More Panipuri Gyaan
My batchmate from IIML, Ranadurjay 'Rony' Talukdar has got his gastronomic as well as creative juices flowing as a result of my panipuri post. He writes at length about the Calcutta "puchkas" here - The Delicious Debauchery

Go read the full thing.
And while on it, read a similar post I made a couple of years back -
