May 5, 2020, 12:55 amVividh Vani available in India? Are there English translations?
Rita

May 5, 2020, 1:12 amThank you for the prompt reply. I have the pdf with me but would have been happier with a print copy. Request Amazon India to list it for purchase.
Rita
May 5, 2020, 7:52 amHi Keki,
At the moment Amazon prints it only in USA, who knows India maybe next! Will keep requesting Amazon.IN
In the meantime, if you have friends in US, UK, DE, FR, ES, IT, JP, and CA. (USA, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Japan and Canada)
they can get the paperbacks for you.
Have you seen the volumes on our website ? Direct Link is https://parsicuisine.com/vividhvani/
Keep in mind they are very large and thick and take up some space in the suitcase 🙂
Best regards and stay safe and stay healthy,
Rita

Jul 7, 2020, 8:19 amHi Rita, in the first place – THANKS A MILLION for the great job that you are doing. Just a suggestion, if you have a section for “Gluten free”, how about another tab for “Sugar free” for partial Type B diabetics like me?
Rita
Jul 7, 2020, 9:13 amHi Rami,
The recipes/categories for “Gluten free” and “Sugar free” were already there, got hidden. It is a HUGE website!
I have placed them in the drop-down menu. Hope you can see them now.
Best regards,
Rita
