Cultural Influences: Many Indians are vegetarians having been influenced by Buddha (Indian King and founder of Buddhism), Mahavir (founder of ,Jainism) and King Ashoka. Our cuisine has been influenced by the Aryan settlers, the Arab and Chinese traders and conquerors such as the Persians, Mongolians, Turks, the British and the Portuguese.

Yogurt, an accompaniment to Indian meals introduces good flora (acidophilus) into the digestive system. Many of our menus are vegetarian, which tend to be more alkaline than non-vegetarian menus. Fresh fruit follows Indian meals, which also contributes to an alkaline balance.

Since traditionally we cook with tastes rather than with recipes. Indian cuisine has very wholesome tastes designed to satisfy not only the taste buds but also the human physiology. The hospitality of the Indians is legendary. In Sanskrit Literature the three famous words Atithi Devo Bhava' or 'the guest is truly your god' are a dictum of Indian hospitality. Indians believe that they are honored if they share their mealtimes with guests.

Even the poorest look forward to guests and are willing to share their meager food with a guest. And of particular importance is the Indian host's pride that they will not let a guest go away un-fed or unhappy from their home. Indians are known for their incredible ability to serve food to their guests invited or uninvited.
