Let me do some 'research'. :P <br /><br />@Srinidhi: Thanks. :) The biryani is one of the main reasons I can't bring myself to leave Hyderabad. I've put on so much of weight because of it, you know! <br /><br />@Loony: Do try and let me know. :)<br /><br />@Saru: It was the inn-keeper who sold the recipe. To another travelling monk in exchange for vodka. But that's another story. :P<br /><br />@Vineeth: Thanks! :)<br /><br />@Musings: I don't like whiskey at all. And biryani is an all-seasons dish. Even in the terrible heat of winter, I have relished it with o qualms whatsoever.<br /><br />@Destiny's Child: I wish I was high when I wrote it. It would've been a more elaborate fable then. :P But no, I wrote this in office. To be honest, this title had been running around in my head for many days. So I thought why not build a story around the title. :)<br /><br />@Kanthu: Same pinch. Even I switched to it for economic reasons. And then started liking it. Not hooked to it yet, though. :) I haven't tasted it with lime pickle yet. WIll try it soon. <br />'Quater' sounds so much more fun than 'quarter'. :DSpaceman Spiffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05143505093943885418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008635650302032737.post-51236374523224233052011-09-28T21:36:49.763-07:002011-09-28T21:36:49.763-07:00*Same pinch*

Though I started consuming it on purely economic basis, I'm now hooked to it. And how much do take..??<br />I need atleast a "Quater" for Lord Vishnu to come say cheers to me.<br />And have u tasted it with Lemon pickle..?? If not, go try it.<br />Nothing tastes better with alcohol than a packet of 1Re lemon pickel.<br /><br />P.S: I know the spelling of Quarter.<br />A Quarter is 1/4th of a Full &<br />a Quater is 180ml of alcohol...;pKanthuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03023984334478251160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008635650302032737.post-55802376339414475612011-09-28T12:37:02.850-07:002011-09-28T12:37:02.850-07:00What a lovely tale of monk, biriyani and rum!

But an even better choice would be skotch whisky. A 90ml of skotch whiskey neat (no water.. a little cold water, if u insist).. the molten gold with the good ol hyderabadi biryani would be perfect. This was my welcome meal in HiTech city last week.. superb it was..try it this winter if you canMusings of a Troubled Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04426178300353423046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008635650302032737.post-36683125755756064162011-09-28T09:52:50.238-07:002011-09-28T09:52:50.238-07:00Wow!
