The day before yesterday I went to Khanna Market (which is not very far from Khan Market that, unlike Khanna, targets rich customers) to eat at a south Indian restaurant. I had been hearing about this restaurant for long. Several people had sworn that the eatery serves excellent south Indian food at reasonable prices. (“AC…

At Rohtang Pass, Himanchal Pradesh, India
Previous post: A trip to Manali, India. Not many options were available to us at the taxi stand. Manali is a small town, every taxi driver appeared to have known the other fairly well.

New Delhi of Old India
It was not surprising when the company that build $3 billion terminal at New Delhi’s international airport recently decided postpone the beginning of the operation of the landmark building by at least two weeks because of lack of “confidence”.
