Went to brunch at Misti Hub, Eco Park, Kolkata.
Durga Puja is the biggest festival for a Bengali Hindu. Come the day of dashami, a Bengali waves goodbye to the mother goddess with a heavy heart and waits eagerly all through the year for the return of these four days of festivities. He cleans up his house; plans his leave from office work days ahead; finishes up a long list of shopping for himself and his loved ones; catches up with friends, family and relatives and goes pandal hopping all through the night and last, but not the least goes on a gastronomic adventure trip with sweets forming an integral part of diet plans which has been put off the track again this year because of Durga Puja. A Bengali doesn't exist without misti.
Well expressed emotion!
