Mom's cooking, together and Koyla

  1. Maa ke haath ka khana! Maaaaaaaaa....
  2. In my (comparitively) small 1 BHK flat, resources like space, water, bathrooms and storage capacity are a bit strained (there are so many people right now, that we're literally falling over each other!) but no one's complaining. We're just too happy to be together :-)
  3. Koyla. This place comes absolutely at the top of the list of my favourite restaurant for Hyderabadi cuisine. The kebabs are succulent and the meat is so tender. And the curries... aaaahhh! Even the naans live up to Koyla's reputation. For anyone who comes to Pune, a visit to Koyla is a must if you are a gourmet.

ha ha...Koyla...and the first thing that comes to my mind is not their Biriyani, but their fancy bathrooms :D Remember our visit???

p.s. I also remember how little they serve for the huge check we cut at the end!

Koyla. If I love to pay for the ambience, then will watch Mughale Azam next time :). Food is tasteless , not even the worst hyderabadi hotel will serve something like this,the waiters will simply cheat you. The one who served us - For 3 of us ( 2 non-veggies and 1 Veg. ) he offered his help in choosing the food.When the bill came, I was surpriced to find out that he ordered the 2 most expensive subzies for us. The veg subzi was 300 Rs and Nonveg one - 390 Rs. And, vat 12%, on a kaccha, handwritten bill. So, total was - 990 Rs. for food only. Not worth even for a single star. There are so many good hotels in Pune. So, Koyla is - Jagjit Singhs Gazals, Some bad food and cheating waiters. The food is not even worth of 1/3rd price. SO, The tagline is - PLEASE AVOID THIS PLACE. Chaitanya and Goodluck are a stones throw away!
