by the time we get to india (july 10) it will be too late for alphonsoes, langdas and daseris but i hope we'll get to eat some good ones anyway. anyone know what we might expect in delhi around that time? in the meantime some bad news:
does anyone know what varieties come out of orissa? these past few days i've really been enjoying the last of our most recent box of peruvian mangoes. there's one left--the 3 most recent ones ripened perfectly and were almost comparable to good indian mangoes (just didn't have the depth of flavor of the langda). -------------------- yeh sab kya ho raha hai, beta duryodhan? arnab@anothersubcontinent.com |
