&quot;I love the food served at The Lords, in Sidney, in (Motera at) Ahmedabad. But I am never happy with food served by CAB (Cricket Association of Bengal-the local cricket association in Kolkata&#39;s Eden Gardens),&quot; said Sehwag. <img alt="Virender Sehwag" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/mar/skip-sehwag.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 367px;" /> &quot;A lot of times I have opted for only sandwiches at the Eden IPL (Indian Premier League) is different. There the food is not served by the CAB.&quot; Embarrassed no end after the damning comment from the Najafgarh man, the CAB went on damage control mode by asking the caterer to improve the standards during the Dec 5-9 India-England Test match at the Eden. &quot;We always want to serve good and a great variety of food to the players. But the problem they have stringent diet restrictions,&quot; said CAB reasurer Biswarup Dey. &quot;We will provide him whatever delicacies he wants. And our only demand is he should get a hundred,&quot; added Dey, trying to make it light. A relevant piece of information here is that Sehwag is a former restaurateur. He had opened his signature vegetarian eating joint &quot;SehwagFavourites&quot; in Delhi&#39;s Fun Republic Cineplex in 2005. Speaking at the launch of a book &quot;Cooking on the Run&quot; by writer Boria Majumdar, opener Ajinkya Rahane mentioned his love for Japanese Sushi, while spinner Ravichandran Ashwin was all for south Indian food. There was unanimity among the players - including Ashwin&#39;s spin partner Pragyan Ojha and tennis star Mahesh Bhupathi - that a sumptuous spread was the best way to boost oneself after a poor day on the ground.
