compassvale 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2008 haha yeah naan there delicious or not? not bad lah...but actually mainly stuck to Thai/Jap/Continental food in the hotel.. prefer to be on the safe side... Indian food only try a couple of times, garlic naan is very nice, thali is nice also...very filling...alot of small bowls of different stuff tonight will be having *fresh rock lobster slow cooked in oven* and maybe fresh asparagus soup....yum yum.... last night was tom yum soup and lamp chops..hehehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patsy_sg 1 Report post Posted September 3, 2008 noooo you must try authentic indian food... if you're in bombay, go to the Kyber (spelling???) in delhi, go to the bukara in the sheraton hotel..the best tandori chicken and dahl ever ever ever!!!! just don't eat anything from the street Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
compassvale 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2008 yeah.... no street food, even *proper* restaurants along the road are risky as well. Sometimes it's not that the food is dirty, it's just that our digestive tract isn't used to their strain of microbes. stick to hotels is the safest. But me really not a fan of indian food, so just try their naan, roti, rice and curries......did not even try their lassi.... ok lah, it's an experience. But other than work, I would definitely not envision myself in this land. So since i was here for 6 weeks, might as well make the full use of it and visit the Taj since I would probably not come to India for social holiday. But I will miss things like, no need to do laundry, no need to do tidy the bed and make the room, just signing meals and drinks to the room and of cos need not drive myself to work and can sit behind and enjoy the hustle and bustle of the city traffic.....hehe will be back soon, to the welcome of CTE, ERP again.....lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

compassvale 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2008 skywolf: I've seen more mosquitoes in these few weeks than in my whole life....seriously even in the hotel car towards work in the morning, i can see at least 6-7 mossies flying around in the car.....and i will be busy killing them with my bare hands...lol.... Seems like the mossies here are not as fast as those back in Singapore....i could hardly killl singapore mossies with my bare hands Even Singapore mossies have a faster pace of life... hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
