Everybody who has ever lived in a hostel knows that the most painful part of hostel life is the mess food. Since I had barely survived the chow doled out in the hostel mess at IITK (with severe psychological and physiological scarring to show for it!), I was really apprehensive about the 'delicacies' that I would be subjected to in the mess at IIMK. Add to it the fact that this college was nearly 2,400 kilometers from my native city and, consequently, located in a totally different gastronomical belt...to say that I was dreading my first meal in the mess would be an understatement. Here's how it unraveled...
Day I
Typical North Indian fare!!! I was pleasantly surprised...even appreciated the meal, reasonably palatable. And a nice dessert to cap the meal too, maybe life here won't be so bad after all!
Day II
Hmmm...what is this weird dish on the menu today? Lemme try it...
Aaaarggghhhhhh!!!
Day III
OMFG...do they have leftovers from yesterday??? They must have some left, they MUST!
Day IV
Why didn't I die before trying this!?

Day VIII
How the hell did I LIKE this on Day I! F**k...

Present day
F**k...
P.S: Let us take a moment to thank the greatest establishment in (almost) every campus, the eternal savior of the famished, the disgusted and the late night vigilantes...the CANTEEN!
