The day before....

the first post. you feel it should be something historical. a good sign, omen maybe. well, i never thought i would be interested in blogging. it amused me that so many people wanted the world to know what they thought. but is it really that? or is it more of a journal? if you want other people to read your blog then its a like coversation that you wanted to have but never got the oppportunity, and if you don't then its like a diary tha can be edited from anywhere and is till available for public viewing. technorati is tracking 60 million blogs!! that number boggles the mind. so, the day before i turn 27 i've decided to give up smoking. taking its place will be blogging. actually i dont know how long either of these good intentions will last, but i'm sure as hell gonna miss the smoking!

It's definitely not haute cuisine, but if you wanted a taste of the everyday gruel that most Kanandigas enjoy, it's the best place. Located on the road parallel to the national market road (can't recall the name now!), the name that most people know the restaurant by is practically invisible and is overshadowed by the prominently displayed ‘G M Boarding & Restaurant’. If you weren't looking for it you could mistake it for one more of the cheap and ubiquitous darshinis/fast food joints that populate the city and give it the go by. The walls are dirty and there is a large hall with three rows of 4-seater tables. You are encouraged to share tables with strangers, if you're group with less than four members, we ended up sharing ours with a constable taking his lunch break. Steel plates with rounded edges are already placed on the table. A server comes around with hot water whic...
