Alpine Retreat : Best Homestay In Guwahati : A Review

 If you are looking for a best homestay in Guwahati, then I will highly recommend to check out the  Alpine retreat homestay, a lovely urban apartment at the right of the  heart of the area.  During our last visit to Guwahati, we had decided to stay at a homestay instead of staying in a hotel. The reason of choosing a homestay over a hotel is that we wanted a homely atmosphere and a homestay is a kind of accommodation where tourists are treated like guests, not clients and they are given rooms to stay together with the host family in the same house. A homestay is after all someone's home. In homestay we don't have to confined in a single room just like in a hotel.

Bio Tableware By Mrinaljyoti Rehabilitation Center

  * This post is not a sponsored post. Disposable tableware have become indispensable in wedding, picnic and birthday parties. Usually paper plates are most commonly used. Paper plates can be composted after we eat on these plates,  as the food contaminates those. These plates also can be recycled if we don't eat on it. But all paper plates are not always bio-friendly. Some paper plates come with polythene sheet coated to make leak proof. These types of paper plates cannot be composted if we eat on it and cannot be recycled if we don't eat on it. Moreover trees are need to cut to make paper tableware.  There are several types of bio-friendly tableware. One of such is disposable leaf plates and bowls made from sheath of betel-nut tree.

Fish Curry with Dry Elephant Apple (Ou Tenga)

Hey there!  I'm back again, after a long time. It's more than six months now, that I haven't written a single word in my blog. Sometimes staying motivated  to keep posting new posts everyday isn't so easy. But, I am back with a new recipe now. It's a simple Assamese style fish curry recipe or masor tenga cooked with dry elephant apple ( ou tenga ).  Dillenia indica, commonly known as elephant apple (ou tenga in Assamese) is used as a souring agent in Assamese cuisine.  We can eat both raw (by making a chutney) and cooked elephant apple. Assamese people eat ou tenga by adding it in lentil curry (dail) and by making sour fish curry (masor tenga). We can also preserve elephant apple by just sun drying it. At first let me share the recipe of Sun dried elephant apple.  Sun Dried Elephant Apple : INGREDIENTS: 1 elephant apple  METHOD: STEP 1  Remove the petals of the elephant apple with the help of a sharp knife.  STEP 2 Cut the soft petals into small slices.  STEP 3 Put
