Weekend's' Ramayan

Last few weekends, I have almost been absent in the blog world. There are two reasons associated with it. Firstly, gmail has been blocked in office, secondly, I have shifted to a new place (thus, net connection was pain) and last but not the least, in laws visited us. Following all these factors, I have been on a Mumbai Darshan (Trip). Every weekend, we went to a new place in Mumbai. So here is the summary of all.
Though I have been to Nariman Point many a times, but this time it was best one. The reason being, it was not at all crowded and thus I went till the last tip and also, it was raining hard. I could see only water water everywhere. It was damn beautiful. From here, we went to the best eating place “Sardar”. I have mentioned the uniqueness of Sardar before as well. Aahh!!! It was so awesome lunch.
We went to BandStand and Versova Beach. I would have appreciated them much more, had they been a little clean. We couldn’t stand the smell at Versova Beach. I pity at authorities, since they are such beautiful places, but people don’t care to keep them clean. After this we went to eat food at Papa Pancho. I have always missed spicy and fresh food of dhaba, eversince I have come to Mumbai. Thanks to Papa Pancho, it actually was wonderful food. I also liked their concept. You just need to order your vegetable, with which they will serve dal, parantha and curd. So, it was a sort of Thali, with your favorite vegetable. The food was really spicy. The only thing bad was once I am in a restaurant, my hunger doubles. And their service was way too slow. Also, the sweet dish was not very tasty.
Since, my sister has got admission in the Law College, she came for her shopping. So, we went to Lower Parel, factory outlets, and Phoenix Mall. I did shopping for not only the sis, but for me, my brother and hubby. I did so much shopping after a long time. Felt so happy after that. After all, shopping and food are stress busters for me (I am sure it must be for most of gals :).
After 15097th planning, we again planned to visit Celini, in Hyatt. But once again, it was just a plan and we cancelled it. I wonder when I will finally go there. Celini, serves Italian food and the other joint which serves good Italian is Little Italy. So, there we go. Previously we had always been to Juhu branch; this time we planned to go to the Ghatkopar one. And I was a bit disappointed. The ambience was not as great as in Juhu and thus 50% of my mood was spoiled. We hold HSBC card and were suppose to get 10% discount on bill, but the manager had no clue about such offer and thus we paid whole bill. Next time I am not going there.
My brother will leave tomorrow, so now ends my family vacation. I will be back with the same routine. Hopefully, now I will be more regular with blogging.:)

P.S. – Thanks to Nidhi for helping me change the theme of my blog page.:)
