<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nI stayed at the home of my Indian friend Purnendu<\/strong> and Akanksha Tyagi<\/strong> in Melbourne<\/strong>. My friend, Purnendu, who was my collegemate from Institute of Hotel Management<\/strong>, Lucknow<\/strong>, also enjoys good food.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNot only did he and his wife treat me with good red wine<\/strong>, but they also took me to the Dosa Hut<\/strong> at Footscray<\/strong> and also made me taste the delicious and soft vanilla and pineapple flavoured<\/strong> cheese cakes, which is Akanksha\u2019s favourite. The cheese cake shop<\/strong>, located in Truganina<\/strong> is their favourite.<\/p>\n\n\n\nMost of his neighbours were Western people or Chinese. Though I had failed to visit Dandenong, the spiritual heart of Indian and subcontinent culture in Melbourne since as long as the year 1990, Sydney compensated for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We Indians<\/strong> are not obsessively transactional and prefer to stay in a friend or relative\u2019s place instead of a clinical hotel or hostel if there is an option available. After hosting me happily, Purnendu had arranged for a stay for me at one his friend\u2019s homes in Harris Park in Sydney.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAnother friend of mine, Rasvitha Raja,<\/strong> who worked with me in ICICI Securities in Navi Mumbai<\/strong>, also loves the sheer variety of desi khana<\/em><\/strong> (Indian food) at the Indian restaurants scattered around Harris Park. Soon after I was fired from my job for traveling too much<\/strong>, she moved to southern part of Australia<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSoul Window Quotes<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nRasvitha, who is a South Indian<\/strong>, lives in Sydney and in her own words,<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cMe and my family lives in other part of Sydney<\/strong>, near Harris Park. Living in Sydney, we miss good restaurant style food of India<\/strong> badly. Thankfully, there are many restaurants in several parts of Australia<\/strong> which ensures that a good Indian restaurant is never away.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nOn Sundays and special occasions, we make sure that we visit Harris Park and taste the delicious Indian food there. The Indian food in restaurants of Harris Park taste the same as restaurants in India.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis is why I have a deep understanding of all the top Indian restaurants in Harris Park because I have dined here many times. I also know many people living in and around Harris Park, so apart from my personal experience, this blog is also based on my long conversations with residents of Harris Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
