Food during the survey

After the post on camp sites i thought food was the most pertinent issue and am sharing some of the images pertaining to the food related actions during the survey. The simplicity and the eco friendly practices that the colleagues followed was a learning.

Barbecuing freshly caught fish on the river bed one late evening; the ambience was surreal ……

Glasses were from bamboo, used for tea, dal and of course water; I simply fell in love with them and avoided the 2 cups we had taken with us for the rest of the "adventure" ! This pic shows 3 of them carefully placed on a "stand"...

Special local dish being cooked in bamboo… while I had had this earlier.... at the camp site it was heavenly… no spices but the taste of the "utensil" that permeates the food…

This is the "chutney" just as it was ready for being served…. primarily dry chillies crushed in bamboo… while the looks scared me initially during the later days I developed a liking for it…..

Dal on select days had bananas ….

Food we had on a large plate together …..

Sincere acknowledgements due to all colleagues and the forest department of the MADC.
