Here’s a bus stop with a laundrocart attached.

Unique isn’t it ? Happens only in India. You’ll find this dhobi cart virtually every day of the week in the Frazer Town area. In addition to a “shop front” on the main road, this man’s location is tailor made for him. It has a wide berth, a roof that protects him from the elements and plenty of “shelf space” for his clothes.

Richard’s Park…Simply Delightful

zeeshanshariff — Wed, 25 Jul 2007 15:25:47 +0000

They’ve completely revamped Richard’s park in Frazer Town (right down mosque road). They’ve added swings and a skating rink. It’s beautiful, shady and perfect if you want to go for a walk even in the afternoon, it isn’t so hot there at all.

Its also perfect if you want to sit there and read a book. There isn’t really too much noise there from the traffic. Little kids playing around, folks walking their dogs and people playing badminton .. its the perfect summer atmosphere. And it only costs Rs. 2 to get in. So go on and breathe some fresh air!

Review: Bombay Chowpaty Kulfi

zeeshanshariff — Tue, 24 Jul 2007 15:32:20 +0000

-submitted by Numaya-

Being from Bombay I was missing authentic Bombay kulfi here in Bangalore, The kulfis served in ice cream joints were just not the right kulfi. But Bombay Chowpaty Kulfi has kept unto its name. They serve 16 different flavours of kulfi and all are the best.

The Owner Mr. Ahmed is himself from Bombay as well as his staff & they have brought to Bangalore the authentic kulfi from Bombay. They manufacture it here taking care of hygiene as well as giving original taste without adding any artificial flavour. Seasonal fruit kulfis are only available during the season of particular fruit used. The kulfis are served with falooda ( vermicelli as known in Bangalore). Matka kulfi is served in small earthen pots unlike others who give in plastic pots. They even serve faloodas of different flavours.

Believe me this place is worth a try & i bet u’ll love the kulfis & falooda !!!!!

Review 2: Mangalore Pearl Restaurant

zeeshanshariff — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 18:13:24 +0000

-submitted by Saood Ahmed-

After quite a few claims by ‘Coastal’ and ‘Mangalorean’ restaurants in the city, this is one that actually lives up to its name!

Mangalore Pearl was a chance find and from there on, its the only Mangalorean place in Bangalore yet that I will recommend to anyone …

The ambiance isn’t the best in the world and it doesn’t sport any fancy decor but it is clean and nice and homely and that is all I am looking for!

Start with the Coccum Juice (Binda) and try to eat as much of the traditional food as you can … the Sheyyos and the Sannas and the Neer Dosas with the obvious Mutton curry. Also the Pork Bafat … that can’t be skipped! Sannas and Pork Bafat make the classic Mangy cuisine addictive

Overall it is a stunning place to go to food wise and you won’t regret it! I am not so much of a sea food freak so I haven’t really tried much of it though the prawns are quite nice … (see I get enough sea food at home … so I don’t bother with it outside!)

This place is very easy on your wallet and a meal for two with extra servings of coccum juice can easily be accommodated for under 350 rupees!
