Ok, here is what I learnt today - my wifey is allergic to fan and my daughter needs light to sleep. And when I say light, she ain;t satisfied with a bed light, she wants is the bright fluorescent lamp glowing at 220 volts :-(
And for me :-( like any one cares now - can't sleep without fan and need the room to be pitch dark!!!
Can't crib, just need to take it in stride ;-(
Tucked @ 32/3, Crescent Road, High Grounds, Off Kumara Krupa Road, Studio kabab is part of Goldfinch Hotel. The hotel offers valet parking. You can call them 41291300 to make advance booking.
We had been to Kabab studio as a part of a birthday bash celebration of a colleague.We opted the kunch buffet. For kabab-loving foodies, the Kabab Studio at Goldfinch is the last stop. It offers five varieties of kababs every day, both in the vegetarian and the non-vegetarian sections. In main course you are served two tawa items (dry sabzis) along with one paneer dish, one non-vegetarian kurma and a biriyani. I am given to believe that the menu changes everyday to give the customer a wide choice.
The ambience is pretty good, with a good view of the race course. The alu-tikki chat masala is something that i relished and had a couple of plates though i was quite full. Beware walk in to studio kabab only when you are in a mood to eat kabab's.
The buffet costs Rs - 320/- and they offer you a 10 % off if told before hand about corporate discount.
I just did some quick research and planned to buy wifey a Honda Activa for our anniversary. She used to have a kinetic honda and she may just love it . Also i may have hit a bullseye coz, dad also tried his hand on the bike during test drive and seemed to love it. And as far me, i can use that bike when Bangalore is bright and sunny.
After a lot of speculation and researching, we decided to replace our old ancestral TV.It was from Solidaier a german company and its DOB was 1983. I think Mom got the TV to watch India take the World cup.
Finally we zeroed on the 40 inch LCD TV, after hours of convincing & fighting with Mom. Dad was already excited when i told him that we should look at the latest models and stay in tune with technology rather than picking something that was on a verge of being obsolete.
And what a day we picked for delivery ;-) My Inlaws were coming home with my wife and kid for a couple of days for some important traditional function and Sony India decided to call that day as the new DOB for my Bravia and the drama unfolded
The delivery guy called me up @ 5.30 and told me he would be coming in 30 mins and asked for instructions and landmarks.But alas!! he failed to estimate the bangalore traffic and landed 2 hrs late. At 7.30 , I signed the delivery order and received the TV. It was Huge and i had mixed reactions, Happy and excited at its size, but disappointed that no service man would be available for a week.I decided to unpack the beauty, but i needed help because of its size. I made quick calls to friends to check who was free to help me, but i did not get any success. So i waited for Dad to come by. Later on we slowly unpacked the black beauty and placed it on the TV stand.After that i just informed wifey to do pooja( Yes, we do that for anything new we buy :-) and i am proud of it ), and just she began that power went and we were in darkness for an hour increasing our excitement. Finally all's well that end's well. Power was back and now It looks awesome. Just pushed in a DVD and tested. Watching movies is real pleasure as it gives you the feel that you are in a theatre.
This model being Full HD, i connected my DVD player via HDMI and bingo, the resolution blew up t0 1080i instantly and beautifully. I am still on its features. Will post more review later
Some of its features include - Bravia 2.0 Engine, Full HD @ 1080 , 24 True Cinema which supports Blu-ray disc,Intelligent picture, MPEG noise reduction, Bravia Sync, S-Force surround sound, Light ambient sensor, PIP, PAP, Theatre mode and power reduction.
