Festival Time! India Fest this weekend!

Memphis has awesome festivals during the Fall, and while Fall isn’t here just yet, it is time to get started with the great India Fest. I’m going to steal a few words from their website, because I think they say it best:

India Fest showcases and promotes awareness and appreciation of the vibrant art, culture, music, cuisine, and heritage of India among people of greater Memphis. It helps foster multi-cultural interaction and education and provides a greater understanding and appreciation for the diversity of India’s culture.

I know this is going to be a great time to get out and listen to some great music, learn some fun things, gain a greater appreciation of an incredibly lively culture, and most importantly to get some really good food. We have some great Indian restaurants around town, but this will be a fun way to really get totally into the spirit! Plus, check out this awesome chart:

You can get tickets all over town (link). I’d recommend getting them at the Asian Groceries on American Way and stopping in the attached Maharaja Cafe for some lunch. I ate dinner over there the other night, and it was fantastic. My post on it will come up soon. So get out to the India Fest this weekend for some food and fun!

See you there!
