The smooth toned legs .....the soft skin ....the gentle caress on my lips.....and CRUNCH CRUNCH as i bite down on the chicken lolipop i am gorging on in a resturant.
Come New Year and its the time for parties where you get a one in a lifetime chance to feast on all sorts of chicken delights.Of course i missed quite a few parties on account of my fever , but i have no regrets , i'll make it up somehow.
Well folks , chicken delights are not to be savoured by all of sundry, it is reserved for the special breed of connoissuers like me who are willing to break all rules of tradition and eat chicken even on festival days and other religious events ....because i believe ...ITS BETTER TO BE SPRITUALISTIC THAN TO BE RITUALISTIC. I mean god doesnt stop loving you if you decide to forego vegan food .You can still be a devotee without forgoing non-veg stuff.
To give you an example of how hypocritic people can be ......I had dropped in at the Computer science welcome.The spread they had organised was mouth watering with a variety of dishes and at last ...Chicken masala. Of course at that time there was some kind of religious month going on so most people were piling up near the veg counter. So for me it was easy to visit the non-veg counter quite a few times and ended up eating around 22 pieces of chicken ....yes people you had read corrrectly it was 22. And all the while i was eating away , i sensed the eyes of some girls on my plate , i almost sensed their despair of not tucking into such tasty chicken.And all because of stupid self-imposed rule of chicken abstinence.
Now when i am in the hostel , i regularly visit the nearby Bhairavi dhaba on Mondays and Thursdays with my friends ...and we eat as many number of dishes our wallets allow...of course i have to wash it down with 2 bottles of Mounatin dew otherwise i would die of indigestion.
And 2 names come to mind whenever i bite into any chicken dish ...One of them is Tulu and the other is Tapas....
Well Tulu is an all- time -chicken- loving- aficianodo. whenever the topic of discussion veers around Chicken , he always has the expert opinion..regaling us with stories of his travels through the state and about the chicken dishes at various resturants.And this guy has a penchant for Chicken Biriyani. Call him to have some Chicken biriyani, and if he has no money for it , then he would gladly sell off his clothes to eat biriyani.
And the next guy is Tapas.What is remarkable about him is the lightning speed and dexterity with which he manages to finish off his chicken.Once a lot of friends had gone to SANGRAM in sambalpur and we had ordered Chicken Tandoori.I was holding on to a large chunk of the chickens leg and was in the process of taking it near my mouth, and when it readched my mouth all that was left of it was a few scraps of meat attached to the bone.Tapas had eaten off the piece with both hand and that too with super fast agility...PHEW
Whenever you people see a soft , fuzz balled chick ...you get all mellow and croon in delight awed by the sweet and cute little bird , but what i see is tasty chicken lolipops sitting atop toothpicks waiting to be taken into the oven......yes i should really see a psychiatrist.
After writing so much about the bird , it would be an insult if i do not pray for the peace of its soul ..................and then cut it up and gorge on it afterwards.So for all those chicken lovers out there after reading this blog , do send in your experiences about how chicken delights have really spiced up your appetite.
HAPPY FEASTING folks......
