Mishti venture

I am not very fond of sweets, particularly the ones that have the sugar syrup dripping all over. Last evening had taken a stroll with a friend. The evening was cool and breezy and we happened to pass by a famous bengali sweet shop in the locality. I had heard of the famous bengali sweet curd, but never tasted it. Its called "mishti dohi", an awesome sweet. Looks like ordinary curd which is incredibly sweet! Then tried out a chaat "dohi puri" which was also quite nice. The tinge of tamarind in the curd in it makes the taste interesting. There were so many other very sweet dishes. One thing I have noticed is when you are hungry the smell of sweets makes you more hungry, but once you feel full(one need not have a lot of bengali sweet to feel full!), the smell is not that pleasant.
The walk was meant to burn calories and both of laughed about the whole thing. And we also made an interesting observation. Right opposite the sweet shop there is a diabetic center, where one can get sugar-free stuff, even chocolates there are sugar free and there is a well known gym right next to it! Its a symbiotic existence. Together they make sure they are all in business.
