Masala Dosa

Living in Mumbai for my entire life, I knew my decision to study in USA would involve many sacrifices. First and most important, no mummy's food, no family to support and care for you, no close friends to share your joys and sorrow. But the sacrifice which I unknowingly made surfaced one year later when I had a frozen masala dosa(thin pancake stuffed with potatoes). That was I first time I had a masala dosa since coming to USA. I suddenly realized how I missed the dosas served with steaming sambar(curry) and chutney(spicy sauce) back home in Mumbai udipi restaurants. The frozen dosas are nothing as compared to dosas prepared in some parts of India, but something is better than nothing. Ever since I haven't missed any oppurtinity to hog on dosas. There are so many other things which I miss. Do you have such things which you miss?
