MASKA BUN :The Legacy...


When i reached Ahmeda bad I knew nothing about the city ,its people ,their cultures and the eating habits.

 

Now it is almost 5 weeks that I am in Ahmedabad and the one thing that got close to my heart is the MUSKA BUN.

Mornings or evenings..the favorite fast food here is this muska bun.

 

Pani poori(golgappe,fuchke,foolki and many other synonyms) are just killing you cant even think of having them,chat is very rare so whats left is Muska bun.However it is not a compulsion to eat the bun but you will be automatically charmed towards it as you go on living here . 


It is essentially a normal bun with jam or butter(jam,butter etc. are called muska) and it is just delicious.

 

Morning tea with muska,evening coffee with muska..so it goes..one day you get muska addict.

 

You cant find Any liqour shop at ahmedabad it is banned here so you may guess why a wife here shouts at her husband like this,"You Rascal,again sitting at the mohans hotel...You just cant you spend your money on something better than this bun.Come home I will make you taste the real muska my broom and sandals are waiting.."

 

Elderly people find their friends at shops they all enjoy their youthful memories and college times stories but never forget to have muska bun on the table.


 It is a legacy.It is the lifestyle.And i have no shame in confessing that I am addicted to it.In place of my afternoon lunch I have Muska...so you know...


 The deadly muska will follow you...you just cant resist it....

 

Enjoy....
