Modern love. Modern Indian dining edition.

By October 24, 2024No Comments


Tables for two come with many stories.
Such as that of a young lady who had taken her grandpa (presumably) for a treat at a fine dining modern Indian restaurant in a luxury hotel.
The waiter patiently explained the history and geography of each dish in English.
She lovingly translated this to Gujarati for grandpa who was busy clicking pictures of the food.
For Instagram?
No, he was uploading them in real time on the family WhatsApps group and excitedly telling his granddaughter about who all had seen these.
The granddaughter settled the bill and they got up to leave, grandpa shuffling ahead, granddaughter steadying him from the back.
Just as grandpa had steadied her when she was a tiny tot and he would take her out for a treat.

Ps. Like all stories, this one is based partly on observation and partly on imagination.
