Day 132 Sunday December 12th. Shimla to Kalka toy train of 6 hrs thru 19 tunnels and as many bridges. 4 more hrs to Delhi by normal train
Last night we had dinner at Moti Mahal, founded by Sir Kundan Lal Gujral-Father of Tandoori cuisine.
Yahkni Shorba (Lamb soup simmered with Indian spices and drizzled with lemon juice and fresh mint). US$2.
Sabe Butter Masala (Diced fresh vegetables with ginger and garlic in red and brown gravy with Indian spices). US$4.
Roghan Gosht (Marinated Lamb cooked over a slow fire with Indian spices) US$6.
But now it's Sunday and we have to travel by train back to Delhi. This is the narrow-gauge track laid by the British to connect to their HQ at Shimla and so I suppose that it's the one that Ghandi, Montbatten, Nehru and all the others would have used as well.
