scribblings

One fine evening some time last week, on my way back from my usual evening walk, i decided to not try my luck at Mess for grub and decided to eat at Sangeetha. On my way back, 4th wing gumbal said, there was a frog found in the shit rice they served at godav.

Since quite a long time now, i have been hoping that mess food would atleast be close to something eatable atleast today. Hope Floats. The plot of quality of food against the time of the days is an exponential decay function. Breakfast is by far the best they make, atleast on the days i eat breakfast. This has become fairly regular of late, coz i m auditing a course in A Slot and hence grub in mess before i go to class. Though lesser, the lunch is atleast something u can close ur eyes and nose and just swallow down the throat. Here, I must borrow the following expression used in a recent tamil movie to give a better description.

"yellow water in the name of dal, dal water in the name of sambar, cow's urine in the name of rasam, paper in the name of papad..." and the list goes on.



Dinner is the least palatable. See the above plot to get a complete picture. The circadian rhythms are completely followed in the behaviour, within allowed error limits. I have never been able to eat fully the infinitisimally small amount of food i serve on my plate for dinner. Almost every other day, i help myself to some restaurant in the city or somebody invites me to a free dinner somewhere. And now, the feather in the crown is this Frog Biriyani.

Oh did i forget, the Mess Authorities have tried a new receipe for the non-vegetarians who would suffer the absence of chicken in the fear of 'Avian Influenza'. So what else would they try and innovate in making new dishes. Let me speculate.

Now that there are even reports of mammals being affected, Reptiles would have to be used for substituting the Aves. Cockroach will be one of the important things used in the cuisine. The legs and Antennae for garnishing and decorating. Frogs and Toads will go as substituent for Chicken. One could use Lizard for the occasional delicacy. Of course, Pythons are always there for the main course, with apples stuffed in their mouth. It could of course be a sinful combo of any of the above mentioned stuff and yeah, if u suddenly notice your wing cat or pup missing, dont ever worry, its gonna be happily sleeping in the oven to get to your dinner plate. Not to forget the special, Bugs special receipe, Witch Sandwitch.

I am not going to describe more and cause nausea to many a reader, so me stops here. The post however, could have a second part...
