Week 'Ends' at Piccadilly Square

After spending the entire day at home, watching TV and building my paper models, we decided to head out for dinner.

After several options, we decided to head to Piccadilly Square near Minto Park. Parking would be a problem and joy of all joy, my wife as suggested we bike it there. The Kazi rides again. Well the Kazi has been out quite a bit of late, but every time I get to ride my Hero Honda Karizma, its sheer joy.

So off we rode into the city. As we approached Piccadilly Square, my wife threw the option of French Loaf which we were passing on our side of the road, but a plan was a plan and so we stuck to it and headed to Piccadilly Square.

Once we were there and I had parked the bike, we realised that the little eatery must do really well because it was packed and over-flowing. So I headed in and asked how long it would be before we got a table and was told about 5 minutes. Good thing that it didn’t even take 5, else we’d have gone to plan B, which was French Loaf across the road.

So we got our table and a menu and then my wife pointed out something amazing. This place, as “Phoren” as it did sound was a completely vegetarian joint. Yeah I realised that after sitting and having a look at all the people around us. They had “VEG” written all over their appearances.

Ok ‘so what’ we thought to our selves, we didn’t have to eat meat for it to be a good meal and went out on a limb to give the place a try. My wife popped in and took a look at the salads and ruled those out as the salads didn’t look to exciting, and so we ordered a Mixed Berries Shake while we mulled over what to order.

Finally we decided on a waffle and a wrap and when they came one by one, we just savoured them. The Creamy Mushy Mushroom Waffle was just mind blowing followed by a Popeye’s Pick wrap which was covered in white sauce and stuffed with spinach and a whole lot of other stuff.

I had place for just about one more item and so we decided to make it sweet and the Waffle Dublin Mudslide with a scoop of Ice-cream just made me slip-slide-away into complete bliss.

I’m definitely coming here more often.

The 7 Wonders at Eco Park

Pyramid & Sphinx Our last excursion to Eco Park in Rajarhat dates all the way back to February 2015. Since then, a myriad of transformations has swept through the park. During a recent journey to the airport, we caught sight of the park's latest additions, which had become the talk of the town, visible from Biswa Banga Sarani. That sighting ignited our decision to revisit the park. Naturally, we concurred that visiting on a weekend would be an exercise in chaos, so we opted for a weekday to fully savor the wonders that awaited us. To our surprise, even on a weekday, the park teemed with visitors. Upon entering Eco Park for a nominal fee of Rs. 30, we were immediately struck by the sheer value it offered. Personally, I would have willingly paid more for the privilege of glimpsing these marvelous creations. Rather than expound further, I'll let the images convey the essence of what lies within. That being said, it unquestionably merits an in-person visit to truly appreciate ...

Vintage Car Show 2018 at The Tollygunge Club

1947 MG TC So here we are once more at The Tollygunge Club on a cold winter morning to catch some rare beauties to warm our hearts. I try to catch these every year if possible and after my recent trip and the number of cars I've seen on it, one would think I'd give it a miss. This year's collection had most of the usual cars with an addition of some more to the fray.  What disappointed though was the limited number of super cars on display. But all that said, it's always a joy to see these wonderful gems still being cared for by their owners and offering us a glimpse into automotive history. So with that much said, I hope you'll enjoy the pictures of the cars below. 1947 MG TC 1938 Rolls-Royce 1938 Rolls-Royce 1953 Land Rover 1932 Ford V8 1932 Ford V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1956 BSA Bantam 1952 Willy's Jeep 1962 Triumph Spitfire 1962 Triumph Spitfire 1925...
