Or do Tamil marriages have 4-5 different small buckets per person?<br /><br />On the topic of small buckets, some restaurants here in Punjab/Haryana/Himachal/Delhi serve daal and subzi (with gravy) in buckets. I have noticed most such buckets have a thick base :-)<br /><br />I have never had sambhar in a bucket, though. Such small things go a long way in making the food experience worthwhile. Otherwise we could all get stuff delivered to our homes or hotel rooms.<br /><br />Hope your dosa tasted as good as it looks!KKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16778157916183036144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636808797927234183.post-57273284981282181562017-06-18T10:45:54.780-07:002017-06-18T10:45:54.780-07:00Thanks for your comments Rajesh.
