Chef standing in front of a large tree inside the restaurant. Really neat place to visit with delicious food!

Anyone want some fresh fish for dinner?  This is the display of fresh whole fish in the market, you could smell it long before you could see it!

Whole green curry chicken in the bakery ready to take home for dinner.  It looks a little interesting but their curries were pretty good, however, I did not try this one.

This one in the meat section kind of made me sick looking at it……goat mutton.  You could by goat brains to cook up for dinner (from what I hear it is a real treat).  Not sure if I could muscle through this one and pretty sure the girls would have a hard time too because goats are “pets not food” in their little world.

What a great place to eat, the kids seem to LOVE it!  Very neat idea for a restaurant…..an auto-rig shaw with a table and booths for families.  The kids can play and drive it too!

The shark mouths (see the teeth) have “digustive” salts in the bowls.  I didn’t try these because I noticed several people just using their hands to dip into the bowl instead of using the bowl to scoop it.  Love the table too, the stand is a stack of tires!

The receipt for the dinner litteraly came in a tin “bill box”.

Puppet play and music in the entry of the restaurant

A variety of delicious Indian food – curry and rice, veggies, pasta and more!

Naan….the amazing Indian bread that is served with practically every meal.

Neat fresh watermelon fruit basket, looks yummy!

And the best is for last……dessert!  Carrot cake and vanilla ice cream.  The ice cream tasted different from what we get in the USA, it almost had a creamier texture.  The carrot cake was good but not quite like my Mom’s homemade carrot cake! 🙂

Really neat Dadu Maluj Sandwiches with cool outer decorations on the outside that looked like alumimum fool and paint but it was edible.

Large waterfall outside another one of the Ohri’s restaurant buildings on the other side of town.  Most of the Ohri’s buildings had several different types of restaurants in one building.  You could choose to eat Indian, Chinese, American and once you get into the building.  Some of them you had to book a reservation in advanced to get into they were so popular.

We went to one of Ohri’s really popular restaurants an India buffet.  On this plate is a variety of meat cooked with Indian spices to try.

AMAZING Indian dish (I wish I could remember the name of it)!  It makes my stomach growl just looking at it.  It was a mix of sweet and crunchy, but it was a beans and meat mixture….so delicious!

One thing I didn’t realize until going over to India was they enjoy what we call “crunchy chicken”!  It is normal to be eating a chicken dish and find a bone.  I think they do it to add more flavor to the meal but it surprises you the first few times.  You are just more careful when you eat chicken!

The “Travel and Vacation” series is an insight into our trips together as a family and ways we relax.  Life is short and we were thrilled to have the opportunity to build memories with family and explore of of the most amazing places during our time away.  Explore with a good attitude, look for fun, and it will be an awesome trip jammed packed with positive memories.  It is refreshing having some time away from the regular routine.  Make it a once in a lifetime opportunity to meet new people and learn.  You just might see or try something new that takes your breath away!
