New Year with My Sista!

On 31st December afternoon, post work (I know working on 31st December very blah!!!) But pre- partying with my sister from another mother :P was going to be fun! Very intense talks about people :P, happening in the surrounding etc. needed a place as hoopla as us!!! So we decided to go to the new little European place called 'Terttulia' in Shivaji Park. 

A beautiful cozy place with such a great ambience, food and drinks we needed in this area! The decor is one of the best restaurant decor i have seen! Cute Chandeliers, vintage chairs and tables all the works. Plus it has a bar where you can sit and have a nice chat with the bartender if you can't get a table. Our drink of the evening was their special Sunday Sangria. Its one of the best sangrias you can ever taste. It is a must have! If you are chocoholic, please try their MUD CAKE!!! Yum is a understatement for the divine feeling you get after eating the cake!!!

Timings: 9 AM to 1 AM

Location: The lane before Open House on Veer Savarkar Marg

Cost: Rs.1400 for two people (approx.) Cash and Cards accepted

Kalaghoda 2015

Finally got the day off that was needed! But also on the luckily on the first day of the Kalaghoda festival. I would say in the many of the visits we generally make, the first visit should always be alone. All the time needed to walk through the fest you can get. Its like getting the whole feel of the place. And after you there, do you feel the vibe in the air which says creativity art and fun! 
So today on the day one of Kalaghoda 2015, i walked around the entire festival, bought a bag which was made out jeans! not just denim but jeans! In the main chowk of Kalaghoda opposite the Sasson library or which is otherwise the parking area right outside the Jehangir Art Gallery, is a stall which was selling bags, diaries etc made up of old used jeans! All types of jeans were used! They are calling this entire setup as 'Bum Bags'. It is called as the denim project by a Bangalore based NGO ' A hundred hands'. They make these recycled products to provide employment to the needy. Their Stall No is 62 NGO Section. It's must visit and buy also!
This is the bag i got for Rs 500.

Also, there is the Heritage Bus Tour which takes people around the famous spots like CST, Taj, Marine Drive etc. Its free! And only available on the weekends at 4.30 and 5.30 pm. The passes are available from 2 pm to 2.30 pm at the help desk. Try and get the passes for seats 1 - 30 as they are the upper open deck seats. Here are some photos i took from the Bus Tour
