Park Street: Sisters Nayanika and Juhi Dey from London were in for a surprise when they walked into Cha Bar at the Oxford Bookstore for a quick bite on Saturday afternoon. Awaiting them was a wide variety of snacks and nibbles from the world of Enid Blyton.

Nayanika, 9, was quick to order herself Faraway Tree Toasties - mushroom on toast - and Mr Jumbo's Chocolate Muffin, served with ice cream.

"Blyton's books transport you into a different world. I loved reading The Secret Seven, The Famous Five and The Faraway Tree series. I started with Malory Towers and I also like the St Clare's series and the other mysteries," gushed the student of Marshgate Primary School, London, whose favourite is (no prizes for guessing) The Faraway Tree.

The siblings were accompanied by mom Shrabani, an Enid Blyton fan herself. "When I read Enid Blyton's books as a child, I found all these things so out of this world - the description of the food, the picnics, the backyard storehouse. We never had all that. My daughters can relate to it much more than we could, in our time," she said.

The specially curated all-day breakfast menu at the Park Street tea shop marks Enid Blyton's 121st birth anniversary.

The food on offer is reminiscent of the elaborate picnics mentioned in The Famous Five and The Secret Seven and the late-night tucks from the Malory Towers series. Fans can choose from Jack's Secret Trove (jacket baked potato) and Moonface Special (scrambled eggs on toast) and Sea-side Picnic Sandwich (tomato and lettuce sandwich served with fries), to be washed down with lashings of Secret Seven Club Ginger Beer and Noddy's Hot Chocolate with Marshmallow (truffle shake's hot version).

Children, and their adults, can also answer questions and riddles based on Blyton's books in Short 2-Minute Mysteries or guess the names of books in a game of Hangman as they wait for their sip and bite.

Ishita Roy, an economics graduate from Jadavpur University and a young entrepreneur, was there to catch up with her tutor Manoj Garg when she managed to answer four out of five Blyton posers. "I was a big fan of Noddy," she smiled.

"Enid Blyton has always been a great draw with children and adults alike as her characters are very relatable. And this is created not only through her plots but also the way they live and eat. So we wanted to recreate that for ourselves as we, as a bookstore, have always aimed to go beyond just selling books and creating experiences which make reading even more enjoyable," said Swagat Sengupta, chief executive officer, Apeejay Oxford Bookstore.

The Blyton feast will be served till August 26 from 11am to 9pm.
