Hi Everyone who miss VVN,
When i try to find "Purohit Khichadi" recipe, this page is pop up. During reading the whole page, the picture of VVN was just in front of my eyes. What a golden days. I really misses all food you mention in the page.
I heard from friends from VVN that VVN is change so much in last 6-7 years. I really want to visit again and want to fill that old days again.
I still fill water in my mouth after I read about the great teasty food.....
Anyway thanks for refresh old golden memory of VVN life.
