Indian Birthday Party Main Course recipes, ideas

Birthday parties today are grand affairs. Gone are the days when kids would just come over, burst balloons, cut a cake, relish a slice of it with samosa or chips, and end the evening playing outside. Be it for children or adults, today’s parties are more elaborate, requiring more attention to details like decorations, gifts, entertainment and of course, food.
