The Great Indian Food Trip is an entertaining, erudite adventure of eating, drinking and travelling. This is how Zac O Yeah has come to understand the Indian subcontinent, his home of thirty years.

O Yeah s fast-paced yet profound account charts a writer s untiring quest for new cultural and culinary experiences. We accompany him on a spare parts tour of Shivajinagar, Bengaluru s slaughterhouse area. He shares the pleasures of drinking beer in Karnataka, toddy in Kerala; eating boiled vegetables and masala-less curries in the Mahatma s ashram; and finding the true secret of tandoori chicken in Chandigarh. He discovers Goa s literati sipping cashew feni with Orhan Pamuk and Amitav Ghosh, and finds two of his favourite foods mushrooms and cheese in shamudatsi, a Bhutanese stew.

Whether you re a lover of Indian cuisine or a wanderer seeking inspiration, this multi-course meal promises wonderful discoveries of India s delicacies, their origins and their locales. O Yeah captures India in a nutshell a big, coconut-sized one.
