Website is under construction though : http://www.dragonfruitindia.com/<BR/><BR/>Excellent narration.

Ur parents definatly know that fruit. if u r from outside it ll b great experience for you. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for ur blogpost.<BR/><BR/>RmnRayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13379245758028728812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10064462.post-1146552812763257352006-05-02T14:53:00.000+08:002006-05-02T14:53:00.000+08:00#Aslam,Sheesh!

There was that corner with a glass wall where they let you watch how they made the noddles, manually. You know, the kneading, the tossing and whacking kind of thing and the slicing into tiny tiny strands to make it into a noddle form, just by the use of their hands. It was very, very impressive!! <BR/><BR/>Maybe you can take a video of that, buy a pack of noddles and show the whole thing to mom?<BR/><BR/>Ha ha ha this sounds weird. Don't mind me. I'm still amazed with that noddle- making, you know.<BR/><BR/>Have a great day!
