  The Pooja
During a Pooja, offerings are made to the fire (Agni devta), which is viewed as the mouth of the Divine – it is the actual feeding of the God.
During a Pooja, sixteen prescribed steps occur (symbolic of the sixteen ceremonies to be completed in the life span of a Hindu) including the welcoming of the Deity, giving the Deity a place to sit, the washing of the feet, decorating the Deity, and the offering of food items, clothing or money to seek blessings.
In addition, this particular Pooja not only celebrates happiness with light, but with song, chanting, tasting of food, ringing of bells, and the blowing of Conch shells as blessings are bestowed among family members.

You will therefore not be surprised to find there dishes of great quality, but you will nevertheless be surprised by the richness and variety of the ingredients and savours peculiar to each dish.
