Yesterday was the annual Flava Food Fest over here in Manipal. The whole shindig is pretty cool, with different stalls offering different food from all over India.

It was basically Babz, Nishta and Me (Aakash was there but disappeared at the time this pic was taken).

The Trio

We figured we’d check out the stalls. Like every year, there were tons of em, each with their own unique design. Unfortch it was way too crowded (and the weather was way too hot) so we couldnt actually check out the food.

Here’s Punjab :

And West Bengal, and Bihar :

There were a lot more stalls, but it was just way to crowded to navigate through all that.

Apart from all that, there was also a couple interesting stuff going on, on the stage.

Indian Dancers FTW :

If that wasnt enough, there were CAMELS on the lawn. Camels are Cool :
