Eeks..can't believe I just called it that. Sounds terrible. Bangalore it is and always will be, like Bombay will never be Mumbai.
So the trip was fun. Had to be considering I was meeting S after a whole month. SO excited just to see him. Oh, lemme tell u, the flight was shorter than the bus journey from the airport to the destination - E City ! 2 and a half hours. Thank god it was a nice AC bus. But seriously, 1.5 hrs on the plane n 2.5 in the bus, not funny !
Bangalore was cold. Raining off n on and cold breeze. I quite enjoyed it coz we don't really have winters here.
Here are some random pics from the trip.
A lot of eating happened. Andhra thali, Tamilian thali, Chettinad food etc. etc. Those who love south-indian food must visit MTR (Lalbagh) and Nagarjuna (MG Road). Their thalis are awesome. The fish fry at Nagarjuna is delicious. Also, Anjappar at Kormangala for the chettinad stuff. Their specialty is the rabbit biryani.
Eating was accompanied and followed by a lot of drinking. Le Rock (rude waiter, ok place), Guzzler's Inn (cheap liquor) both off Brigade Road.
The finished Mojito
That is not wine. Thats old monk served in a wine glass :D
Do you know, I did NOT shop one bit ! I am so damn proud of myself. I just bought 2 pairs of earrings for a colleague worth just 40 bucks. N S's friend bought me this from the road side. Aint it cute, my Snoopy balloon :)
Here are some other note worthy points from the trip:
- There is a 10km long flyover to E City! Can u believe it ! 10 kms ! awesome !
- B'lore has a lot of under-age drinkers.
- The traffic sucks.
- The AC buses are so damn convenient !
- Movie tickets are expensive !
