This was further whipped up by the variety of dishes produced by her that represented originality and locality, typical to Sylhet. The opportunity to visit Sylhet again in quest of food arose again when I visited Sylhet after a hiatus of several years since my last visit in 1970 along with a friend. For the road trip, I secured a sturdy Land Rover, and for the night accommodation, I got the Sylhet circuit house (using my government position). For the main event, eating Sylheti dishes, I sent appeals to my loving uncle in Sylhet that these be arranged for us in our ancestral village. Among the fruit trees that we were attracted to were those that bore kamranga, bel, boroi, and ada lebu.
