that will help you travel looking comfortably chic en route.

QUICK TIPS

Dress simply and avoid wearing clothes that can get wrinkled easily.

Carry socks as they help in keeping your feet warm and protected.

Mix and match with different styles

Go hands-free with a cross-body bag: There is so much you’re juggling whilst travelling, carry-on, tickets, laptop, book, back-pack, etc. This is where the magical cross-body bag comes in. Go hands-free and thumb your way through that book cosily.

Lug your blanket scarf: It may seem bulky but when you snuggle into it on your journey, you’ll thank your stars you carried it. Open it up as a blanket if you want to nod off, bunch it up around your collar for a stylishly laid back look.

Keep an oversized sweater handy: Don’t bother with slim cardigans and choosy knits. Instead, opt for a trendy oversized sweater that will not ride up or bunch up uncomfortably while you navigate those escalators and the like. A slightly slouchy choice is also bang on trend.

A comfortable bodysuit, perhaps: If you travel a lot, you must invest in one of these. A body suit is a great asset for the frequent traveller as it’s supremely comfortable. A bodysuit does not move an inch or bunch up uncomfortably.

Layering is an art, learn it: Air travel, more often than not, means change in weather.

Once the air-conditioning starts after taking off, that added layer or two really helps. Learn to layer elegantly and you’ll never find dressing up for travel a task.

Have you got your sunnies: You could use your sunglasses even while sleeping to block out any light. Grab a pair of stylish ones that add an instant pop to your look.

A tailored coat saves the day: Wear your oldest PJs as long as you throw this coat on as you saunter down the tarmac. With outerwear being stylish, no one will peep in.

Slip into mules: Mules are really comfortable and also functional when travelling. You don’t have to bother with laces or discomfort. Perfect for travel, loafers without the back or flat mules are ideal and also save you a lot of heart burn during security checks and long flights.

Abandon buckles, laces & straps. You never know when you’ll have to run to catch that flight.

Minimise jewellery and pokey items.

Opt for stacked bracelets and long chains that can be easily removed.

Carry moisturiser and lip balm to maintain supple and smooth skin.

In pursuit of excellence In its ninth year of existence, the Siksha ‘O’ Anusandhan University (SOA) in Bhubaneswar is reckoned as a hub of superlative professional education in the east. With its focus on research and emphasis on a strong academic foundation, this multi-disciplinary temple of learning has carved out a niche for itself.

The multi-campus infrastructure dots the landscape encompassing the historic Khandagiri and Udayagiri hills and is home to around 10,000 students. SOA has been adjudged as the 16th best university in the country in the rankings conducted by the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) recently. NAAC has re-accredited it with ‘A’ Grade for the second time.

The foundation for the university was sown when visionary educationist Prof.

Manojranjan Nayak set up the Institute of Technical Education and Research (ITER) in 1996. The institute is today regarded as one of the finest engineering colleges in the eastern region. The launching of ITER triggered the blossoming of other institutions imparting education in medicine,

management, pharmaceutical sciences, biotechnology, nursing, dental sciences and hospitality and tourism management. The SOA University came into existence on July 17, 2007 when the HRD Ministry conferred on it the status of a Deemed to be University under section 3 of the UGC Act, 1956.

Ever since, institutes providing education in legal studies and agriculture have come up under the SOA umbrella.

The University’s Multi-disciplinary Research Cell and Micro-mechanical System (MEMS) Design Centre (with IISc collaboration) are engaged in exemplary research activities such as RF Mems, Bio Mems, Signal Analysis, Embedded System, Video Surveillance, Bio Medical Signal and Image Analysis. The University set up the Centre of Excellence in Theoretical and Mathematical Sciences (CETMS) with the objective of promoting advancement of research in frontier areas of science including High Energy Physics, Condensed Matter Physics and various branches of pure and applied Mathematics subsequently.
