The varcha maala/upper storey in the 1849-built Pereira House has more rooms and a ladder leading to the attic which also doubles as a small storage area. Unlike the Vadval East Indian old houses in Vasai, the upper levels of the Valkar homes in the area included smaller storage spaces. While the former group required the use of these spaces to store their produce, the latter mostly stored their preserved foods, furniture and other bric-a-brac in these spaces. Thank you, Julie Pereira for letting me photograph your beautifully kept home. With this, we complete our exploration of Small Giriz' Pereira House and also our online project on the old East Indian houses in Giriz, Vasai. Look up the entire project under the #EIMCOHGPCalendar tag on Instagram. #eastindian #community #bombay #architecture #timberhomes #vasai #mumbai #thane #raigad #vasaiheritage #mumbaiheritage #heritagehome #oldhouse #vintagehome #cottage #village #calendar #stationery #calendar2018 #photography #March #EIMCOHGPCalendar #EIMCMar19 #EIMCGaothans #vintagefurniture #pereira #attic #marathi

The many windows of Pereira House. Built in 1849, the original house roomed at least eight intermingling families under the same roof. Over the decades, these families moved out to other parts of Giriz, Vasai, Bombay and also abroad, but Raymond and Ronnie - two of Valeytin/Valentine Pereira’s sons - still live in this section of the house. We featured this beautiful Valkar East Indian house in our 2018 calendar on Old Houses in Giriz Parish for the month of March. You can view more old houses under this hashtag #eimcohgpcalendar #Eastindian #eimcmar19 #Vasai #thane #raigad #mumbai #heritage #oldhouse #architecture #villagelife #windowsofinstagram #windowsoftheworld

“Aila ghaltaan, na taila kaadtaan/Putting it from here and removing it from there.”* That’s the best and quickest way to cook varyas/orias/bhokachey varey - the EI donut-shaped bread made from urad dal and rice. As they are so similar in taste to medu vada - their South Indian cousins - many households tend to add onions, chillies and spices to the batter. This batch is being prepared for the chav-dis - a post-wedding celebration - at the Rebello home in Sydney, Australia. *this is in the Valkar East Indian Marathi dialect. #eastindian #eastindiancuisine #food #bread #indianfood #indianfoodinaustralia #sydney #migrantstories #australia #weddingfood #wedding #marathi #language #india #EIMCFood #eimcmar19 #eimclanguagevideo #eimcmaiboli
