Core Tip: Monsoon showers do come as a relief but also bring with them health irritants like allergies, infections and indigestion. There's no need to panic, say experts, who suggest small variations in eating habits to keep problems at bay.
The increased humidity in atmosphere takes a toll on the body's digestion. Some dietary changes can help sort this out. Eating right during the monsoon can be very tricky. Structuring a requisite monsoon diet and keeping few dietary precautions in mind can save one from the risk of developing health problems during this season. 
 
Since the humidity levels are high during the monsoon because of which the capability of the body to digest is at its lowest, digestion is generally weak. Hence one should keep away from the oily food and if you are one of those who love to eat out then binge into oriental cuisines this season. Who says eating oriental food isn’t healthy during rains? With Shiro, devising a monsoon menu, the patrons have less to worry about in the capital.
 
One should not go in for boring green leafy veggies, instead opt for salads like grilled lemongrass chicken salad, a healthy option for monsoon that includes orange, garlic, chopped, green lettuce lollorosso, refreshing lemongrass, asparagus and bell peppers. These vegetables are light on the stomach and with grilled chicken complimenting the spread, it’s a must have during rains. Other options include Pomello salad with Thai mint recipe, a chef’s recommendation at Shiro. When it comes to drinks and beverage for the season, an amalgamation of spice and tangy always works. One can try different cocktails like Shanghai Sunset (a combination of tequila, green melon juice, fresh pineapple juice and cranberry juice).

Consumption of a Japanese soup, is advised during monsoon to keep flu away and it helps to get rid of harmful toxins. Besides providing nutrition from veggies present in the soup, it kills bacteria. You can try different combinations or go in for simple flavours like the ‘Miso’ soup which is a clear tofu soup. For the wine sommeliers, Shiro recommends Sangria. The fruit punch is available in both red and white wine. Also if you drink Sangria, you are filling your body with an excellent range of vitamins and minerals, including Vitamins A, C and B^, Thiamin, Riboflavin, calcium and some dietary fibre and protein.  It can also be made at home and it tastes fantastic! 

A meal for two would cost the diners about Rs 2,000, exclusive of taxes. It is open between 12:30pm and 3:30pm and between 7pm and 1am.
