RAJ Restaurant in Sector 15, Gurgaon

Sunday, August 20th, 2006

Just near to my residence, we have this restaurant and the bad thing is that I had never tried the food of this particular restaurant. Yesterday, my wife, mom and sis called me up and that the renovation work is going on in the kitchen, so we need the get the food from outside. I don’t like outside food that much but…..

So the food came from this particular restaurant and after taking the first bite of that softy and tasty stuffed Nan with the delicious Dal Makhni… aahhhh, it was so good that I had 2 Nan and 3 missi roti with that. The taste was more or less same that I had in Madhuban Restaurant at PVR Saket. Malai kofta and Chilli paneer was also good.

Do try a meal over there and it’s worth it. If you are a family then avoid going there in late night hours, better you get the food packed over there and have it somewhere else.

Sohna Complex …. You need to improve a lot baby

Sohna Complex …. You need to improve a lot baby….

This was the first time when I visited a motel in Haryana and specially a property developed by Haryana Tourism.

Gurgaon is called the city of Guru Dronacharya (of Mahabharata) and I often hear that Gurgaon was known as “Guru Gram” in past days. Being such a great corporate city and shopping destination, Gurgaon lag behind is tourism, and not only Gurgaon, the whole of Haryana I would say. I visited the Sohna Complex for the first time since my colleagues said that the property has been developed at the time of Tau Devi Lal and the place is nice and calming. Sohna complex is situated on the Sohna Tauru road on the best location one can imagine, its on the hillside from you can actually see the Gurgaon city. It was made at a time when Sohna was possibly a very small village. Now when you visit there, the gardens are not maintained from the last one year. The building has not been painted since long, Sohna, which happened to be a small village has now reached the boundaries of this motel, food quality is bad and best of all, there are bout 20 – 25 Lizards in the Dining Area…. Yukkkk.

Looking for a reliable modular kitchen manufacturer in Gurgaon

Saturday, August 19th, 2006

My house is undergoing renovation and I am desperately looking for a modular kitchen in provider in Gurgaon. I though of visiting Sapna interiors near sector 14 but the shop seem to be shifted somewhere else ….. :( (at least they should have left a board for their previous customer). Then I tried the DLF Galleria market in DLF Qutub Enclave Phase 4 and found a shop called “Royal Kitchen” just in front of the DLF City Club. The guy has a small showroom but good material kept over there. But as an India and especially a Baniya, I would really prefer to see some more variety of it; after all if I am spending a lakh of rupees on the kitchen, then I would take the stuff “thok baja ke”. Is there anybody who can tell me a good vendor of modular kitchen in or near Gurgaon and Delhi ???

Aapno Rajasthan : Delicious Food

Thursday, August 10th, 2006

I have spent most of my life in Rajasthan, me and my family shifted to Haryana because of my fathers business. Haryana has always proved to be a better place than Rajasthan in all aspects but not in case of the cuisines.

Reliance Petrol pumps in Rajasthan

Thursday, August 10th, 2006

I have been traveling frequently to Rajasthan because of my business trips, income tax assessments, handicrafts, Delicious Rajasthani cuisines and especially, my family and in laws. On the way, there are approx 10 Reliance petrol pumps out of which 5 have the A1 Plaza.

On the way to Rajasthan 4 Reliance Pumps are not operational. I have noticed that the price of fuel at these petrol pumps is 2 – 3 Rs more than the others in Rajasthan. Also as per the owners of these pumps, Reliance is exporting most of the fuel because of profits. So the operational petrol pumps I think will not last for long if it goes like that.

But I should say that whether these petrol pumps close down or not, but the A1 food Plaza should remain operational. Clean washrooms, AC room, good and clean food and host wishing Namaste as you reach, what else does a traveler needs???

Who says that having knowledge is of no use….???

I had big plans when I passed out my Engineering, but I never got a chance in any of the companies who are pioneers in making Machines, I and many of my colleagues who were genius of mechanical Engineering waited for companies like Kirloskar, Mahindra, TATA and many others for campus selection, but they never came for an interview ….

I did my MBA in Family Managed Business from SPJIMR, Mumbai, I got a chance to work with my dad in expanding our business, but that didn’t last for long…

I researched on making high quality poultry feed from crushed animal bones for poultry market in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, got a success in that but that also failed because of my personal problems….

Then I studies hard for Pork and Beef Meat Processing in India. I had been to many agricultural universities for it. But that also failed because of many technical as well as financial discrepancies in the project and the Indian animal husbandry market….

Now I have an opportunity to use all of these skills…..

So, I hope for the best in the near future and I wish that my subordinates would help me in achieving in what I always wanted.
