Haryanvi Cuisine Note

Delhi trip was an unplanned journey and I came across to meet my self  with Haryani people,who are traditional in nature ,thought and cuisine ,I started to stay with the same locality and they started chat with me everyday,most often the old ladies aged fifty who had no work in home used to visit and narrate their life story with me ,it was really interesting to see them talking to me being happy and most often they describe food variety they know.More than seven years I have spent there and I enjoy every festivals there and love to be part of the community where multicultural people stand in same ground and speak about their culture and enjoy days as in Salad bowl.

The language,cuisine and food   are owesome ,you feel wonderful to follow them regularly as they are very social but they seem so traditional I often feel their devotion to cultural shows  like mata ki chowki and other jagaran cannot be narrated .But I love most the cuisine they offer to me on regular basis.
