Mylai food fest 2014

Thanks to FB and Sridhar for letting all of us about this Mylai fest...This fest is about Mylapore and its history...You also have kolam and other competitions conducted as a part of this event..People display their beautiful arts and it is definitely an eye candy.

This event is organized by Sundaram finance and for the first time I was there!yippee...

The food fest street was too crowded...Perhaps today is the last day of the event and perhaps it is a holiday as well...We did not have  space to walk and people pushed us :)But still we kept going just for the sake that we need to enjoy the fest :)

First we started with paal kozhakattai :)steamed rice flour dumpling in rich milk :)It was real yum :)

The next on the plate was keerai vadai :)first time I ate it as I always  loathe greens :)It was yummy too...especially the tangy tomato chutney!awe yummy :)

The next choice was mangalore bonda...It was too soft and accompanied with coconut chutney...It is one of the best dishes of the fest...

We then had dhahi vadai(yet another good dish),cauliflower bajji,carrot halwa,sweet and savoury paniyaram,spring roll and sago bonda(another yummy dish)...

Finally ended it with fresh cut fruits and paneer soda from Viji cool drinks..The goli paneer soda was too good!

If you are wondering what the cost of each dish would be?Then I tell you,it is Rs20 to Rs30 maximum... okeyish quantity…

The dishes were good and clean.And it was a different experience indeed!

Felt I was in VV puram bangalore(where you have a street devoted to food)...

I wish event like this should be organized often so that we would get a chance to try different dishes and relish the same...Kudos to Mylai fest and looking forward for next year :)
