I assure you this is not a new language I’m making one learn. Though, the pronunciation has got my goat as much as the grape that almost went down my wind pipe in the quest to get it right. It’s a quirk, I tell you. After all, one can never really digest a good meal…

Locked & Loaded
I find myself in familiar territory in the lanes of Bandra and am taken to this quaint little dessert bistro- Loaded, an amalgamation of an eclectic mix of a variety of things, thanks to the ever imaginative thoughts of its creator and owner Tripti Singh- an affable and almost instantly loveable soul.

The Legend of the duck
I admit- this experience has got to be one for the books, for a multitude of reasons.

My first Birdcage Threesome
Wicked thoughts scurrying thy mind? I assure you of nothing scandalous, I plan on keeping this post PG rated for my younger followers (though I assure you some of them could teach you and I a thing or two.) Happy to be back in Mumbai once again and excited to know I’m meeting guests who…
