The second one isn't potato, and the last one is free airport food because the flight from New Delhi to Calcutta was delayed by 5 hours.

While India has some the best spices of any cuisine I know, the ice cream Falooda was easily the best food I've had here. It is a fancy mix of texture and flavor:

• Crunchy nuts
• Coconut or vanilla ice cream
• Delicious strawberry milk shake
• Small chewy dark berries
• Thin noodles for a surprising texture
• Milk rice to reset your taste buds
• Red pudding
