Kathmandu based girl becomes Food Blogger after finding mashed potato inside Pani Puri

Kathmandu. Food blogging is a fashion that has been growing its popularity for last few years. Not everyone can become a food blogger as not everyone understands the ins and outs of it. Recently, a food blogger named Hanteni Kumari shot to fame after she became a food blogger just by identifying the presence of mashed potato inside Pani Puri served by her favourite Pani-puri wala.

Talking to Fake It Nepal she said “Not everyone can become a food blogger. You need to know each and every taste and the thin line that distinguishes these tastes. Earlier, I only used to know 2 tastes – sweet and spicy. But after tasting many different dishes made by mom, I came to know about the 3rd taste – sour. Once you’ve tasted enough foods and if you’re vocabulary is proficient enough, only then can you become a food blogger. and realised a very important thing. I had seen some food-blogging sites, so I logged into one and entered the review of my mom’s haluwa. I added important pointers like presentation of the dish (steel plates and spoon), service time (the dish was delivered after 45 minutes) and service quality (I was hurled abuses at when I complained). I gave a review of one star. My mom beat me with chappal when she read the review the next day. This is when I realised that this is my passion. I started eating at outside eateries and blogging about them. My first stint was at the roadside ‘Lollipop Lagelu Pani-puri wala’. I was barred from the place when I complained about the presentation in my blog and showed him the article. I started visiting eateries one after the other and blogging about them. I have been banned by 90% of them in the whole city. This is how I became famous. I’ll only be satisfied when I touch the 100 percent mark.”

So if you’re reading a food blog emphasizing the shortage of sugar in sugar-free chiya or number of khursani in Chatpatey, there’s a very high chance that it was written by Hanteni Kumari. We wish her all the best in her attempt to get banned by all the eateries in the city.
