"Ugadi" is the name that is given to the celebratory period by Mangaloreans, who the GSB community is a part of. It's the first day of the lunar calendar and this year, it falls on April 6. Kini's pop-up will be held a day before. And the most important item that's part of the meal is the daal. It's the most ubiquitous Indian dish. The meal ends with what Kini's family calls the GSB fruit salad. The dessert is otherwise called satam. The texture is like that of a semi-dry, thick gravy, Kini says. And it has mangoes, apart from pineapple. Watch out for these two fruits soon in your market, given the season.
