CBB Series #2 ~ Chettinad Special

The past few days were so hectic and tiresome. Arjun had his Annual exams added to the high grade fever so that I had to be with him at school, wait for him and then take to the Doctor. He has been advised lots of fluid and a low exposure to sun. Thank God he is now okay and his exams are also over. Hence the delay in announcing this month's series.

As mentioned in the last series I have planned on taking forward this series with from this month based on a theme. For this series's theme I have chosen Chettinad Cuisine.

The mention of Chettinad brings to our mind a larger than life image of its people and their culture. They excelled with their sharp business acumen. Their palatial bungalows, architecture being so unique in nature that they brought into the food as well. A new genre of cuisine has been named after their region. Their local specialty cooking being known well as "Achi Samayal".  

Having said all this,let me take thru some guidelines for this event.
