This evening I had the pleasure of viewing a TV program featuring a Japanese person relishing Bhutanese food in a Bhutanese restaurant in Japan. I remember how Bhutanese folks love their green chillies not only as an ingredient in their food items but also as a very common 'vegetable' to eat with a pinch of salt. In Bhutan, even children in primary schools carry green chillies in their pockets and eat them raw, as I and my colleagues had seen 40 years back or so.
Though the program is listed in TV Channel's website, the video is restricted to be played in India, according to the website. However, let me share the link to this interesting travel and food program.
Let me complete my post by sharing a photograph taken in the early '80s when I was teaching in Bhutan. The photo shows me wearing Jeans trousers and a white cotton shirt. Along with me are a few local people. The building at the back is the main lounge of Paro airport, that was being constructed.
