Jodhpur -- [11/2/2003 journal] Arrived after dark at the Ajit Bhawan. Another variation on Heritage hotels - lovely setting – gardens behind a large lodge, with bungalows spread out among trees teeming with parrots and other birdlife. The rooms were individually decorated in 'Indian kitsch' – rough wood carvings, paintings and keys that weighed 2 lb each with unwieldy old locks to match. Dinner was a Buffet 350R [one of the most expensive we’d find, but well worth it] - decent but spicing very toned down -even the 'chillie chicken'.  One waiter, overly concerned for our western palates, tried to stop me taking a side dish of mango pickle, saying we wouldn’t like it! After yet another tiring day, we relaxed in the open air, and enjoyed traditional music, dancing and puppet shows.
