Hi Bernado,
With all your "Aao Portuguese" Podhi and Patrade (Pride and Prejudice), I
must inform you that people in the United States, one of the most advanced
countries in the world also eat with the fork in the right hand. Did you
know that they switch it to the left hand only when using the knife ? It is
just the more efficient way to eat and it also reduces the dishwasher
cutlery load by 33%. So the Bhayyas did not get it wrong. They were just
ahead of the time and that's the way many American tables are laid today.
The Indian soldiers were eating in the 60s how the NASA astronauts are
eating on the Space Shuttle and the Space Station today. Its you and the
"Yes Sirrr, No Sirrr" subservient Goan cooks and butlers of the British Raj
who were stuck in the old, inefficient paradigm of the British !
Also How ignorant are you of India's History to call Pandit Jawaharlal
Nehru, our erudite British-educated, first Prime Minister of Free India
Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru a Bhayya ? Dont you know he was a Kashmiri Pandit ?
Do you realize the difference ?
Best Regards,
Dr. Carmo D'Cruz,

Subject: [Goanet] Cooks and butlers how a bhayya got it wrong!
To: goanet@lists.goanet.org
Nehru may have called Goans cooks and butlers but after the invasion he sent
his troupe of clowns to get things in place for the bounty collection.
>From the story that I heard his clown troupe made it to Hotel Mandovi where
they ordered the placement of forks on the right side and the knife on the
left of the plate. Has any body heard of this story, especially from
Tivolem? Also do the bhayyas eat with forks and knives in UP?
Thanks for any information.
