Travel September 8, 2023

Our abode in the vibrant city had to be extra special and hence we chose Montien Surawong Hotel. Nestled in the heart of Silom, Bangkok’s most vibrant and exciting district, it is close to all the major tourist attractions, including the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, and the Jim Thompson House.

Our first International trip post Covid had to be special. Afterall we waited for 3 long years to go overseas. We chose to go to Thailand, a destination which I did explore a few years back and absolutely loved it. So why not relive the nostalgia!

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.

#KnowYourMom

Food May 8, 2016

Mothers are special. Whether it’s your Mother or Mother-in-law…they are your support system. Afterall, mother’s are the ones who know what you like, dislike and what you love…whether its shopping or food…they exactly know what you need…but does anyone of us know what our mom needs or what they like or dislike…This is what I realized when I got to know about the campaign done by Dine Out. The brand did a special campaign called #KnowYourMom. It was based on the fact that most of us are clueless on being asked about our mom’s favourite dish.

Up for a classy dinner after a crazy Monday blue- {Niche} Lounge & Bistro it is!

Food May 2, 2016

Located in the outer circle of Connaught Place, opposite the fire station, Niche Lounge & Bistro is spread across the floor along with an al fresco dining area divided into two areas. The inside-seating area has stylish white and wooden accent interiors dominated with leather upholstery, paneling on walls, an odd 20-seater Long Island-style bar and a glass ceiling. It also has a stage for performance. The stage concept gives the place a kind of jazz look, but suits the decor though, apt for stand-up comedy too. The al fresco area gives you a complete different ambiance, and not like other CP eateries of the flag, but a cosy low floor seating with an old bark tree in one and a dimly light road side view on the other. The property can divide and block the area too for private parties and not disturbing the other guests.
