Readers will recall that I moaned recently in Asian Voice about the inexplicably high price of chevda from East Africa compared with chevda produced in the UK or India.
I was therefore pleasantly surprised when a nice Gujarati couple (whom my wife and I know well locally in west London), told us they had seen my letter here and decided to spring into action.
The good lady, Ranjan Patel, made the most delicious and spicy chevda specially for us which her husband Kirit kindly delivered to our door. It was a lovely gesture and my wife and I would like to thank our Gujarati friends again through Asian Voice which, in a way, highlights the paper’s power and influence.
