It has the same directness of War Minister Lord Kitchener’s “ BRITONS Wants You!”, which was published in 1914 as a call to join the First World War and inspired Uncle Sam’s infamous “ I want YOU for US Army”. This poster, dropped into Assam by the Japanese in 1944, is eerily reminiscent of others from history.

The text, appearing in sections across the page in Hindi and Bengali, recalls pivotal moments in the subcontinent’s history: the 1765 Massacre in Dhaka, the first war of Indian independence in 1857, the 1919 Amritsar massacre, and the First World War sacrifices in 1918.

The wine menu includes Cabernet Sauvignon, Aglianico, Syrah, Montepulcano, and a port blend with Zinfandel, Grenache, and Alicante, along with two whites: Albarino and Sauvignon Blanc.Ĭhapin said he chose Alicante and Montepulcano to pair with the chocolates as they are less fruity and better complement the chocolates.
