Today I saw a dream about a food item. And I wanted to try that dish in breakfast. It’s kind of fusion of Indian and Italian food. These two types of foods have their own mouthwatering taste. And if we combine both of them then it multiplies the overall taste of the item. But I agree, it is little heavier for the breakfast. That’s why I compensated with lighter lunch menu in the afternoon. I prefer good food for the happy mood. And starting a day with a happy mood always makes the day more countable.
So, here it goes the Day 3: breakfast menu: -
