The Soup and Salad Cafe – interesting stuff

The Soup and Salad Cafe – interesting stuff

By Naren Ubi on May 8, 2010

I thought this is just another cafe/restaurant in town trying to make or present conventional food in a different platter – just like the stupid Dosa Calling. I was wrong. The moment I stepped in to their Adyar outlet, it was a good feeling to smell the great aroma of fresh food. Nothing obnoxious or [...]

Mumbai food junction – quick bucks in the name of Mumbai

Mumbai food junction – quick bucks in the name of Mumbai

By Naren Ubi on April 18, 2010

Place: Mumbai food Junction, Nandambakkam, Chennai Landmark: Next to MIOT Hospitals /diagonally opposite Chennai Trade Center (CTC). This is the first time when I had a sweet Vada Pav. It tasted good to me, but it’s not Mumbai-style; definitely not the one that sells for five or six rupees in Mumbai. The same goes for [...]

Rain clouds, and damned humans

Rain clouds, and damned humans

By Naren Ubi on November 18, 2009

How many times have you come across people complaining that it’s raining outside, and their plans are all spoiled, or it’s disgusting to get wet, or how dull & gloomy it’s outside? It’s quite sad that I’ve been hearing such comments since it started raining over here. I agree that the roads are a mess [...]

Umbrella beads..

Umbrella beads..

By Naren Ubi on November 7, 2009

It’s been raining, raining, raining…since yesterday morning. Looks like the rains will have non-stop fun in Chennai for another 12 hours. But, heck, I’m getting bored sitting at home, staring outside the window… So, I decided to colorize the otherwise grayish view outside the window.. (click the pics below to get a bigger view) Any [...]

ID restaurant: Maintaining high standards..

ID restaurant: Maintaining high standards..

By Naren Ubi on March 9, 2009

The next time you watch a movie at Satyam Cinemas, Chennai, don’t forget to try out the ID restaurant located in the first floor of the complex. At first sight, it looks like a high-standard pub, with the only alternating colors like white and metal. Step in, and the ecstatic aroma of hot crunchy vada, [...]

Google India’s Internet bus – on its way creating buzz

Google India’s Internet bus – on its way creating buzz

By Naren Ubi on February 4, 2009

In one of my earlier posts I was talking about the paperless receits initiative from TransactionTree. I was also wondering how and when this concept will reach the 1,018,057,389 Internet users. Well, on the flip side, I never thought about the remaining 5-billion people who do not have access to the Internet! Google India just [...]

Weird bars on a Christmas eve!

By Naren Ubi on December 25, 2008

I’ve been to this pub 10 Downing Street (10DS, T Nagar, Chennai) quite a lot of times, and yesterday, Christmas eve, there were a bunch of weirdos beside the entrance doors. They were actually doing a good job filtering people who were trying to get into the pub. Usually, I’m on business casuals, as I [...]

Listening to Slumdog Millionaire – Rahman’s musical treat

By Naren Ubi on December 15, 2008

After hearing about news that A R Rahman has won the Golden Globe nomination for Danny Boyle’s movie ‘Slumdog Millionaire‘, I wanted to get my hands on the music CD. However, before I could make the buy, I tried out some samples.  Oh boy! they are good, considering the usual Rahman phenomenon that you need [...]
