- Is wine out of a tetra pack, rather than a bottle, really better for the environment?
- Go ethnic with your crepes and try a South Indian dosa -- they're made "from fermented rice and lentil batter, spread onto huge griddles to make thin, savoury crepes that have a mild, slightly sour flavour."

An eatery in a Mumbai suburb has bested its own Guinness record for cooking up the world's longest dosa. Sankalp Restaurant shattered its 1997 record of 25 feet with a
behemoth that measured 30 feet, according to Cybernoon.com.
Sixteen chefs used 27 pounds of rice and lentil flour batter to prepare the crispy killer crepe, which served from 30 to
35 people and cost about $270 to prepare. Not content to rest on its laurels, Sankalp is already planning a 50-foot
dosa. What I want to know is what the heck do they put all that coconut chutney in? I envision a swimming pool.
