Our abode in the vibrant city had to be extra special and hence we chose Montien Surawong Hotel.

Our Mogul-full stay at ITC Mughal in the City of Love- Agra!

Travel January 31, 2021

It was hard to resist travelling over the last 8 months. Finally, we thought of taking the plunge, packed our bags, picked the car keys and headed to Agra for a royal stay at ITC Mughal.

This time our trip was extra special as it was our first trip post lockdown after a gap of 8-9 months. The old and heritage city Agra known as the ‘city of Love’ not only has the marvelous Taj Mahal but also has the splendid ITC Mughal. ITC’s luxury collection hotel is situated in close proximity to Taj Mahal and is a tribute to the Mughal builders of the past as this hotel is historic and is inspired by the heritage Mughal monuments like Fatehpur Sikri and Agra Fort.

Celebrating Ramadan at the city of Nizams with Novotel Hyderabad Airport!

Travel May 23, 2019

I love the vivid culture India has where one gets to learn about different religions as well as their festivities. I have enjoyed the splendour of Christmas as much as I enjoy Diwali so when I got an invitation for a Ramadan Food Walk from Novotel Hyderabad Airport we could not say ‘NO’. After a 2 hour flight we landed in Hyderabad, the City of Nizams from where in a few minutes we entered the plush and beautiful hotel. A look around and I was captivated with the serene surroundings filled with greenery and nature.

Food June 28, 2016

TGIF!!! Thank God It’s Friday. My office team usually skips home lunch and orders from outside on fridays, so we started to look out for food delivery joints that we had not tried before. We came across this one on Zomato- named FOOZY that delivers in Gurgaon alone for now and had great reviews so we decided to order from this place last Friday. We are a team of five and all of us absolutely love our food.

Browsing through the website, we got to know that FOOZY is a travel food brand that makes people travel the world with their taste buds. They also have a weekly rotating menu, which inculcates regional and international delicacies.

Bronies: A nostalgic location!

Food June 27, 2016

More than the food, it’s the nostalgia that takes you to the one place again and again! And one such place which is etched in my memory is Nirula’s Defence Colony…this used to be one favourite joint of mine and has given me fond memories…from amazing pizzas to Hot Chocolate Fudge…I felt really bad when I got to know it closed down! Though, I could not recall the last time I went there but its just that the memories we associate with certain places is what keeps you going! Remember the time when Orkut decided to shut operations? Yes, I went through a similar feeling!

Recently, I got to know about Bronies Gastropub. No, Bronies is not related to Nirula’s but it’s the location that that got me excited! Yes, “1 Defence Colony flyover market” has a new name. I wasn’t sure this place will be able to give me the same happiness that Nirula’s used to give me. But I was in to try out the place…afterall there is something called as loyalty! It not the restaurant, atleast the location 😉

Restaurant Review: The Chatter House, Khan Market

Food June 25, 2016

Khan market is in the heart of Delhi, very close to India Gate and is one of the greenest pockets of the city. We just got an opportunity to visit this place few days back and we had heard of many new restaurants opened up recently there and were little confused where to go. When we started searching a place to sit and eat, “The Chatter House” attracted us from the name itself. The way it was written outside, it fascinated us to go and try it once. We entered inside at around 7:30 in the evening and were welcomed by their pleasant staff. The first impression was quite good and we decided to sit there only. Very few people were around and the environment was flooded by pleasant lights and our favourite music. The visuals around were just amazing to believe. Two floors with around 40 seats each seemed to be really a great capacity. The interiors and the way everything was placed made us feel special. Red coloured bricks with different designs and light sources were drafting the wall beautifully. Walls were also having the posters of great music bands like Beatles and scripted by all time favourite songs and their chords. The Chatter House is a perfect getaway from the mundane flow of life, bringing alive the very essence of the pub culture made famous by the typical pubs of Europe. It made us sense an out of the box idea behind making The Chatter House as the heart of Khan Market in true sense.
