A welcoming food journey in a military retired colonel’s house- 38 Barracks

Food April 6, 2016

As they say, there’s no place like home, we entered a colonel’s home for dinner. The owner and promoter, Mr. Ankur Aggarwal personally took us for a home tour (we’re not using the term restaurant here, as the warmth and respect given to the eatery by the owner is of a military fan and respect involved).

38 Barracks is living room and a balcony of a retired colonel from military. Divided into different sections like a house, you’ll find the locker room, the living room, and balcony. They also have a small basement space for private gatherings which can cater about 50 people easily.

All Good Scents workshop

Beauty April 5, 2016

Okay, Let me first start by expressing my love for perfumes! I simply adore perfumes, I try all sorts of perfumes, categorize them by nose or note, and love to talk about them. My excitement knew no bound when I received the invite to be a part of “Make your own perfume” workshop by Rajiv Sheth of “All Good Scents”.

Before I tell you about All Good Scents, Let me share a memory. Three years back I had been to one of the Perfume stores at the Fashion street in Paris. On the top of many Paris ‘must do’ lists was ‘bring home a French perfume‘. Upon stepping foot in one of the stores in the fashion street, the enchanting atmosphere and olfactory delights swept me off the floor. The store felt like heaven, really! Minutes later, I returned to my senses when I checked the price label! I could buy just two, thanks to the skyrocketing Euro rates!

Lifestyle March 23, 2016

What do you mean by women empowerment? It does not mean creating a space for yourself in everybody’s heart that a women is capable of for that matter respected for. Women have far more tolerance power than men. They never say no and perform their daily duties without cribbing & getting tired and all their sacrifices just get unnoticed and in vain that’s the pain every women goes through daily. She faces more challenging life, situations, adjustments, compromises & health issues. Still she lives more, breathes more, makes her family smile and grow with each passing day.

They die more of chronic diseases, heart diseases, cancer, depression, anxiety, stress, arthritis, loneliness, osteoporosis, reproductive health issues or ovarian cancers. There is a need to spread awareness & for right to every women to live for herself and get total health check-ups done so that symptoms of ill-health and various dangerous complications going on internally & externally which drain the mind, body & soul are gauged as early as possible.
