Monday 14th October 2024

Theatre day today at the tiny Drama venue within the Sydney Opera complex, so after 18,000 steps yesterday walking to the Spit, we thought it prudent to take it easy this morning. Necessary as well as prudent because precipitation is definitely in sight, if not far away. Well this is Spring after all. The schools have gone back this morning after their holiday and suburbia, usually quiet anyway, has returned to the hallowed cloisters of the norm. It's true we did get the whiff of a small party/ bbq yesterday but the Aussies don't make a fuss. It's also true, it seems, that instead of making a mess at home, convocations gather on grassy places by the beach; impressive table networks, mass catering equipment and food galore sufficient for the 5,000 mystically appear with no outward concerns for shelter but usually under trees seeking protection from the sun rather than rain as would be the case in the UK. As we crossed Clontarf Beach yesterday there were many such groups each having a very jolly relaxing time, well practised as though a very regular activity was taking place. The local authority amenity BBQs were also being fully exercised.

So this morning it was a book in the modest garden and for some, the Archers on catch-up.

After an early lunchtime egg and ham sandwich we set off on the 173X to the City, first stop Museum of Contemporary Art on Circular Quay.

I have to say that I must be a lapsed Modern Art appreciator. The first exhibition we innocently submitted to was by a 74 year old Contemporary Australian artist, Julie Rrap who possibly for the security or anonymity it offered reversed her given name of Parr. Julie's work expresses her interest in images of the body, especially the female body, mainly as far as I could tell, hers. The big screen showed herself sitting naked on a very big sheet of white paper holding a camera in one hand and a big stick of charcoal in the other. The aim of the game was to rotate and draw around various parts, hands, feet, legs and the stunning result was a very large scribble in a sort of spirographic form. Well that was good wasn't it! On the way into the area was a little sign which said there was adult content and the establishment would not stand for any lude or provocative behaviour. Moving on we came across a sort of patio made up of small tiles which you were invited to trespass upon. All the while there is a kind of drilling noise, regular but in pulses. Somewhat perplexed about the image I was to take away, I enquired of the attendant what the meaning was of the noise. I agree she said, it's SO annoying, it's been going on all day. They are doing some work in the next room. Oh I said, it's nothing to do with the artwork then? No, she said with inflection, and looked at me like I was an idiot.

We would have left there and then but it was raining so we wandered around some other idiotic displays.

Contemporary Art and me are on different planets.

Then it was to an early dinner before the show. We dashed through the rain to a very nearly closed food hall between the IBM office and Woolworths. Saving an Indian meal or two from a night in the bin, we secured two Rogan Josh and Chicken Tikka plates with nan bread, which was filling if nothing else. Sadly, due to the viscosity of the sauce and my careless eating habits, I ended up sharing memories of the meal encoded within the fabric of my shorts with my fellow theatre goers at the Sydney Opera House!

The billing for Julia said this 'In 2012, Australia's first female prime minister, Julia Gillard, gave a speech that sent shockwaves around the world'. Justine Clarke plays Julia Gillard in a powerful monologue representation of her premiership but starting her story from her early beginnings in Barry, South Wales. The influences of her mining roots, the stories of the 1960 disaster at Six Bells colliery, the 1966 tragic loss at Aberfan shaped her thinking for justice. Moving to Adelaide in 1966 as £10 poms, she determined to study law. The play builds us to the speech on 9th October 2012 when in parliament and as PM she has to both condemn the actions of the Speaker of the House, Peter Slipper, for making sexist, misogynistic comments in a text message, whilst ensuring that her position remained firm in a minority government. She was being attacked by the the leader of the opposition party in a no confidence motion by, Tony Abbott. The speech that sent shockwaves around the world turned the tables on Abbott, pointing the finger at multiple examples of hypocrisy, sexism and misogyny by Abbott himself! Brilliant play, brilliant performance by Justine and incredibly interesting subject even to someone from the Motherland. As she donned the red wig and slipped into the power jacket, Justine became Julia and boomed out the acclaimed speech. She took a standing ovation from all corners of the stalls.

Ferry back to Manly, then with 30 minutes to spare we thought how nice it would be to finish a great day out with a small beer in the Bavarian. Quarter past nine it was, sorry we are now closed they said, it's Monday! Wow, you Australians sure know how to party! Same for all the other pubs in town!

ps. Mince pies seen in Coles!

Hi! It's the anon from earlier (the one mentioning the long post) and yeah, if people would research before they wrote about cultures they don't know about, it would be great. Like I have an essay/rant about how Indian characters in Western media these days are practically written as either stereotypes, background characters which is fine except you could replace them with a white character and nothing would change, or something quite obvious was done wrong and it is seen as great diversity. And fandom is almost worse because even if the media got it right, the fandom does not. (Ahem the whole thing with Pavitr and hair oil and no he does not put it in his hair right before he leaves for school, not with that hair style)

Anyways, my one positive thing, I don't know if you have Netflix, but if you do, you should totally watch the Unlisted. Great, Brilliant Indian characters, the food, the plot and I just love it so much. I showed it to my family and they adored it too, and it's so difficult to find a Western show where it feels like a normal show vs being overly done, and The Unlisted for sure is one of them.

Hello again!!! Speak the truth, the more people know just how skewed Indian characterisation is the more chances people will actually pause and factually check their stuff. And nowadays, especially for fandom it's so easy to get a sensitivity reader, practically everyone is of a different background, so people can find someone have them have a read through to see if anything is odd or based on misinformation. I constantly ask my friends stuff that's hyper specific on their background (for others that don't know I'm South Indian, yet I ask my North Indian friend for Hindi slang to use in my own fics lmao)

(Also good god not that putting-coconut-oil-before-school fiasco T-T if anything, people only had to change ONE thing about that statement and it would have been alright: coconut oil in the hair, AND THEN SHAMPOO BEFORE SCHOOL... it's what I do at least, and it works fine)

(also you're so right Pavitr would have been beaten up and left to fry outside by the teachers for that hairstyle... we'll just say mumbattan is more progressive about students expressing themselves...)

wait HOLY SHIT YOU HAVE WATCHED THE UNLISTED. OH MY GOD. I HAVE NOT HEARD OF THAT IN YEARS. I watched it when it first aired and oh my GOD my brother and I went crazy over it because WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE'S A SHOW ABOUT MODERN DESI KIDS IN FUCKING SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA??

A SHOW ABOUT INDIAN KIDS?? SET IN /MY/ HOME TOWN??? the chances are low but never zero, let's fucking goooo

(Believe it or not I have not watched the finale episode lmao,, I think it's high time for a rewatch)

📢WATCH 'THE UNLISTED'... WATCH IT NOW !!!!!

The Cultural Significance and Global Appeal of South Indian Dosa

Imagine biting into a crispy, golden dosa, its delicate layers crackling with each bite, while the warm, aromatic sambar and fresh chutney enhance every flavour. What you’re experiencing is more than just food—it’s a piece of South Indian heritage. With roots that stretch back over centuries, dosa has transformed from a local favorite to a beloved dish worldwide. Whether you’re enjoying it at a bustling street corner in Chennai or from a cozy restaurant in New York, dosa’s unique blend of tradition, flavour and nutrition continues to win hearts around the world

Dosa: A Symbol of South Indian Heritage

Dosa dates back over 2,000 years, originating from the Southern states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, and Andhra Pradesh. It is believed to have been mentioned in ancient Tamil literature, highlighting its deep cultural roots.

In South Indian households, making dosa is a daily ritual. The batter is fermented overnight to achieve the perfect consistency and taste, a tradition passed down through generations. The process brings families together, making it an integral part of their culinary heritage. The crisp, golden-brown delicacy is more than just food—it is an emotion, a memory, and a celebration of South India’s rich cuisine.

Health Benefits of Dosa

Beyond its delicious taste, dosa offers numerous health benefits. As a fermented food, it contains probiotics that aid digestion and improve gut health. The primary ingredients—rice and urad dal (black gram)—are packed with essential nutrients.

Rich in Proteins and Carbohydrates: Dosa provides a balanced mix of proteins and carbohydrates, making it an excellent energy source.

Low in Calories and Fat: Compared to deep-fried snacks, dosa is lower in calories, making it a healthier choice.

Gluten-Free Option: Traditional dosa is naturally gluten-free, making it ideal for individuals with gluten intolerance.

Probiotic Benefits: The fermentation process increases vitamin B content and promotes gut-friendly bacteria.

Customisable for Dietary Needs: Variations using millet, ragi, or oats cater to different dietary preferences, ensuring a diverse range of options for all.

The Global Rise of Dosa

With globalisation, dosa has gained immense popularity beyond India. Indian restaurants worldwide serve dosa in its many forms, from the traditional plain version to fusion varieties incorporating local flavors.

Dosa in International Cuisine

Street Food Sensation: In cities like London, New York, and Sydney, dosa has become a popular street food.

Fusion Flavors: Chefs experiment with fillings such as avocado, cheese, mushrooms, and scrambled eggs.

Vegan and Health Trends: The plant-based nature of dosa makes it a favorite among health-conscious individuals.

Social Media Influence: The visually appealing, crispy dosa has taken over social media platforms, with food bloggers sharing creative takes on the dish, further fuelling its popularity.

Different Varieties of Dosa

One reason for dosa’s popularity is its versatility. Numerous variations have emerged, each with a unique taste and texture:

Masala Dosa: Stuffed with a spiced potato filling, this is one of the most popular versions.

Rava Dosa: Made with semolina instead of fermented batter, rava dosa is thin, crispy, and quick to prepare.

Set Dosa: A softer, thicker version often served in sets of three with chutney and sambar.

Neer Dosa: A delicate, lacy dosa made with rice batter and no fermentation.

Pesarattu: A dosa made from green gram (moong dal), commonly enjoyed in Andhra Pradesh.

Cheese or Pizza Dosa: A modern twist featuring cheese, vegetables, and sauces, blending global flavors with South Indian tradition.

Onion Dosa: Sprinkled with finely chopped onions and sometimes green chilies for extra crunch and spice.

The Sensation of Eating Dosa

Eating dosa is an experience in itself. Traditionally served with coconut chutney and sambar, the combination of spicy, tangy, and mildly sweet flavors creates a perfect balance. Some prefer adding tomato chutney, mint chutney, or even jaggery to enhance the taste. The art of breaking a crispy dosa and dipping it into aromatic sambar is something every food lover cherishes.

In South India, dosa is not just a breakfast dish; it is also served at weddings, festivals, and celebrations. Watching a dosa being made fresh on a hot griddle, with its enticing aroma filling the air, is a treat in itself. The visual appeal of the dosa-making process—spreading the batter, crisping the edges, and expertly folding it—makes it a delight to watch and enjoy.

Dosa and Its Role in South Indian Festivals and Celebrations

Dosa is not just a beloved dish that holds a special place in South Indian festivals and celebrations. It is often part of the grand feasts during religious events, weddings, and family gatherings. In these contexts, dosa represents more than just nourishment; it symbolises tradition, hospitality, and the warmth of family and community. Moreover, the ritual of serving dosa with chutneys and sambar is a reflection of the balance of flavors, much like the balance of life—sweet, sour, spicy, and savoury all coexist harmoniously in every bite. The sharing of a meal like dosa is a reminder of the importance of togetherness and the joy of eating as a family.

Dosa is not just a meal. It's a cultural experience that captures the essence of South India in every bite. From its ancient roots to its global presence today, dosa has won the hearts of food lovers everywhere. Its perfect blend of tradition, flavour, and nutrition has made it a timeless favorite, evolving with modern twists while staying true to its authentic origins. If you're eager to dive into the world of dosa and explore its rich flavors, visit the Le Monsoon Blog for more insights and inspiration.

Dosa being a timeless cultural treasure blends tradition, flavor and nutrition with its global appeal and versatility.

Canada vs. Australia: Which is Better for Student Immigration in 2025?

Many students might start with a dream of building a better future abroad or getting a better quality of education abroad, but with numerous countries to choose from, students often don’t have the necessary insights on which country will be perfect for them. Among all the popular destinations, students often get confused between Canada and Australia. 

These two offer world-class education, easy study visa pathways, and outstanding career opportunities after graduation to students. These qualities create confusion among students. This guide will compare factors like tuition fees, cost of living, university rankings, and post-study work options for both the countries, so you can have an idea to select the right one for you.

Education Quality and Top Universities

As an Indian student, you’ll be pleased to know that both Canada and Australia are home to some of the world’s most prestigious universities offering varied courses for education, personal growth, and career development. Canada is home to prestigious institutions like the University of Toronto (ranked 25th globally) and the University of British Columbia (38th), known for their strong research, innovative teaching, and multicultural campuses. 

In comparison, Australia has globally acclaimed universities like the University of Melbourne (13th), the University of Sydney (18th), and the University of New South Wales (UNSW) (19th) famous for their strong industry connections and focus on practical learning. Therefore, it’s crucial to evaluate the top universities as well the programs they offer that suit you. Here’s a table to help you make an informed decision: 

Cost of Studying and Living

Since the Indian rupee value (INR) is weaker than Canadian and Australian dollars, Indian students are concerned about the budgeting. Because the cost of studying abroad involves more than just tuition fees. It involves cost of living i.e rents, food, electricity, transport etc. However, there are a few things to keep in mind when comparing the two countries:

While Canada offers a more budget-friendly option for students, Australia’s higher living expenses are balanced by strong employment opportunities and post-study work prospects. Both countries offer numerous scholarships to ease the financial burden on international students. Ultimately, choosing between the two depends on financial planning and career goals.

Student Visa Process

International students who qualify for admission to Canadian and Australian universities have to apply for a student visa in order to study at these universities. The student visa requirements vary for each country, the following details have been elaborated on country-wise for reference. The table also contains details about work opportunities and PR pathways by each country after graduating.

Lifestyle and Work Opportunities

To stay in a foreign country for a long period, international students must take note of lifestyle aspects, such as cultural diversity, safety, and climate. Canada and Australia offer vibrant student lifestyles but differ in climate and cultural experiences. Canada is known for its multicultural cities, safety, and cold winters, while Australia offers a sunny climate, outdoor activities, and a relaxed lifestyle. So it’s clear that Australia has a suitable climate and weather 

conditions compared to Canada.

Another more important reason why Australia is a great choice for immigration, is job security. In Australia, you can be sure that you will have a stable job and a good income with its employment rate standing at 66.7%. The Canadian economy is also currently doing very well, with low unemployment and strong growth. This means that there are plenty of jobs available, and companies are often willing to invest in their employees by offering training and development opportunities.

How La Forêt Education Can Help You?

Navigating international education can be overwhelming, but La Forêt Education is here to guide you. Our expert counsellors help students choose the right country, prepare for IELTS, PTE, CELPIP, and TOEFL, and streamline visa applications. With personalized guidance, we ensure students achieve their study-abroad dreams hassle-free.

Conclusion

Canada and Australia both offer excellent education, career opportunities, and student-friendly policies. While Canada is more affordable and offers strong PR pathways, Australia provides a dynamic lifestyle and industry-focused learning. Ultimately, the best choice depends on your priorities—whether it's tuition fees, lifestyle, or career prospects. No matter your choice, take the leap with confidence and work towards a bright future!

Significance of Hindu Temples in Australia’s Spiritual Landscape

Hindu temples are sanctuaries of devotion, culture, and spirituality. In Australia, where multiculturalism thrives, Hindu temples serve as vital centers that preserve the faith and traditions of the Hindu diaspora. Each temple reflects the vibrancy of Hinduism, fostering unity and spiritual connection among devotees. From the hindu temple South Australia to the hindu temple Sydney, these sacred spaces are essential pillars of the Hindu community.

Role of Hindu Temples in Cultural Preservation

Hindu temples are not merely places of worship but are community hubs that offer spiritual guidance and promote cultural practices. In Australia, these temples connect the diaspora to their roots by celebrating festivals, organizing cultural events, and offering classes on Indian languages and scriptures. The hanuman mandir Adelaide is a prime example of such a temple that bridges the cultural gap for Hindus living away from their homeland.

The Spiritual Essence of Hanuman Ji Mandir

The hanuman ji mandir holds a special place for devotees who seek blessings and spiritual strength. Lord Hanuman, known for his devotion and courage, is worshiped here with great reverence. The temple not only serves as a sacred space for prayer but also fosters a sense of community among its visitors. Special events and rituals dedicated to Lord Hanuman attract devotees from far and wide.

Hindu Temple in Adelaide: A Beacon of Faith

The Hindu Temple in Adelaide stands as a spiritual and cultural landmark in South Australia. Known for its serene atmosphere and vibrant community, this temple is a sanctuary for those seeking solace and divine blessings. The temple hosts regular rituals, bhajans, and festival celebrations that bring together people of all ages, fostering a deep sense of unity and devotion.

Hindu Temple Sydney: A Testament to Faith

In Sydney, the hindu temple Sydney is a beacon of spiritual harmony. It serves not only as a place of worship but also as a cultural center for the Hindu community. This temple actively engages devotees through yoga sessions, spiritual discourses, and cultural events, ensuring that Hindu traditions are passed on to the younger generations.

Architecture and Spiritual Ambiance

Hindu temples are renowned for their intricate architecture, symbolizing the universe and its elements. The temples in Australia, such as the hindu temple South Australia, combine traditional Indian designs with local influences, creating a unique blend of beauty and sanctity. These temples are built to foster peace and mindfulness, making them ideal for meditation and spiritual rejuvenation.

Beyond their religious functions, Hindu temples play an essential role in community development. They organize charitable initiatives, such as food drives and educational programs, which benefit both devotees and the broader community. The hanuman mandir Adelaide, for example, runs programs that help promote values of compassion, service, and inclusivity.

Festivals such as Diwali, Navratri, and Hanuman Jayanti are celebrated with grandeur in Hindu temples across Australia. These events are more than just religious occasions—they are vibrant expressions of culture that bring communities together. The Hindu Temple in Adelaide and other temples host elaborate celebrations, complete with traditional music, dance, and feasts, making them joyous occasions for devotees and visitors alike.

Bridging Generations

Hindu temples in Australia are crucial in bridging generational gaps. They offer younger generations a platform to learn about their heritage through rituals, mythology, and cultural practices. Temples like the hindu temple Sydney play an instrumental role in instilling a sense of pride and belonging among children and young adults.

How to Experience Authentic Indian Cuisine with Outdoor Catering

If you're a fan of bold, vibrant flavors and aromatic spices, experiencing authentic Indian cuisine through outdoor catering is an absolute delight. Outdoor catering offers an opportunity to enjoy the richness of Indian food in a relaxed and festive environment. Here's how to make the most of it:

1. Choose a Menu That Highlights Regional Specialties

India is known for its diverse culinary traditions, with each region offering its unique flavors. When opting for Indian outdoor catering, ensure the menu represents a range of dishes from various regions. Whether it’s the fiery curries of South India, the rich gravies from the North, or the street food delights of Mumbai, variety is key. Popular choices include:

Biryani: A fragrant rice dish infused with spices.

Tandoori Chicken: Chicken marinated in yogurt and spices, cooked in a traditional clay oven.

Samosas: Crisp pastry filled with spiced potatoes or meat.

2. Live Cooking Stations for Fresh Flavors

Live food stations add an interactive element to your event. Watching chefs prepare fresh naan, dosa, or chaats right in front of you is an experience in itself. These stations allow guests to customize their dishes and enjoy them hot and fresh. It also adds to the authenticity, replicating the street food culture that’s so beloved in India.

3. Spice it Right

One of the hallmarks of Indian cuisine is the delicate balance of spices. From the warmth of cumin and coriander to the heat of chili powder, spices play a vital role in creating the signature Indian flavor profile. Ensure that the catering team tailors the spice level to suit your guests, offering both mild and spicy options.

4. Pair with Authentic Drinks

No Indian meal is complete without beverages like Mango Lassi (a creamy yogurt drink) or Masala Chai (spiced tea). These traditional drinks can elevate the dining experience by complementing the bold flavors of the food.

5. Create an Authentic Ambiance

The overall experience can be enhanced by the setting. An outdoor event can be transformed into an Indian cultural celebration with traditional décor, such as vibrant colors, marigold flowers, and intricate fabrics. Music, like Bollywood hits or classical Indian tunes, can set the mood and create a festive atmosphere.

6. Sweet Endings with Indian Desserts

Indulge in a variety of Indian sweets for dessert. Some crowd favorites include:

Gulab Jamun: Sweet dumplings soaked in syrup.

Rasgulla: Soft, spongy balls of paneer soaked in sugar syrup.

Kheer: A creamy rice pudding flavoured with cardamom and saffron.

Indian outdoor catering in Sydney has gained immense popularity for its vibrant and flavourful cuisine, perfect for a range of events from weddings to corporate functions. This style of Indian outdoor catering in Sydney brings the rich and diverse flavours of India to outdoor settings, creating a lively and immersive dining experience. With a variety of traditional dishes such as samosas, tandoori, biryanis, and regional specialties, Indian outdoor catering offers something for every palate. Caterers in Sydney not only focus on authentic taste but also incorporate elaborate presentations, using traditional decor, food stations, and cultural elements, making the event visually stunning and memorable. Whether it's a large celebration or an intimate gathering, Indian outdoor catering brings warmth, festivity, and exquisite culinary experiences to any event.
