Indian Food

Gujarat is essentially a vegetarian state.  This was a delight for Dr Anne.

Gujarati cuisine refers to the cuisine of Gujarat, India. Despite having an extensive coastline for seafood, it is primarily a vegetarian cuisine due to the influence of Jain vegetarianism and traditional Hinduism. The typical Gujarati Thali consists of RotliDal or KadhiRice, and Shaak/Sabzi (a dish made up of different combinations of vegetables and spices, which may be spicy or sweet). Gujarati cuisine varies widely in flavour and heat, depending on a given family's tastes as well as the region of Gujarat they are from. North GujaratKathiawadKachchh, and Surti Gujarat are the four major regions of Gujarat that all bring their own style to Gujarati food. Many Gujarati dishes are distinctively sweet, salty, and spicy at the same time.

Below is the Last Supper in a restaurant in Ahemdbad.

When the group entered the restaurant, the drivers said they would be back in an hour.  The group looked at each other.  However, one hour was sufficient.  This was the equivalent of Gujarati fast food.
