If you have played any of the city building games, you are sure to be bowled over by this “browser” game. I am a very big fan of Sierra’s Pharaoh. I stumbled up on this website a few days back just to see that this has been in existence for a long long time. The game is very interesting, as its more of city building and trading than wars. I personally was not very impressed with Travian ( www.travian.com ), as it was more war based, and when you start, the player who has been there next to you, would just loot you with his large army and you will be left to start from first. Immortal Cities: Nile Online is a free to play persistent browser-based empire and city building game set in ancient Egypt. Play with thousands of other players as you construct cities and monuments worthy of your legacy as Pharaoh! Nile Online is casually paced; it's something you can play throughout the day, minutes at a time. The game is free to play and there is nothing to download or install -...

I served it to my husband(who happens to be a Maharashtrian, by the way) with a dash of lime and he told me they make it too and it’s called “Sushila” I kind of felt weird about the name, sounds like the name of a girl….Its called Pori Uppuma down south….what the heck, call the dish by any name it still tastes the same, there is some variation fr...
