Hell, yeah, opposites do attract!

Bungee jumping? "Over my dead body!"you say. You are a nervous nelly even when on a stool. But suddenly you say one day, "Hey why not jump off a building?" Everyone looks at you like you've lost your marbles. But hey why not. It is such a similar moment when you decide to pop in one of Cheshta Malik's Chilli Chocolate. 

Recently Cheshta show cased her desserts from the 'Sweet Story' at Pizza Republic a couple of Saturdays ago. On the recommendation of a friend I had her 'chilli chocolate'. You pop it into your mouth and swirl it and wait. Nothing happens. Then you bite. That's when you realise she has distilled the essence of love/life in a chocolate: "One does not always have to kow-tow your partner's views. You add your own spiciness to life being yourself but in a harmonious way." 

Chilli and chocolate seem strange bedfellows. Not here. They play well within their borders of decency and with proper restraint. She must be using some cosmic scales to get the proportions right? It is like a madly-in-love couple with diametrically opposite views squabbling all the time. Passionately fiery. But their souls strung together. Could we name it the 'Lovers Tiff'? Brilliant!

Hell, yeah! Opposites do attract! But wish science at school was an entirely gustatory experience! *Sigh*
