Do you own a Honda Car

Do you live in Gurgaon and own a Honda car? Well, if yes then you know that it is a pain to get your car serviced as there is only one authorized service provider from Honda in Gurgaon: Ring Road Honda.  Or this was the case till 2-3 months ago.  I purchased my Civic from Ring Road Honda more than a year ago, and since then it has always been a pain to get servicing done because they are always so busy. You have to take appointments much in advance and then too, you are not assured of a timely service because they are so overbooked.

Finally, that has changed.

My experience with Max Hospital Gurgaon

I recently had to get my wife admitted to the Max Hospital in Gurgaon. Below is a review based on my experience of this facility. Overall, I am satisfied with the services, but there can be improvements. First a little bit about the facility itself. Max is a relatively large hospital with a large number of specialities and services. They have over 100 beds, 2 Operation Theatres and a 12 bed ICU (information courtesy Max Website); they also have a Emergency Response team.

By the looks of it, the hospital seems very modern and professionally managed. The staff at all desks are friendly and eager to help. It contains a 24 hour cafeteria and a 24 hour pharmacy (two things that I believe are a must for any decent hospital). It is located near Park Plaza hotel in Sushant Lok 1. Now I will talk about our experience.

Get a dose of culture in Gurgaon

Do you like art exhibitions, theatre, rock shows, musical performances, concerts, street plays, and good food? I at least enjoy the occasional outing along these lines, and one of the best (if not the only place) places in Gurgaon for this is called The Epicentre. It is nice little place located at the Apparel House in Sector 44.

One of the most obvious features of this place as soon as you enter it is the Amphitheater – which is where most of the events take place. It’s got plenty of seating space and a very nice backdrop of the Apparel house building. There are several events during a month that occur here regularly from Shenai Vadan to Guitar performances.

Grabbing a movie in style

Yesterday, I went to watch a movie with some friends. And since PVR had finally launched Gold Class in Gurgaon, I decided to give it a try to see what all the hoopla is about. Before I say anything else, let me conclude that I wasn’t disappointed. But, that is rushing it. Let me recount the experience first. The PVR Gold Class is only available in the brand new PVR at the swanky Ambi Mall (next to the Toll Plaza). If you haven’t been to Ambi Mall, well, that is a topic for a different post all together. I say swanky, because it has some of the best brands selling their wares in it (including BMW, by the way). Anyway, I digress.

Healthcare in Gurgaon – Artemis

The sad fact of life is that like it or not, you will have to visit a doctor some day. And usually, its for reasons that you would rather avoid. So, if you are living in Gurgaon, then what are your options? Of course, it also depends on how much you can afford to spend on healthcare. In this post, I will describe my experiences with one of the Healthcare services in Gurgaon.

Spas in Gurgaon

One would imagine that a Spa is a service that not too many people avail of in Gurgaon, and one would be dead wrong. In the past couple of years the number of Spas in and around Gurgaon have gone up considerably, with most of them pulling in a lot of crowds. Also, a Spa offers services for not only women, but men as well. There is nothing more rejuvenating than an hour of massage after a hectic week of work.
