This weekend expedition was to.... ?? Take a wild guess! Select Citywalk.
Sanjiv and I looked at Air Conditioners, while Anna took a short walk around the mall. As we exited Croma, facing Krispy Kreme, I asked Anna what he would like to eat - a Rava Masala Dosai at Sarvana Bhavan or a coffee and doughnut at Krispy Kreme. I should have known better than to ask that question!
Anna: "Rava Masala Dosai, and coffee"
We make our way to the Sarvana Bhavan outlet (that he does not remember from our last visit there), get a couple of dosais and vadais and eat outside under an overcast sky.
After he finishes half a dosai and coffee (that was not as hot as he wanted it!), Sanjiv pats his stomach and asks him, "Anna, is your stomach full? Feeling like a pregnant woman's?"
Anna: "No." Pause. "Only like in the conception stage."
We laugh. I know that there is more to come. Then.....
Anna: "I am sure they have jaangiri."
So off we go to see if they do.
They don't.
Anna is looking downcast and kind-of pouting at this point.
We decide to get him a doughnut for dessert.
Half a doughnut and hot coffee later, Anna finally says "Now I feel pregnant!"
The stomach has been satisfied. But the jaangiri craving continues.

Finally got kesari jaangiri for Anna today. He eats 1/3rd of a jaangiri, twirls his tongue in his mouth and says “This would have been perfect with a little rose essence”. It’s hard to satisfy a connoisseur ! :-)
