ReplyDeleteIs kalamataolive&feta cheese available in INDIA?
ReplyDeletethe salad seems to be new for me ....
Yes I just checked, you do get both kalamata olives and feta cheese in chennai... For fets cheese -am sure Nilgiris HQ would have both... you can also check Amma naana or any other gourmet outlet. For kalamata olives - chk for them in the canned vegetable / fruit / food section. Also if not available you can replace them with black olives.
