SPIRIT OF MUMBAI

                                                                                    " Let's go shopping for the mid-season sale! " I exclaimed excitedly on land line to my sister  expecting a cheerful ' Yay '. Instead her tearful ' Nay ' dampened my mighty Mumbai-spirit and concerned sibling-love. " Are you all right ? What's wrong with your voice ?".  She sobbed some more and then what followed was Love-Hate relationship story of  99.99% Mumbaikars.  BAE  = Before Anyone Else = Maid in Mumbai = Unpredictable domestic help whom you pay for holidays rather than for actual work.

Please don't kill me just yet for being so narcissistic cause I am going to make you more ecstatic with the Mangolicios Majestic   Feast at Khandani  Rajdhani   ( Phoenix Market City, Kurla ) At the entrance of the Rajdhani  ( Ek Khandani Parampara ) , We were greeted in a very traditional Indian way with a flower full ,Pooja thali , Chandan tilak and led inside by the manager. What followed was an authentic,  Royal Banquet! It started  with washing hands in a brass basin, by the warm water poured from a brass Suraee (I almost refused to do this but had to co-operate). Refreshingly cool, sweet & sour  Kairi-Panhe or Mango Lassi as per diner's choice. Usually , when we go for a restaurant review, we chat, we eat, we take lots of pictures-breaks for every new dish. And th...
