Changing Taste Of Teej

Hey, have you turned into a veggie?' one of my friends asked while I moved away from the food stall at a 'Teej Dar' programme without picking up the pieces of roasted chicken, and rather filled an extra bowl with 'Kheer' (rice pudding). I grinned at her in response and said, while I continued being omnivorous, my taste buds were fed up with the same types of dishes served at almost every programmes organised in this city – from press meets and conferences to marriage receptions and Teej Dar. She threw a befuddled look at me and moved away with a plate full with delicacies.
