Bento By EN Brings Traditional Japanese Delicacies At Your Doorsteps In Delhi

August 23, 2021 by admin

There’s something about a sushi that makes us fall for it time and again. We agree, it’s an adapted taste -many might not like in the first go. But once you get a hang of it, there’s no looking back. And over past few years, we have seen a significant increase in the number of sushi lovers across the country; this subsequently it increased the need of authentic sushi joints everywhere in India. Delhi, being the national capital and one popular hub of sushi lovers, also saw launch of several new joints serving sushi and other Japanese delicacies.

While exploring Japanese restaurants in Delhi, we came across Bento By En – a new Japanese food delivery joint in Delhi NCR, launched in collaboration of Delhi’s popular Chinese chain Berco’s and the Seinan Group from Japan. Looking at its menu, the first impression we got are simple, minimalist and classic to the core. Without confusing its patrons, the menu gives a sneak peek into the authentic Japanese food culture. This is why we get some of the classic Japanese dishes on the menu, which goes beyond sushi. While there’s no denying the fact that sushi defines the Japanese food culture for most of us, but trust, it has much more to offer that will blow your mind with the flavours and aroma.

The menu evoked the foodies in us and we ordered for some of the yummiest dishes Japanese cuisine has to offer – chicken katsu curry, veg dimsum, pork gyoza,

August 21, 2021 by admin

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (WCJB) – A new food truck, owned and operated by veterans, is making its way across North Central Florida. Nacho Sweets Owner and military veteran Demetrius Hardaway said he was inspired to start up the truck due to his love for unique and New Orleans-inspired food.

“A lot of my friends loved my cooking so they were asking from the time I got out of the military when I was going to open a food truck,” said Hardaway.

His unique menu features a variety of items from savory wings to sweet New Orleans-style snowcones, but the truck’s signature item is fruit nachos.

“It’s pretty much a fried tortilla chip covered in cinnamon sugar and topped off with different fruits from strawberries, blueberries, kiwis, and grapes and then we have different drizzles,” said Manager Jasmine Headen.

Also a veteran and still serving the National Guard, Headen said this new business is all about bringing people together.

“We want to give back to those, you know our brothers and sisters in arms and we want them to know we’re there for them and pretty much want people to be there for us,” said Headen.

The Nacho Sweets truck has been making its way around North Central Florida for just over a month now.

Saraga international grocery brings together Hoosiers around food

August 17, 2021 by admin

Saraga is rooted in everywhere and nowhere at once. The international market is, in some ways, like traveling through a foreign airport. People are constantly in transit, briskly walking or leisurely browsing. One can hear snippets of conversations in French or Burmese or any number of other languages as they walk through the long aisles. 

Indianapolis groceries specializing in Asian, African, South American or other international products often carry more niche items and create an atmosphere that reminds shoppers of home, but Saraga has evolved to be a hub where culture is both preserved and mixed. Today, the 62,000-square-foot international market on the west side of Indianapolis is a one-stop shop for people of different backgrounds. 

“The strongest selling point for Saraga is that Saraga has the most variety of types of products,” said Brad Nam, Saraga’s marketing manager.

Rebecca Jeun shops Saturday, June 26, 2021, at Saraga International Market, 3605 Commercial Drive, Indianapolis.

Over the years, the international market has expanded to include locations in the southside and Columbus, Ohio. Today, each of the three Saragas is a place where kids shop for snacks, couples buy new foods to try and factory workers drive hours to buy crates of vegetables to freeze.

Saraga carries food from nearly every continent that are sorted into aisles based on country or region of origin, so almost everyone will encounter something they’ve never seen before. There’s a whole aisle dedicated to Asian noodles, the seafood counter carries about 100 different varieties of fish and seafood and a meat counter in the back of the store serves halal cuts.
