Delhi Food and Travel Guide

Pages : 105
Book Description
Eat Your World’s Delhi Food & Travel Guide is the third in a series of eBook destination guides from Eat Your World that spotlights a region’s best traditional dishes and drinks, and tells you where to find them. For this edition, readers are directed to 43 quintessential foodie experiences in Delhi, India. Delhi, India’s high-profile capital, is truly a culinary melting pot, and a food culture to the core: Good eats are everywhere—on street corners, in temples, on trains, in restaurants of countless cuisines—and when people aren’t eating, they’re drinking (tea, usually). But in this dynamic, perpetually traffic-clogged city of 22 million (give or take), finding authentic local food can be intimidating—and highly regrettable if you eat the wrong thing in the wrong place. Well, this guide has done the delicious dirty work for you. These 43 traveler-tested, EYW-approved foods and drinks are your crash course in real-deal Delhi cuisine: the Mughlai- and Punjabi-derived dishes (the bold spices, creamy curries, and hearty breads that dominate northern India), the tangy-spicy street chaat, the Muslims’ kebabs, the Hindus’ vegetarian specialties. It will take you from the back alleys of labyrinthine Old Delhi to the bustling Connaught Place business district, from an upscale tea room to a streetside breakfast vendor. As a bonus, this eBook also includes a local-food guide for Agra, the nearby site of the Taj Mahal. Within this comprehensive food and travel guide, you’ll find the following: --What to Eat: 43 iconic foods and drinks in Delhi, with well-researched descriptions, historical/cultural context, and vivid photographs --Where to Eat: specific restaurant/vendor recommendations for each dish, including Google map links to locations --How to Burn It Off (tips for activities, including where to walk and take yoga) --Where to Stay (accommodation recommendations) --a restaurant guide for all featured dishes and drinks --a bonus Agra food guide, for Taj Mahal visitors

Pogrom in Gujarat
Author: Parvis Ghassem-Fachandi
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691151776
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
In 2002, after an altercation between Muslim vendors and Hindu travelers at a railway station in the Indian state of Gujarat, fifty-nine Hindu pilgrims were burned to death. The ruling nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party blamed Gujarat's entire Muslim minority for the tragedy and incited fellow Hindus to exact revenge. The resulting violence left more than one thousand people dead--most of them Muslims--and tens of thousands more displaced from their homes. Parvis Ghassem-Fachandi witnessed the bloodshed up close. In Pogrom in Gujarat, he provides a riveting ethnographic account of collective violence in which the doctrine of ahimsa--or nonviolence--and the closely associated practices of vegetarianism became implicated by legitimating what they formally disavow. Ghassem-Fachandi looks at how newspapers, movies, and other media helped to fuel the pogrom. He shows how the vegetarian sensibilities of Hindus and the language of sacrifice were manipulated to provoke disgust against Muslims and mobilize the aspiring middle classes across caste and class differences in the name of Hindu nationalism. Drawing on his intimate knowledge of Gujarat's culture and politics and the close ties he shared with some of the pogrom's sympathizers, Ghassem-Fachandi offers a strikingly original interpretation of the different ways in which Hindu proponents of ahimsa became complicit in the very violence they claimed to renounce.
