Wander-Clicks

Newspaper clip from 15th August, 1945 in the Cellular Jail Museum, Port Blair.
The clip speaks of a War on Poverty to banish Free India's biggest hurdle. The war is still on.

This awesome road - part of the BMIC : Bangalore Mysore Infrastructure Corridor - is meant to connect Hosur Road - Bannerghatta Road- Kanakapura Road - Mysore Road. I hear the government (the greedy ppl that run it, that is) have been blocking the project and so it remains incomplete. The connect across Bannerghatta Road is a lunar landscape. Knkpura Road to Mysore Road is a brilliant drive anyday.

That's a Mahindra Scorpio in a shiny bright yello with matte black trim and black-tinted windows. Bling Bling!!

How is this for size? I'm not sure if you can fathom the scale, but this carrot cake was huge. It must've been 1/4 kilo and it was served as dessert after dinner at the RockBottom.

Metro Transit is a network of buses and lightrail trains like this one.





The frequency isn't very good but with a little bit of patience you can get anywhere you want and back.

Double entendres in ads have become the norm rather than the exception. Takes a lot of creative ability to devise, I agree. Though, too many of them is a tad yawny!!

Found stuck in the PVR B'lore restroom.

Litchies with icecream @ Magnolia. After a long time, went there this sunday. The guy waiting on us was pretty rude :-(. Us having to repeat orders, him nonchalantly replying or not replying to our questions. The food's awesome though.

Got to use zook (thru SMS) to get Magnolia's number. Cool!!

@IIM, Bangalore

This was shot at the home-stay that I stayed at in Coorg on New Year's. Focal B/W in picasa.

Can you see the fog? Taken at 8 o'clock in the morn. The last two mornings in B'Lore have been very foggy.

Good ambience - it is themed after a cave (gufa). Unfortunately the food does not live up either to the theme or the cost. The sea-food was good, but the chicken and mutton dishes sucked big time. Oh, and also try to stay away from their "recommendations", unless it's on the menu. They tend to be over-the-top expensive.

Find it on the top-floor of The President hotel, Jayanagar 4th Block. Right next to the ICICI bank ATM on the corner.
