Pritam Singh, and Meat for teeth

FOr all good reasons that drive me to it, I am a 'very' Non-Vegetarian person. There is somethin abt "meat under the teeth" which my appetite strictly adheres to.

Babeli Base camp provided us wid some cooked edibles which were distinctly devoid of chicken. Ben an I both of us were extremely disappointed and decide not to give up. Group in KC and we head out fer a stroll hoping to have a decent meal. turns out not one of the dhabas there serve non-veg food. Fact was not jus disappointing but very disheartening. nevertheless we wud not give up an we take our walk farther, jus so we might as well scope out our surrounding area.

The white waters runnin beside the road, of the river Beas were so vibrant and energetic.In every curve the rapids grew stronger.everythin abt himachal it seemed, had its own charm to it.


We Passed by a souvenir place filled wid crafted decoratives. petty but handicrafted. We get to see how Shawls, the famous woolen wraps, were woven. they literally thread their livelihood.


We stalled our walk fer some fruit extract juice. tangy and refreshing, plus, we had an additional entertainment to watch a playful school of fish in a pool.with our drink done we take back to steps an passed over this gruesomely horrific 'dragon' carved from driftwood by a Baba.A middle aged dude dressed in long orange clothes. not jus that, he had a whole collection of his psychotic-art. There was no doubt that the stubb in his mouth was a joint. too bad we cudnt score. dat dude was definately havin a bad trip.


Before we got outta that scare, hunger panged in our stomachs. We questioned the locals one and too many if we cud find some place to have a decent meat meal. The roads curved to emptiness and disappontment. our last hope walked by to us downhill. An Elderly chap who seemed to be quite amused by 3 stooges craving for chicken. He lets a chuckle after another and leads us to a place where he claimed, a meal of our choice cud be arranged.and so it was.At his very Own Dhaba.we Had to buy some freshly skinned chicken and get it cooked.Jaggu the cook made the wait worthwile. We diced the time with some Splendid tea and the leisure of lighting up. before a few tunes from bollywood ended from the player in shack, the food was ready.

Ben KC an I were Never so hungry for chicken. the crave built up a scrumptuous appetite. and the meal was absolutely delicious. Atlast we found our Sneak out non veg snack shack.

Pritam Singh da Dhaba.
