Fruit and Vegetable Stalls
I can buy fruit and vegetables in Bangalore from all kinds of places. Here are some photos of stalls, including a man sitting on the pavement of a street in Varthur selling guavas (spot the clever way in which the bamboo protects his stock), two movable fruit stalls in Shivajinagar, and a stand full of kappa (which I only discovered this week is the source of tapioca) in the Hypercity supermarket in Kundalahalli Gate.
I love your pictures – everything looks so colourful and vibrant. I think my favourite for this week is the stick insect, though. Maybe I’lll recommend one as a pet to the boys when inevitable happens to the hamster… At least insects don’t run round in noisy wheels all night. Although would we have to feed it bugs? Leaves would be OK…
Ha ha do you think the boys are too smart to be conned by a stick, or do you need to source a real stick insect?
i never knew what Kappa is – do you know how it ‘turns’ into tapioca?
Also waiting for pics of the home grown banana tasting ceremony!!
