I have cooked for around 25 people in my College canteen/Ecole d'Arts in france!

j'en ai marre des epices Madras hot curry !! why m i saying that frustrated ?
I bought a masala in Indian street : gare du Nord, ( south indian quarter)
it said coriander...means Dhaniya in hindi? ? I used it for cooking ,dal ,aloo sabzi etc. Beleive me ,it gave a bitter taste ! Sorry to say, but since then I am afraid to buy any local masala packet from this Market....i think they are meant for Dosa curry ! I dont know how to use this spice ?

Indian uncle jees: Namasté
Why , I dont know !
Each time it happens§ with me here..
This time I was with my cousin bro, showing him around Paris.
There at Arc de Triomphe( resembles Indian Gate), saw many indian tourists.
They heard that i was telling my bro about the timings of monuments and planning day !
One Uncle ji asked : Hello, U know what time shops /shopping close here...
I told them, 6 ya 7 baje tak !!HE was with another Uncle ji.
They both got interested in me , looking over me from the height of 6 +feet..
Then they started shooting. My bro sat aside ,enjoying fresh air under the sun .
Uncle jis asked, so since how many yrs u r here, what do u do here. When i said, Fine arts. Laughingly he said " oh ya ya Of course, That explains why u r here " .
Where u r from ? Delhi,Uncle ji.. Ohh I have been to Delhi many times.
Where r u from Uncle ji : Bombay. ohh ! i see .
D o u know some good indian Restaurants here in Paris.......
I know one here, other here...etc...gave addresses ! (i shud become agent)!
Then He asked ,where in Delhi ?? Avoiding telling, I said : NORTH WEST.
HE guessed right man : rohini.
THEN was the LIMIT. I called back my cousin, saying : come ,we have to go now !!
Then I fought with my bro, having left me alone with Uncle jees.. HE said : I understood when they started asking Qs..that they would not need me at all, but needed you.
(May be I should not continue to answer them...i learnt).And brother's duty to save his sis, acc to Indian traditions ??

Oui, English to French !!
when i was working in Louvre Museum, everyday i left behind me thousands of visitors...
Hearing how well fluent i was in english, a french speaking man, asked me 'vous parlez francais ?' : do u speak french ? In his own country,in the reputed rich french museum the poor guy had to ask that to a employee...to seek help in buying his ticket. i was surprised, so i asked him " who ? me ? yes of course !!"
this is nothing. once i was helping a french guy out with his ticket thing (this time in french ofcourse), and someone called me from behind," excuse me.." actively i replied 'yes?' the same FAQss..!!
Having satisfied this visitor ,then when i came back to this french speaking guy in front of me, i continued with him in ..guess what? !! in english forgetting we were talking in french..
"ya, so Please insert 10, 20 or 5 euros..try these !". man said "yes, i am "..then with a pause of few minutes he asked me " mais pourquoi vous me parlez en anglais ?" ( but why the hell was I talking to him in english suddenly)
ohhh!! Not even aware this silly girl continues..."did i speak english with u ?" Man replied " Oui, vous avez dit ...please try these euros for..." !! Oh i apologized !!I was about to explose in a big laughter, but i controlled. I said "oh je suis désolée , mais ca arrive ". Working all the day with much more of my english brought me to this situation. Actually I was very happy ,after such a long time I was gettig to speak english freely and with Britishers, americans, australians and....Indians !
