Ebony n Ivory!

Just like this title.. Ebony n Ivory holds a very interesting history to it.

It is the name of a dessert +Pizza Hut India  and this story revolves around my college days. The BBK Dav College for Women, Asr. it's a gurls college and precisely one of best Graduate colleges of Amritsar. We have have a Pizza hut located on the very road of our college called Lawrence road. This road is known for the smart and chick crowd walking down and because of college you get to see the best of gurls too.

We all have problems in life, don't we. And the best thing is to sit with your friends and talk your heart out. So, we used to hit this food joint mostly to sit down with friends and have a chit chat with some good food. After all, Punjabi's are known for their taste buds. Here we discovered this dessert called "Ebony n Ivory". It's a  chick combination of Chocolava pastry layered with hot Chocolate sauce with a scoop of Vanilla Ice cream with a hint of a Mint leave on top the scoop. a beautiful combination of white and Brown on a ceramic plate but this Mint leave adds a green color and a certain amount of freshness to the plating. A sudden trace of green in the warm browns and whites. Over and above this thing tastes amazing. All chocolate lovers will agree to this. As soon as the chocolate sauce used to melt the cool cool ice vanilla ice cream and with a bite of Cake it used to melt in my mouth I used to melt along and get lost i it's taste. It made all the worldly affairs and woes turn secondary and the taste is sinful. No calorrie count for the day.. just wanted to relish the taste and pay for my crime.

Infact this became a ritual among our group where in we used hit to Pizza hut and order our special dishes. On one of such days, here comes Khyati, as usual agitated types, something was bothering here. Oh yeah i remember she had a fight with her Boyfriend that day and she wanted to vent her heart out.
Khyati: Bas yaar main apni life se tang aagyi hun..
Group: baith ja yaar, chill! Chal ek kaam karte hain isko "Ebony n Ivory" khilate hain..

N finally we were able to lift her mood up. Anyways after Diamonds, choclate is the second best thing that work for women.

Going towards the contrary we have lot of troubles in life but if we find our "Ebony n Ivory" to make us feel better about the situation and then act accordingly. Now if you can find solution while doing away "Chin ta ta chita chita chinta ta ta ta.. then what is the harm in trying that out. I miss that company of college friends, doing away the vehlapanti, pulling each other's legs over small little things. Purani jeans aur guitar, mohalle ki woh chhat aur mere yaar...! what a hit it was.. beautiful track. Now I don't go Pizza hut when i am all alone. And i miss those silly fights over small bites, last slice of pizza, more garlic bread n all. Keeping the food aside "Woh dosti ko kahin talashti hun main.. jo gum si gayi hai is duniya ki bheed main kahin..!"

Miss you Manvi, Prerna, Khyati, Cherry, Palak, Sonam, I can go long way but need to cut short. You guys have been a very important part of my life and i will always cherish our memories.

Stay tuned for more..!
