KASHMIR
Suvarna Manjusha
A fancy name and a price tag. But this sweet is loaded with goond, roasted dryfruits and cucumber seeds and the shopkeeper advised us to have ‘do-chammach’ everyday, for three months, in almost a doctor-like tone.
FOR Rsu00a01,100 per kg
AT Trupti, High Street Phoenix, Lower Parel.
