on the way to ambikapur last month, we came across this fruit stall in the middle of the forest, just before Chaitma.
the small yellow tendu fruit are delicious to eat, difficult to find in the towns now, and taste a bit like chikus. a very fibrous fruit, the fibres are arranged very artfully inside the crusty skin.
we got a handsome amount for ten rupees, and gorged on them till we were full.
