Basa Bangladeshi & Italian Fusion
We love a fusion. Grown up children loves to "mix it up" in the kitchen. We think "really?" and actually tasting some of their creations, we think wow! that is something really, really good. Here we have a Bangladeshi mix with our Italian twist. This basically originated from finding Indian spices and quick to cook pasta (cupboard availability) and hope for hot dish. Bang tastico!
