I have known the founders of Ancestreats father for many years. While we have sort of stopped talking business sometime back, I treat him like a friend, with whom I can exchange thoughts and jokes and I realize how fortunate we have been in our own ways. One area in which we have always connected is our appreciation of family. The family plays a very important role here in India. We take pride and joy in our family life and this includes our traditional foods. Together with our cook at the Bed and Breakfast I run, we have noted the details of a vegetarian recipe that is quite popular with the foreign guests.
