On sunday morning, I followed some new friends to a market place in the old part of the city. The plan was, to buy the ingredients of some Chinese dishes that Na Li wanted to prepare this evening. It was a 40 min bus ride to get there, but it was worth it. I love market places, and this one reminded me on a bazaar. The choice of vegetables, herbs and spices was very rich, in another section of the building was the meet, and outside the fishes and seafood. Sure, the hygienic standards were far lower than the european ones, but I loved the atmosphere. After we have bought the necessary things, I stayed in the area to explore the city.
I went to the MG road (Mahatma Gandhi road) which is one of the main Bangalore shopping roads. Here, you can find a good amount of international important clothing brands, european style cafés, but also more european like prizes. Not necessarily that what I need, but good to know some place, where you can get a decent espresso!

In the evening we had a great fun in preparing and cooking for hours dumplings and enoying the porc dish, all managed and wonderfully prepared by Na Li. But before writing too much, I just show the images from my daytime discoveries.
