You hear of food festivals every now and then so why should you attend this particular one we are talking about? Obviously not without a reason. The Theen Mura Fest for food has started in Bangalore about a week back. But the good news is that it will last another week so that you can enjoy the exotic flavours of Syria over here.

What Is So Special About Theen Mura Food Festival?
First of all how often do you get to taste Syrian food? Not that often, do you. Moreover it is not just plain delicacies from Syria but specifically Christian food. As you know Syria like India is a country that houses many religions including Islam and Christianity. This special food festival was organised specially in honour of Christmas this year. Although Christmas is over they are still serving authentic Christian food with a religious significance for Christmas.

Special Delicacies To Be Expected:
Of all the choice of food in Bangalore this spread is special and surprising closer home than you think.

Tharavu Roast, which is an exotic kind of roasted duck (called tharuva)
Borma Bread, A special variety of bread baked in the Syrian style
Appam, well is there a special Syrian recipe for Appam too!
Stew Meen Pattichathu, It is no doubt a fish (meen) delicacy and let the rest be a surprise for.
