total timepass...

I had been hearing for ages about the awesome food that you can eat at some place called BTC (Bhagat Tara Chand).. A friend used to go there every weekend apparently and raved about it all the time.. So I decided to check it out for myself if it was worth all the praise and what a worthy revelation it was!! BTC is located in Kalbadevi area in Mumbai and serves Sindhi food. However, there are five-six shops in that area all of which use the same name!! Its tough to find the original one now:). My guess is it used to be one famous eating place earlier and now after family feuds and splits, all the brothers use the same name for their own shops. Apparently all of them serve similar food, so you can try any of them. On the outside they don't seem impressive, but you just need to go in once to know what they offer!! Anyways, first of all, reaching this place is a nightmare! Its near the Mumba devi temple in Kalbadevi and is one of the most crowded areas in Mumbai. The cab driver may jus

I have obviously not eaten gol-gappe everywhere in the world to make a statement like the above, but have been enough of a connoisseur all through my life to spot the ones which beat the rest.. And I recently tasted them! Its at Rajouri Garden market in Delhi, in a shop called simply, 'Guptas'. Its a sweet shop but the chat it serves outside beats anything else you may have tasted ever. If you get a chance, you HAVE to go there..! Yummm.. They taste just the right bit of spicy and salty and yummy and light and heavy... You have to eat them to know them! I am getting a high just thinking about those!!

Its a first that am writing a review for an eating place, but this place surely deserves it!! Good tasty delicious North Indian food is a rarity in Mumbai, and this has really been a fortunate find for us. Located in Andheri (West), Urban Tadka is heaven for people who are looking for goooood food! I would surely recommend this restaurant to someone who wants to have a tasty meal; its even worth going halfway across town till Andheri to have this yummy fare:). The ambience of the place is rustic and rural, trying to portray something similar to villages in Punjab. And the food totally totally rocks, I don't really have too many words to say it. It was yummy, tasty, with lots and lots of butter and totally mindblowing food. I tried the Dal Makhani, Butter Naan, Aloo and Biryani there. They are surely pure heaven, other dishes can't really comment on, but given what I ate, the rest should also be comparable. A must frequent place.

Had heard countless times and especially in Bollywood movies, about the paranthe-wali gali in Chandni Chowk in Old Delhi, and always wondered what was so great about it! This time, I finally figured out why actually its so famous and talked about:). It was my first trip to the famed bazaar of old, and it was fun to walk through the myriad gallis of the market, window shopping all kinds of things possible and for extremely unbelievable rates. And in one of such small gallis, next to some saree shops are the two-three parantha shops which give the street its name. The rates are cheap and they give you a full thali, with some sabzis, chutneys and salads. And the paranthe come with various fillings (some very uncommon ones too)! And they taste yummm! You have to once go and eat these for yourself to understand what they are like.. The shops of course at first sight may not be inviting, but once you go past its look, the food tastes like heaven.. try it once for sure:)
