    Bread is associated with many religions which makes sense as it is said that bread is life.

    Fascinating glimpse of life in Mumbai!

    I love roti. We used to be able to get it in South Florida - lots of islanders make it - and it's wonderful!!! Great shot of a slice of life there.

    Great scene capture. I am reading Vikram Chandra's "Sacred Games" and your pictures help putting images of Mumbai in my head.

    I love breads of the world! I especially love Indian bread.Once at a wonderful Indian restaurant in NYC, we saw a type of bread being made by placing the dough against a deep,cylindrical oven. I think it was roti.

    I've never been to Indian but so far the best Indian food in the world to ME is in London.

    Best,
    Gina

    It looks good. I don't think that I've tried roti. I usually have naan.
