One of my best birthday presents I got was the Phaidon’s INDIA COOKBOOK by Pushpesh Pant. It contains 1000 recipes and could be easyly renamed to the Indian Cooking Bible.

I have to confess that I looove cheesy romantic films and I am not ashamed of crying at all while watching them. But only on Sundays after the party weekends.
