The weekend that was

Last weekend was hectic. In a good way. No, it wasn't about going somewhere or doing any errands. It was basically about eating! Kau was down and he had insisted about a food tour. So sat morning James and I were with him for the Mojo brunch - english breakfast with beer. Then we went shopping for second hand books. I picked up a couple of Steinbecks - 'Grapes of wrath' and 'East of Eden', the x-files handbook and a few old issues of rolling stone. I dunno how I do this...can't come out of a book or a music store empty handed! Anyways, since we wanted to see the cricket match and eat biriyani too, we headed to Hyd Mahal (next to Magazines on Church Street). While the biriyani was ok, the kebabs weren't that great. So not going back there.

Headed back home then where James gave me a load of comics (Frank Miller, Alan Moore etc etc) to read on my laptop (with a cbr reader). Its quite good. Not like reading a book on the laptop.

Evening. We headed out to Arabian Savoury (on Coles road) where shawarmas were wolfed down. The coolest thing with the place is the name of the juices on offer. There is no where else you can drink a Rolex, London, Internet, Computer etc. :) Then we were off to a friend's cousin's place for a few drinks where Kau told us his gossip about the latest in bollywood. If its true, its quite weird! Back to my place and we had some Finlandia, Kahlua and some Baileys. Nice.

Woke up late in the morning and after breakfast we headed to Puntu's house for lunch. His mom had made some nice shorshe-eelish (Hilsa), which Kau and I finished without any prodding. After that was the kheer-kodom. Nice.

Kau insisted that he wanted some icecream, and we went to Corner House for some. Couldn't finish mine. Was too full. But we headed next door to Indi Joe's and downed Margaritas quickly before we had to drop him off to the airport. Came back home and crashed. Was just too tired.

So was a good weekend. Burp!
