Food Tour

It has been just over 6 months away from Bangalore and I am slowly starting to miss every bit of it that is India, my home!
Well let me ask you something before I tell you what makes me feel so...
Have you ever thought of planning your outing just on the basis of food and everything else comes second?
Well to think of it, it sounds a bit like the HOMP show... but when I actually tried it out, it really works well.
You have to have company that loves eating food though...
What made it very interesting and surprising for me was that we planned a trip on the basis of what we wanted to eat and where we wanted to eat... Then once we finalized our food tour, we then planned what tourist spots to see...
This plan worked very well as we saw all the places that we planned and also saw more. We eat all the Indian food that we had planned...To add to this we did not have any confusion in our head as to whether we are missing out on some tourist attraction or not... the reason being tourist attractions were not on our mind when we planned, but the food was. tourist attractions were part and parcel of the food tour you can say :) :).
Well this all happened over a 2 day weekend... short time and had loads of fun and great food...
After this very successful trip I am thinking of using similar ideas to plan a trip. For food lovers like me and my wife, it will surely work.
Now coming back from the trip has been a bit tough... I am missing all the good Indian food and then again saw Dhobi Ghat which reminded of the India in a very realistic and different way... Missing home for all the great food by my mom and then again missing the street food of India...
For all the food lovers, you can give a food tour a try and let me know if it worked for you?????????
