Chai and Homemade Chocolate Chunk Shortbread

Location: Maple Tourist Home, Ernakulam, Kochi, India

Date: 18 January 2009

Details: Chai and Homemade Chocolate Chunk Shortbread

Notes: Chai bought as a 'take-out' from the Aryaas Restaurant next door to the Maple hostel. The bowl/saucer is placed over the little metal cup to keep it warm and prevent spills.

The shortbread was made in England before going to India and it's a particularly special piece because The Lion had managed not to scoff it, despite looking at it every day for two weeks.
