Madhav Uncle turns 60 with a Big Bang

After a relaxing day at home we headed out in the evening to my Father-in-Law’s place. It was his 60th Birthday and much to our surprise he was at home smug with the fact that he had got the best birthday present ever. We thought he would be at the Tollygunge Club playing golf. Well had had finished playing and his team had just beat RCGC to win the tournament. I guess there was no way any gift could top that for the Captain of the Tollygunge Club Golf team.

So we waited till the rest of his buddies came later on and we indulged in some awesome single malt and then headed out to this new eatery that had opened in Salt Lake Sector V. Barbeque Nation it was called. I had been to the one in Bangalore and they had finally opened up in Kolkata. So once we got there a bit after 9.30pm, there was a slight problem with the reservation we had made for the 14 people, but nothing my wife couldn’t handle. A stern sounding off and the manager had the place arranged for us in less than 5 minutes. Well after the initial hiccup, the party was back on track, The Kebabs and tikkas kept coming and the beer kept flowing and all our conversations drowned in the live music being played right alongside our table. Interesting ensemble that had a violinist accompanied by a percussionist, keyboardist & guitarist (later I realised while they were packing up that the reason the guitarist had dark glasses on the whole time was because he was blind) kept the place alive with their music. They even played Happy Birthday when a bottle of Moet Chandon was popped in honour of the Birthday ‘Boy’. At the end of the evening, we all went back in high spirits with a momentous evening behind us.
