Hey Shantanu !
Thanks for the response :-)

@blue bike: Thank you! In Pune, if you are in the Aundh area, Mithas is a good option. For Roshogollas and Sandesh, there is a shop called Babumoshai in Khadki (opp HDFC Bank). If you are in Wanawadi, there is a shop called Calcutta Sweets. In MG Road, Karachi Sweets (near Bata, not the one in Aurora Towers) has some good Bengali sweets too.

@foodette: You have to try some of these. A trip to India may be worth just for the food and desserts, if you can stomach the spices, that is. :-)

@food&beverages: Thank you!

@rennyba: Thank you too!

Wow, your desserts sound so exotic to me. I am used to ice cream and cookies, so just the idea of these desserts are intriguing and make my mouth water. Great post!

I LOVE Galub, matter of fact I've eaten at a lot of bad restaurants just to get to the dessert!

Great new look on your site Shantanu!
Lastly, I have to poke at you on your custard comment.. "we" Americans? :)
