prince of jaipur and the ladybug sauce

the night before my cousin left, we had dinner at prince of jaipur. it's an indian restaurant at the fort and my mom works as an accountant there.

the atmosphere was very cozy: dim lights, comfy chair, indian decors (which are really very elegant and artsy!), pudristic music hehe!, at ang guests! my gash, forenjers talaga!

for the appetizer, they served this kropek-like stuff. papadum, they call it. there were also 3 sauces on the table. i didn't know if it was appropriate for the papadum, but yes, i tried each one on the papadum... the first two tasted spicy but ok. the third one, was a greenish lapot sauce. i didn't trust the looks so i tried a small amount only. geez! it actually tasted like ladybug! as in ladybugs na ni-blender! alam mo yun?!?

fortunately, wawin didn't see my reaction of distaste mwehehehe! i saw him scooping a teaspoonful on the papadum. evil me kept still. played dead. waited for his funny reaction bwahaha! so the moment came when he had to pop it in his mouth... bang! his face turned bitter and sicko! haha! i just pointed my finger at him and laughed hysterically. and told him that i actually knew it tasted ladybuggish haha! now that's what i call a "spicy" event!

here are some more interesting food that we had. not quite sure with the terms, though hehe:
  • roti - pita-bread-like thing. it was good!

  • ramasala lamb - lamb chops with sauce that tastes a bit like beef steak. tastes good with curry sauce!

  • skewer(?), consists of cottage cheese, fish, chicken, pork, shrimp wrapped in chicken and batter - i guess this is the kebabs thing! i loved the cottage cheese!

  • strawberry shake - with spices... hehe syempre joke ito. it was normal strawberry shake.


  • overall, it was good food! yummy food actually! those didn't taste super spicy (except for the ladybug sauce na pudrang pudra ang dating! gosh! i hate that!). i won't mind going back to prince of jaipur. =)

    haha, i like those green dips! sarap nga eh! (unless iba nga naman yung pag-prepare nya sa prince of jaipur)

    next time u go try chicken tikka masala, bhindi masala and roti canai. get the rasmalai for dessert and mango lassi for drinks... (hehe, obvious kung saan ako madalas kumain no? ;-) btw, mabango pa rin ako ha!!!!
