Alhamdolillah, some dishes are sweeter depending on how they are served. Take kheer, for example. Kheer is a desi rice pudding, and it's always good, alhamdolillah (at least when it's well made).
But somehow, if kheer is served at a wedding in Pakistan in these clay bowls, something happens. I'm not talking about how the bowls are stacked -- with one upside-down over the other so as to keep out flies and kids' fingers. Nor how the hang-time of these dishes approaches infinity -- none of the contents of the up-ended dishes will spill out!
No, it's the fact that nothing will taste better that night than the kheer in that dish. Alhamdolillah.
