My lunch on the 27th of May

My lunch
Originally uploaded by pradeep jeganathan.

Sautéed sardines, with polenta and bread, in a small café, just by the old jewish ghetto, in Venice.
It was amazing!
In Italy they have wine on tap, like beer.
I liked that. :)

yes, i felt they were, outside the tourist paths. and if you walk a little bit away from the places that are hightlighted in the map, you are where real, regular people live, and they seemed nice and friendly :); 8:07 pm, June 12, 2006

Pradeep Jeganathan was born and raised in Colombo, Sri Lanka, where he lives and works. He began to cook when he discovered, as an undergraduate in the US, that MacDonald's was terrible. He continued, when he realized that girls like a guy who knows to cook. After he took up photography as a hobby, he got into shooting food. He has eaten a lot of cold meals since, but he hasn't stopped, because taking a photograph, helps him remember what he's eaten. (He eats a lot, and some times, he forgets). His food photos have been published in a variety of international and Sri Lankan print magazines and web sites and his food photo/recipe columns have appeared Zero77 & Spectrum ("Achcharu") and will soon appear in Ink. He's been a featured chef on ETV's The Home Gourmet, his cooking and food photos have been the subject of a feature article in Sri Lanka's Sunday Times; his food blog has also been featured in Femina.in -- the Indian women's magazine.
