My Lunch


I eat lunch every day. so what’s unique about it? First of all, what is lunch? Wikipedia says: Luncheon, commonly abbreviated to lunch, is a mid-day meal, and is generally smaller than dinner, which is the main meal of the day whenever dinner is eaten.

Interesting, since the popular saying says: breakfast like a king, lunch like a queen, dinner like a pauper!

Well, there was a day when I had lunch twice! It was a Swiss lunch. Wondering what a Swiss lunch is? Now don’t google for it, you won’t find it exactly, since I coined the term just now. I define it as: lunch in the Swiss Alps.

I visited Mount Titlis this summer with family. Since I foresaw the possibility of not finding good vegetarian food up there, I packed some burgers, French Fries and coke. As soon as we reached there (around 12 noon), we were so hungry that we gobbled up our lunch.


We thought we had finished lunch. But in fact, that was just Phase I of our lunch. The plethora of activities made us hungry soon.

Luckily, as we descended down in the cable car, we saw a Vada Pav/Pav Bhaji shop. Unimaginable! Indian chat food in the Swiss Alps! That was my Lunch Phase II!


So now you see how I ate Swiss lunch like a king!
