B - 52


B - 52 is a layered cocktail that was invented in Banff, Canada in 1977, and was allegedly named after the long-range bomber used by the Americans during Vietnam War. It consists of coffee liqueur (usually Mexican Kahlúa), Irish cream (usually Baileys), and Grand Marnier orange liqueur.


In some versions, Grand Marnier can be replaced with triple sec, Amaretto, Cointreau, or even absinthe. If prepared correctly, the elements are built in a shot glass, and the layers should be visible, with coffee liqueur on the bottom and orange liqueur on top.


The classic B-52 version is served neat in a shot glass, while the variation known as Flaming B-52 usually comes with a top layer of rum, which helps to ignite the flame.
Sometimes people up the measures that’s ok just have to have bigger shooter glasses,
Also if you have problem lighting the grand marnier on top, its sometimes easier if you
heat up the grand marnier before layering it on top. Some other versions of B-5s is
B-57 Instead of using Grand Marnier you use Sambuca and the order is
Kalhua,Sambuca, Bailys (check order)
B-53 Vodka on top instead of grand marnier
B-54 Comes with Amaretto instead of Grand Marnier and the layering comes in different
(Double Check layering)
B-55 Same as B-52 but instead of Grand Marnier it comes with Absinth on top

kakori kebab

Kakori kebab is a traditional meat dish originating from the Indian town of Kakori in Uttar Pradesh. These kebabs are famous for their tender texture and fragrant aromas. They're prepared with a combination of mutton, ghee, eggs, cinnamon, and (often) chickpeas. The meat is marinated in a mixture of onions, mace, nutmeg, cumin, cardamom, cloves, green chili peppers, coriander, salt, black pepper, and ginger and garlic paste in order to become extremely tender. After being shaped into small elongated kebabs and skewered, the meat is cooked in a tandoor until done, and it's then usually served hot with chutneys on the side.

Pad Thai

Pad Thai is Thailand's national dish, a flavorful stir-fry (pad in Thai) dish consisting of rice noodles, tofu, dried shrimp, bean sprouts, and eggs. If it's made with meat, chicken and pork are some of the most popular choices. The flavors are an intricate combination of sweet, sour, and salty, with a well-balanced contrast of textures. Pad Thai is probably one of the most popular Thai dishes abroad. Its origins can be traced to a period of nationalism in the country, after the 1932 revolution that ended the absolute monarchy. There was a public contest to find a new national noodle dish, and the winner was a Pad Thai consisting of noodles, radish, sprouts, peanuts, and eggs. Tender rice noodles are additionally flavored with sugar, tamarind, lime juice, vinegar, and fish sauce, and the dish is traditionally served with ground red chilis, white vinegar, sugar, fresh lime wedges, and fish sauce on the side, so each consumer can garnish the meal to their preference.

Ghost Pepper

Ghost pepper or bhut jolokia is a hot chili pepper that's cultivated in the Northeast Indian states of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Nagaland, and Manipur. Due to the fact that it's one of the spiciest chili peppers in the world, the Indian Army even uses them to create military grade chili grenades (smoke bombs). These peppers have a Scoville heat unit ranging from 855,000 to 1,041,427 SHU. The flavors are best described as fruity, sweet, and earthy. These hybrids of Capsicum chinense and Capsicum frutescens were proclaimed the world's hottest chili peppers in 2007 by Guinness World Records, but in 2013 the ghost pepper was superseded by Carolina Reaper, which can be twice as hot. Interestingly, locals sometimes smear ghost peppers on walls and fences to keep wild elephants at bay.
