Barbecue Nation – a treat for your palate

Both my wife and I enjoy eating out a lot. So, yesterday, we decided to try out a place we had never heard of. It is called Barbecue Nation. Let me give you the conclusion first: we are definitely going to go back whenever we can, and keep going back. With that out of the way, let’s concentrate on our impressions of the place in detail. How to get there? Its not...

Restaurant Listings for Gurgaon

While I try to post reviews about restaurants that I visit, there is no way I can cover them all on this site. And till now I have not found too many great options available on the Internet as well.

We are expecting a baby and although the due date is quite far away, my wife has already stopped fitting in her jeans. So we went shopping for clothes for her to wear. Of course, she needed stuff which she can wear to office. Guess what? A million stores in Gurgaon, but hardly any choice available for maternity clothes that can be worn to office.

Punjab Grill at Ambience Mall

Aug 17

It seems that the only place we go to these days is Ambi mall. What can one do? The other places are way too crowded, and it is much easier to get here because of the highway. Although, I have to say that every time we go there it seems more crowded that before. Well, this time around, we had gone to watch Jaane Tu (finally) and decided to try out this new restaurant...
