pineapple fried rice

The latest entry in the fried rice saga. A careful reading of the ingredients shows that it contains "fresh pineapple" as well as "pineapple juice". Since it comes all the way from India, fresh pineapple seems impossible; not surprisingly none was detected. I still liked it, and would have it again, but as a lover of pineapple fried rice I know of several local restaurants that serve it with real chunks of pineapple.

Maybe a breakthrough in the search for the perfect picture of Malai Kofta. We were lucky enough to be seated in front of their alter-like merchandise display, which I've always liked.

A new favorite of ours at Himalaya Fresh, found in the "Roaming the Streets of India" section of their menu. If this is "street food", I like it. A bit "spicy hot", but good.

Since the price of coffee has gone up everywhere, I'm finding the selection at Trader Joe's competitive - especially since the quality seems to be consistently good. Also, the varieties seem to shift frequently with pleasantly eye-catching packaging.
