Hop out of the metro, bus , cab or auto and hop inside The Bangalore Street Club
When I had visited Singapore a few years back , one of the many things I liked about them and wanted it to be replicated in India was the food court right outside the metro stations etc , where people could grab their dinner or meal on their way home. The options were varied so…
Masala Mandi – Invoking Old Memories
After over a year of break from real work I am getting back to the grind. After many weeks my calendar has started showing multiple calls at the same time , where I toggled , jumped in and out of calls etc. In one way it’s nice, on the other hand it was ‘fatigant’ (as…
15 Asian curries in the menu by #asian cuisine
This was my first visit to the #asiakitchen . luckily they have a #specialmenu of 15 #asian curries like Thai clay pot chicken with lemon and kaffir, Prawn Penang curry, lamb shank pendang curry or Malaysian fish curry.

As we cheered and waved Mama a high five
It’s a proud moment and great experience to be able to celebrate a milestone moment of one of our favorite restaurants. I still remember , years back when R and I visited #mamagato for a quiet meal . I remember savouring their dishes with ingredients like ‘waterchestnut’ which was a dear thing from my childhood…
Some places are meant for ‘self’ and they never fail , just like ‘khawa karpo’
When experiments with tea houses and coffee shops fail to impress me , I go back to my #soulfood place. I bet you can’t eat the Momo’s without the splash of juice .. a few Momos are required to make you an expert on how to handle these bite size Momo’s oozing juices otherwise deceptively…
Food and Friday memories revived on a lunch date
Since beginning of 2009 I am working in RMZ Ecospace on an off, in 2 different organizations. Irrespective of the organization, the Friday ritual was to eat out in the Bay. Initial days I was a regular at the Beijing Bites, but last few years I chose #californiaburrito bowls. Sometimes my friend cum last manager…
Dinner date series #cuban dinner
I shall keep it simple . Each dinner date is now about trying something we have not tasted before , something exotic or we don’t usually get in our ooru. After a day at two libraries , tonight R chose a Cuban restaurant near fifth avenue. The name of the place made me hum a…
My first taste of Haleem in this side of the world
We were exploring a different side of #newjersey today . The area’s name is oaktreeroad (beautiful, isn’t it). The entire afternoon when we walked around, I felt I was still in India , perhaps on a little break from the city, towards the hillstations like Ooty , coonoor etc. It’s the shops and houses and…
শুভ নববর্ষ! ❤ 1426 !
Back then , all through my growing up days, this time of the year was so special. Not only the first day of the year , actually the celebration started on the last day of the year ‘choitro shankranti’ and continued till ‘poila boishakh’. My grandma and mother started cooking since morning. Though no one…
