————— While it was cold and snowy outside, every pony and creature were inside their toasty and snug abodes, celebrating the season among friends and family. It was no exception at the Tasty Treat, the restaurant being closed for both Hearth's Warming Eve and Day. A large family of ponies were chatting and hugging as they traveled far to Canterlot to celebrate with their loved ones, soon getting to the dinner table to have a wondrous feast. The beautiful and bold Saffron Masala happily arrived, carrying dishes of exotic meals and treats with her magic to showcase and eat along with her family. With appetizing dishes like malai kofta and mutter paneer, topped with slices of Allahabadi cake, Saffron certainly had a fun, festive night during the holidays. —————
Couldn’t do a holiday doodle without my favorite pony.
Of course, I had to have her sporting Indian-inspired holiday attire. Nothing big and poofy, but something more alluring and authentic to her. The same went for the food, going for something from the country Saffron Masala was inspired by instead of something you’d usually see in MLP. I went with malai kofta, mutter paneer, and Allahabadi cake, Indian foods you’d find being made for dinners or the holidays. Of course, these are more vegetarian foods I had to find since, well, they’re horsies. They don’t eat meat. As far as I know.
Hope you all stay safe and have a wonderful time with friends and family. Happy Holidays to all of ye.
