In the North of France there is a historical city called Nantes. My friend Tristram decided to organise a campaign against food waste in this city so we packed up the van with the pots and burners and off we went for an adventure in France. HG Dandakaranya prabhu joined ISKCON in France in the early seventies so he had a good grasp of the French language, whereas I studied Freach for 6 years and can hardly say hello. HG Sanaka prabhu and HG Achinta rupa prabhu made up the team.
After a long drive we set up the kitchen and sorted the bhoga. The plan was to distribute the prasad in a big warehouse place, I didn’ t think anyone would show up for lunch so we sent a team to the local University. But as if by magic 6,000 people showed up and we cooked 3 massive pots of subji and poperdoms. The Franch people were super responsive to the prasad and we didn’t crack any jokes about frog’s legs or snails! Enjoy the movie
