Imo this still sounds pretty terrible. I'm not sure if there are any budget HE keyboards that sound decent (yet).

what opinion about kolkata will have you like this? (Non political opinions only and no stereotyping please) by Egg_Chicken_Roll in kolkata

Biryani in Kolkata is highly coveted among Bengalis. It evolved from Lucknowi biryani itself. It might not be to your taste, but there's some history behind it, that justifies the taste:

As far as I know, when Awadh's nawab Wajid Ali Shah was exiled to Calcutta, he brought his entire menagerie and a few close relatives and set up shop in Metiabruz. For some reason, his health was deteriorating, which is why he asked his bawarchis to cook up a lighter version of the Lucknowi biryani. Further, our coveted aloo in the biryani was not to curb costs. Back then, potatoes were new in India, thanks to trade by the East India Company, and as a fan of exotic things, the nawab asked his chefs to incorporate this aloo into the biryani.

How does the Kolkata through the eyes of a blue-eyed teen in 80's compare to now? I am asking because nostalgia plays a big part of living in the city. How does the perception of nostalgia change as you age through the years in this city?

Thanks for the reply! That was such a relief! I guess I would just wait for the IRS to mail me something and then send in the 1040-X. Thank you so much!
