I had a Jolada rotti platter in B'lore, it was wonderful! :)

Thanks for visiting me, EC. I guess I was too busy raising children all these yrs, didn't feel like 18 yrs. My family there are doing very well so it's all good. We were all happy to see each other but back to our daily life now. May be in 4yrs, I will make a trip again!

Take care, see you in Fall.
