Back then in 2003, following cyber revolution; one more revolution happened, "Chinese" revolution. No, don't think otherwise. China is still very much under communist rule. But chinese food here in India did revolutionize people's taste. It took food, road-side vendor's industry by storm. One could see Chinese joints springing up at every nook and corner. Success of chinese food had many factors like a different taste, fast cooked and many other factors.
I was skeptical about the whole thing and never dared to try it out. But slowly I started visiting them with my cousin who had craving for different food and great courage to put his stomach at stake. Anyway, within few visits I became acquainted with this Chinese thing and felt like words schezwan, fried rice, manchurian, hakka noodles etc are hindi words (Mumbai's Hindi is funnily imperfect, so the comparo).
In the month of May, when everybody enjoys summer vacations, wannabe engineers like me slog out because of exams. My family had gone to my native & I was all alone at home during one such summer. One fine evening, I was feeling lazy to cook anything, even a Maggie. I sensed an ideal opportunity to try Chinese food. The only problem was I had no company. My cousin who usually accompanied me to these Chinese joints, was out of town. My brother & a friend Sandeep was unavailable too. But how could it be the reason to skip opportunity of tasty Chinese food & I started towards one of the famous joint we frequented before.
