Extraordinary Experiences #7
“To experience time travel, read. To achieve immortality, write.”
– James Clear
We recently had children and I have been thinking alot about what I would leave them. While I certainly do not have the answers, I hope someday they will discover the map of Extraordinary Experiences and we will be able to connect long after I am gone. I wish them nothing but a life of extraordinary experiences.
The austere fish thali is probably the most common meal across coastal India. No matter what state, if you are near the water, the odds are there is a fish thali on every street corner. The best way to get into an argument with a group of Indians is to debate which fish thali is the best. It doesn't really matter -- it's the dish that is so special. The perfect combination of curry, pickles, vegetables, crab, clams, and fried fish -- an aquarium on a plate.
The Tukaram thali is special because the curry is prawn, not the usual fish curry. Just like sushi is about the rice, not the fish, the thali is about the curry. This thali which is the equivalent of an omakase meal will set you back a whopping 3 US Dollars. Who said the best things in life are free? The most special thing about the thali, is that it is a table for one. A perfect balanced meal requiring nothing but you.
For those that rarely eat alone, I would highly recommend it. A wise man once told me; speak, only if you can improve on silence.
At Savor, we are curators whose mission is to help people savor life through extraordinary experiences. Welcome to the future of travel.
