Murud Janjira

September 25, 2006

(http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1562/2477/1600/murud16.jpg)_Serenity

The sound of the sea, a hammock and a book – Bliss!

Flying away

Vaishali was bang on in guessing. It was Murud Janjira indeed. 170 Kms from Bombay, an hours drive from the more popular Alibag. In fact she was so sure that she even asked me to go visit the vegetable market there. Since we were there for only 24 hours and because the sea was so inviting, we didn’t think of going anyplace else. Don’t the pictures say it all?

I’m glad my readers have liked the Chettinad Recipes’ resource. I shall be updating it regularly with recipes found from various sources. As and when I try out something, I shall post it here too. Stay tuned for a slightly modified Chettinad Tomato Pacchidi ( Chettinad style lentils with tomatoes) and that will be my 100th blog post !

    Murud Janjira is really good, Nandita. Did you stay at the MTDC resort? It’s the best place around there. And the Janjira fort is great too. Well, we can exchange notes in person once we meet up in Pune(?). 🙂

    Murud Janjira is one of the best places in Maharashtra… I have liked the most was walking at 5 am on the Murud beach on full moon night with the amazing moonlight around
