In Love with Food BY ANGELINE

Rupa , foodie & instagrammer
Food is the most important thing in our lives ( at least i think so ). You feel low , there is chocolate to console you , your only true companion . You feel happy , then you turn to ice-cream which is a timeless mood booster . I came across Rupa , a Foodie Instagrammer and a Food Blogger who loves trying out different cuisines and indulge in new flavors . Her love for food crosses all boundaries which is why Le Amusant was excited to interview her and know more about her food adventures . Tell us a little bit about yourself : An unapologetic foodie by heart and a digital marketer by profession is what I am … People know me more as ‘ thefoodienion ’ than ‘ Rupa ’! Tell us about your love for food and what inspired you to start a food blog ? I started writing close to 4.5 years ago . Today , my life runs on food ! I am one of those people who loves to spend time planning about what cuisine should I try next ! I am always on serious eating break multiple times throughout the day . My friends have named me a COW , like literally , simply because I keep munching something or the other throughout the day ! I care less about what I wear to work .. Instead , I care more about what I ’ ll be taking for Tiffin What is the best thing about being a food blogger ? That ’ s a good question . Being a fitness junkie as well as a person who can never say no to food , no matter how deep-fried or sugar-coated it is , one of the biggest challenge for , me is to keep a tab on my portion sizes and of course watching my weight ! Tell us a little bit about any of your gastronomic getaway experience . The best thing so far about 2016 is my gastronomic getaway to Pune . January was about to end and I was almost broke ! With travel on my mind and just 2000 bucks in my pocket , I decided to visit Pune on a weekend , and like all hungry forever people my first agenda was to explore food in Pune !! And I must say , my visit to Pune ended on a bloated and gluttonous note !
