The reflection of sparking city lights on the calm waters of the Corniche as darkness approaches us, the array of docked boats near a small piece of land on the water, the white flocks of birds diving into the blue waters, the crowded pavements and the beautifully lit city skyline - these are the typical scenes at the Muttrah Corniche here in Muscat on a usual weekend evening. And that was where we had been last weekend for an evening outing. This is the best place to observe a mix of cultural traditions, urban sophistication and multiculturalism—all this amidst quite scenic settings. You can spend the whole evening out here watching the silent waters and draining yourself out from the weekly stress.
I am excited this week as we have only three working days before we have a long weekend off for the National Day holidays. We haven't made big plans yet for the off days and we just want to plan a day ahead one at a time. The magic of holidays enveloped with warmth and laughter and plenty of memories to save.
Inspired by all this excitement and to tantalise your taste buds, I have a very simple recipe here for a fried chicken. Nothing new in fried chicken and nothing to learn in it. But yes, the recipe has a new combination of spices which is worth noting. We also call it Bangalore chicken sometimes because it has its origin from the city of Bangalore which is also my birthplace.

The Speciality of Bangalore is Fried Bangalore chicken. I used to eat it from Indian restaurents while I am on the trip of Dubai. There are so many good Indian restaurents.
