White Sauce Pasta

I'm a great fan of Thai food, Malaysian, Italian, Mexican, Japanese in that order and given a chance i would try to cook the favorite food from each of these cuisines.

I do not get the lemon grass in my locality and hence did not try my hands on making Thai food, be it red curry or green curry and the like.

It's a beautiful place and you would not find any shops other than this tea kadai (shop) or potti kadai (petty shop).
