While it seemed a normal day from a work and school standpoint, several hotels around the city had Thanksgiving Feasts on Thursday.  We opted to join 2 other couples and their children for a dinner at my personal favorite, Hotel Novotel.

As you can see below, the food that was delivered to us was quite ornate and impressive. I really have no clue as to the names of the dishes, so I just wrote what they contained.  While my descriptions are lacking, taste surely was not!

Fancy Appetizer #3:  Onions, Peppers and Zucchini

While the food was very tasty, it ended up being a bit too fancy for our children’s very discriminating palates.  They really would have preferred a plate of french fries to the beautifully presented, lavish food that was placed in front of them.  So, instead of eating, they spent the majority of the time in the lobby with the face painters and balloon artists.

With the good food and the delightful conversation with our fellow expats, we had a wonderful time.  What a great way to spend Thanksgiving in India.
