If you are somebody for whom life's most intimate details come flooding back at the sight, smell, and taste of particular foods; ‘Kuch Zayqey’ is for you. Listen to this food nostalgia from the lanes of Old Delhi to find out how the merest sniff of childhood delicacies is enough to paint the vivid pictures of the ‘time gone by’ in the writer’s mind. The story is not just a nostalgic account of childhood indulgences; it also highlights how food memories are special. The writer sketches food memories in a way that proves that food memories are more sensory than any other memory. The story casually conveys that involvement with food is not limited to the taste buds only. In fact, it involves all five senses of vision, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. So, next time when you eat something, immerse yourself in the stimulus with all your senses to add that extra layer of richness to your food memory so that you can also create a story.
