The dessert was made of rice, gur, milk and coconut.

Kobita wanted Paul to write something for her school magazine.

Kobita's mother was unwilling to come in front of Paul because she was shy and did not want to face a stranger.

Since Paul came to Bangladesh, he was only having vegetables and fried eggs. He was tired of eating only these items. When he ate delicious dishes like chicken curry, fish bhuna, dal, dessert etc, he became quite delighted. He enjoyed the tastes of these Bangladeshi dishes, which he never had before. Therefore, the lunch at Kobita's house would definitely attract Paul to other Bangladeshi dishes.

When Paul visited Kobita's house, he wore blue trousers and a grey T-shirt.

For Paul, Kabita's mother cooked a number of Bangladeshi dishes including plain rice, chicken curry, fish bhuna, dal, salad, etc.
