Shopping at Nature's Basket and Lunch for One

//The good part - I got myself some egg replacer, blueberries, red wine vinegar, kalamata olives, granny smith apples, white mushrooms, lettuce, and chives. The bad part is I have no idea how to use red wine vinegar or egg replacer or chives. An afternoon of indulgence cost me Rs. 1500 at  Nature's Basket.

The biggest disappointment were these Seriously Sours candy. I was expecting like a dozen lemons being squeezed inside my mouth, going by the box cover. Instead the sweets were very much edible and pleasant. What a ripoff for Rs. 150!

On my way back - a dinner for one. I find ordering in much safer than just sitting there all alone in a restaurant. Eating out alone - and actually enjoying your meal rather than just hurriedly scarfing it down - was one of my to-do items - I need to do it more often. I just sat there for a couple of hours eating (salad), drinking (celery orange apple juice), smoking indoors (one of the big draws of eating at this place!), and enjoying my meal (a chocolate dessert).

The big bowl of salad at Mocha Mojo is a real bargain. Its Rs 90 for a BIG bowl (I couldnt eat it all, I had half of it parcelled and had the remains for dinner) with your choice of dressing. I chose the honey mustard and light mayo. The salad's got lettuce, cabbage, mushrooms, corn, carrots, tomatoes, peppers, onion, and peas. I'm going to make a version of this salad myself for later.

And for dessert, I usually go for Vertigo - a stacked six layer brick of a chocolate cake, but I usually need a strappy lad with me to polish off my remains (there always are!). So this time, I chose a smaller chocolate dessert named That Chocolate Thing. Its a flourless, eggless chocolate cake, dusted with chocolate ganache, and accompanied by a scoop of chocolate icecream. I know, its got milk and is not vegan. But I'm not even sorry! An occasional treat is alright.

You're post was funny! And I love eating by myself sometimes! (I am a psychologist though, so I am sure it's because I have full reign to people watch!!!) :D
