Our pick of some of the many interesting recipes you've been sending us :
Bouquet Au Rhum - by Diljeet. An interesting rum cocktail with a combination of white and dark rum with a hint of cherry and spice.

• Ask Tulleeho continues to buzz with questions pouring in. Our team of resident experts has managed to take time out from their serious drinking to do some serious answering. If you have a booze related query, you can Ask Tulleeho here. We've even been asked the names of Lalu Prasad Yadav's children so rest assured, we can handle anything thrown at us.
Here's a recent query :
Stacey: I was recently diagnosed with a yeast allergy and found out it is in almost all booze. Do you know of vodka or other alcoholic beverage that does not use yeast, or maybe a wine that does not use yeast?
Tulleeho: Hi Stacey, sorry to hear about your allergy. We put your question to an expert, Prasanna Natarajan, Director, Sipping Spirits. Here is what he had to say:
I can safely say that there is no commercial grade potable alcohol that is 'sold' without use of yeast in some form or the other. However, under lab conditions there has been some success to ferment without yeast -

2 featured bar reviews from Delhi, both by Mehul Srivastava. One good one not so good.
• Baci
There is a moment, right after you step into Baci, that it becomes clear to you that this bar wishes it was in Manhattan. The contemporary furniture, the art-work, the subdued light and the high ceilings add to the impression that the downstairs bar has walked right out of a magazine listing the trendy new spots in New York. But to folks tired of the garish furniture, over-loud music and bizarrely hypnotic lighting schemes of many of Delhi’s bars, this is actually a bit of a relief...Read the full review.
• Glo
For those amongst you who prefer the quick review, here's the deal: Avoid this bar. It reeks of desperation, the drinks are expensive and unexciting, and at all the three times I visited, the bar-staff far outnumbered the guests.
For those of you with the leisure to read on, Glo, as a bar, is a testament to that intangible something that separates bars with character from bars that, well, need a lot more oomph. Read the full review.

WHAT DOES SALMAGUNDI MEAN ?
According to the Larousse Gastronomique:
“An elaborate salad laid out on a large flat dish with each ingredient minced
(ground), shredded,
or sliced and arranged attractively in small rings of contrasting colour. Cold
meats, fish, cooked
vegetables, salads and pickles - anything can be used. The word is also used figuratively
to mean a
miscellaneous collection of things."
