I'm a self-absorbed Bengali-Torontonian;
Fish comes to me raw, wrappend in seaweed, not cooked in curry;
I love watching thunderstorms and rain;
Sad endings make more sense to me than happy ones;
I hate empty walls.

    Thanks! You are my visitor number,

    Something with a crust


    *A random post to indulge a friend in need of a distraction*

    I'm craving something with a crust, deep fried and/or associated with cheese.
    Not sure what though.
    I've had a grilled cheese sandwich for dinner for the last three nights.
    They were good but its not what I'm craving apparently.
    Other possibilities include
    -Perogies
    -Home fries
    -Empanadas
    -Shingaras ( which a lot of people mistake for 'samosas')
    ....mmmm..shingaras, made with hand flatened dough and filled with big potato chunks cooked in 'pachforon' ( five spice). Difference from samosa? shingaras are more heavy, not as crispy but great without the requisite 'chutney'. samosa, wrapped in thin pressed sheets of dough, the kind used for spring rolls, are smaller and more often filled with minced meat or smaller chunks of potato. They are light, crispy but more oily....
    ...anyway back to the all consuming craving...what is it?
    -really good greek style Pizza ...mm olives and feta
    -Chicken shawarma from the place on Yonge north of Eglinton that serve the meat in pita pockets and stuff them with fries...they way god intended shawarma to be prepared.

    Might as well start from the top of the list and try them all.
    One is bound to stick.

    hmmm something is missing from the list.
    what is it dangit?
