Mylapore Indian Restaurant, Folsom CA
The name Mylapore brings a surge of pleasant memories to many of us. Mylapore is synonymous with the famous Kapaleeshwarar temple, Rangoli festivals, Music Clubs, Raasi Silks, Sukra Jewelry (most recently) and great inexpensive eateries serving mouth watering food. We are also reminded of [+]the expansive vegetable market near the Mylapore tank and The Mylapore Club which till date is the only vegetarian club in Chennai that refuses to serve alcohol unlike its counterparts Gymkhana Club and Cosmopolitan Club.
Mylapore is a South Indian Vegetarian Restaurant where the emphasis is on freshness and quality. Authentic South Indian cuisine and a casual atmosphere come together at Mylapore. Spiced to tantalize and priced just right, Mylapore is the perfect place for a casual affordable meal, be it a work day or a weekend get together. Lighter, occasionally spicier, and more varied in flavors than the cuisines of other parts of India, we serve over 25 varieties of dosas and Uthapams. We also serve traditional South Indian Thali food the contents of which change everyday depending on what is available fresh in our local Farmer's Market.

She brings to Thai Paradise her secret family recipes that have been handed down for centuries. For the last 12 years she has delighted thousands in Northern California with the best Thai Cuisine.
Her style of cooking is unique as she borrows from all regions of Thailand. Her basic family recipes draw on the Northeast of Thailand where she is from, but her special sauces and curries have an exotic Bangkok flavor from the Royal Thai Cuisine. She cooks from memory as her recipes are all in her head. Her real secret though, is that she loves to cook and puts love into every dish she makes.
What makes Jarunee's Thai Food so special is that it is delicious but it is also very fresh and healthy. She puts no MSG in her food and uses very little oil. It is a mixture of flavors; sweet, sour and spicy, of all the foods of the world, Thai Food is one of the most nourishing and beneficial for the body because it is full of antioxidants. Turmeric, ginger, galangal, garlic, basil and Thai chilies are just some of the antioxidant spices that that make up her Thai dishes. The reason of course for the spices originally was to preserve the food in the hot climate of Thailand before refrigeration, but it ends up giving her food both its delicious taste and good nutrition.

Lotus
The lotus flower grows in muddy water and rises above the surface to bloom with remarkable beauty. At night the flower closes and sinks underwater, at dawn it rises and opens again. Untouched by the impurity, lotus signifies the purity of [+]heart and mind and its flower represents long life, health, honor and good luck. Traditionally, the lotus flower is often symbolized with 8 petals.
8
The number Eight is an important number in many cultures and religions.
In China, 8 is considered a lucky number because it pronounced similarly to the word “prosperity†(發; fÄ). The number Eight (å…« hachi) is also considered a lucky number in Japanese culture, but the reason is different from that in Chinese culture. 8 gives an idea of growing prosperously, because the character (å…«) broadens gradually.
In Buddhist tradition, the number Eight means completion. In Taoism, Bagua, an ancient symbol with 8 sides, represents the forces in the phenomenal world. The Egyptians believe that 8 is the number of balance and equilibrium. In Hebrew history, 8 is perfect intelligence. In Hinduism, 8 is the number of wealth and abundance. Hanukkah is an eight-day Jewish holiday that starts on the 25th day of Kislev.

Stories and facts about Lotus and the number Eight can go on and on and on ……
