    I have been living in the US for about 40 years. Vegetarian food always has been a problem for me. If I could visit Chennai, I would love to take one of your courses.

    I once tried to make dal thove - this was before I discovered your site. It was barely edible -- this is saying it kindly.

    10 dishes for 500 people in 3 hours? Hats off to you.
