Not Varanasi the holiest place in India, but still, pretty damn exciting to be going to Benares restaurant in Mayfair. My bag is packed already, but I don't need much given I'll be working 14 hour shifts, 6 days straight! Apparently we get two hours off in the afternoon, at which point I was planning to collapse on the grass in Berkeley Square. But then some other chef friends snorted with laughter, saying that rarely happens and to prepare myself for a non stop day. Do you think they'll let me have a stool?
Having this opportunity to learn how to make really beautiful Indian food is just mind blowing. It's one of my all time favourite cuisines, and I think some of my best moments on MasterChef probably involved my favourite Punjabi delights. Although thinking about it, so did some of my worst!
I probably won't be able to blog about it until I get home, but I will try and take lots of photos of gorgeous looking scrumptious food. Wish me luck!
