Western foods in my city
I am from South India and I like to write about the western foods in my city. Our people have a variety of dishes and use lot of spices in cooking. recently, western foods have come to our markets esp, burgers, pizzas, KFC. These foods are very expensive compared to our traditional foods and so it is considered as a luxury foods. I am very fond of burgers and I used to go McDonald's regularly. It is affordable and not so expensive like pizzas. Later I found a shop named Burger Lab which I never heard before. I just thought why can't I try it. I went to that shop and tried a burger. It was yummy. I felt it is even more tastier than MC Donald's and interestingly it is cheaper than McDonald burgers. I never went to McDonald's again and I switched to Burger Lab. They indeed do experiments to develop different variants of burger. They sell around 9 variants of burgers which they have discovered through their experiments. It is very tasty too. Burger Lab is in city of Cochin, Kerala but they are in small street , I mean, not in the main street. I discovered this shop while walking from office to my residence. Many in our city doesn't know about this yet. They do have some regular customers. I talked to their owner and I came to know that owners are 3 partners who are youth and they come from a place which is near to my village. My village is 100 km north from Cochin city. There are two burger shops near to our village. I told the owners of Burger lab to start a burger shop near our village. I found that only the youths go for western foods and old people prefer their traditional foods. Starting a burger shop is highly risky in our place because only youth who have money will buy it. Not all youth look like western food here. It is only a minority who likes it. KFC is accepted by our people. A big majority go for it. But when it comes to burgers only a minority who liked it. Pizza is loved by many but it is too expensive and pizza shops can be found only in big cities. Burgers are relatively cheap and Kerala people slowly started to accept it. I consider my village people very advanced because there are 2 burger shop near our village. That is very strange in Kerala. Most Kerala village won't have western food shops mainly because people prefer their traditional foods and people in village are usually poor. I asked many people why they don't go for a burger. I got different answers. Most of the poor people replied that it is expensive and it is food of rich people. Most of the educated people replied that it is unhealthy because of its high fat content. Some replied that they don't like burgers because they didn't like the taste. These people didn't like it's taste because burgers don't have spices as in their traditional foods. I prefer pizzas to burger but pizza is too expensive in our place. Western foods are high tasty food but they have high fat content. The recent trend in our place is start to venture to open western food shops.
