Shahi Paneer and Onion Bhajis

Hello my dear ones...

I´m really sorry that it took so long for a new post. Where did all the time go??
I had one week off, which started with a company party, followed by some days at a friends place where I  shopped winter shoes already. O.o .....eeeks.. and then there was my birthday too.

That week was so fast, I couldn´t believe it when I went back to work on Monday, just to realise that my department chief was on sick leave..
Yeah.. no chance to start slowly, I was thrown into chaos immediately.

The result of it ? I needed some me time. Some good time.. and good food ;)
I still had some Paneer and somehow was in mood for a yummie snack too and there were so many onions that I could prepare both.

Colourful trees which slowly loose their leaves...
But it´s getting dark earlier and sun

Movie review: Chennai Express - Just laugh

So finally I watched Chennai Express in a full packed cinema in Hamburg where most of the audience was Indian. Which doubled the fun with all the cheering, whistling and clapping moments.

After all the hype and the couple of reviews I read here´s now my two cents:

This time we see Shah Rukh Khan in a different Avatar, again he is Rahul (naam toh suna hoga), but this Rahul is a 40 year old Halwai wallah (a confectioner) who is still single but ready to mingle.

After the death of his grandfather, he´s all set to get to Goa for some fun with his friends, though his grandmother requests him to take the ashes of his grandfather to Rameshwaram, one of the holiest places in India.

He just decides to fool his grandmother, telling her that he goes by train to south with the ashes, just to get off at the next station where his friends are waiting for him.

But then, parodying the train scene from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, SRK helps board the damsel in distress Deepika Padokone (Meenamaa) and the big sized goons
