Examiner - a new attempt at free-lance journalism

I started writing for Examiner.com.  I never thought I would agree to be an unpaid free-lance journalist;) after years of professional experience in India.  But hey, breaking into the world of free-lance journalism in the US hasn't been exactly easy - not in this economy, not with my lack of a media network.  So the Examiner, it is.  At least it let's me get published and I receive some good feedback from their group of editors backing this venture.

So here goes a link to one of my recent articles... read, comment and enjoy!

And thus began a blog

Welcome to my eating adventures! I am a vegetarian and love eating! I hate when a Maitre D' says with wide round eyes "Oh but vegetarians eat fish" or when I ask a restaurant what's vegetarian on their menu and they say, "The salads...". Errm... vegetarians are not cows, grazing on grass, yunnoh?

We can pretty much eat any cuisine, and at any restaurant except when it says "BBQ"... but only if the rest of the world realized that, especially here in Texas! This blog is the culinary point of view of a vegetarian in Texas.
