Coorg Diaries

COORG

Its like Ruskin Bond's book of Missouri.  Coorg is a beatiful place filled with green hills, fresh water falls and streams and old slant roof houses covered with mossy green plants and algae because it rains a lot.

My first impression of coorg was that its just like any other hill station.  But no, its way beyong that.  Its more dense with trees and plants, simple people and very close to nature.

We reached Coorg by 7PM, but it was as if it was midnight.  The streets were deserted and it was very dark. The place was ready and waiting for the rain.  

We had booked a bed and breakfast accomodation.  It was a huge bunglow and the place was neat, cozy and warm.  

Our friends brought us dinner, and how can I not mention the varieties, for they were Coorg specialities.
kadambattu....steamed rice balls
akki roti ....rice roti
koli curry.....chicken gravy
