Ok, upon request a small item in English for my non-Dutch reading fans!
Today is a semi-national holiday in India, the end of Ramadan is being celebrated during the so called Eid-festival. It is not a national holiday, so not everybody is off today. If the Indians would grant all religions in their country to have their sacred holidays as a national holiday, no one would ever work (not that they seem to work so much anyway..).
We had a meeting though and after that we went for lunch (at around 17:30). My companion suggested I would try the famous brain-curry. How could I refuse? The place he had picked he had not been to for the past 3 years, so when we entered, even he had to admit it was a little dilapidated, broken mirrors on the wall, dirty floors etc.

But it would be good, he promised. Luckily we also gotten the butter chicken curry, so I would have at least something I would eat. Once served, you cannot see that is is brains on your plate, but the thought of it makes you not want to start, at least I did not. But what the heck. It tasted strong, meaty and was overall not bad.

In and out this place in about 30 minutes we drove on. Discussing on our earlier meeting, I suddenly see a monkey climbing the electricity poles in the center of Delhi. And then I started wondering what it was that I ate......

It was also the first monkey I had ever seen in the wild.
So maybe not a little, but a lot of local flavour today....
