The twist to the classy establishment is the introduction of Muay Thai or the thai kickboxing arena. The whole staff is trained to perfection, and aids to…

For families that often find conflict in choices impacting their decisions to dine out, for groups that kill individual wishes to give space to popular opinion, there’s a new place in the town, writes Harshili Malhotra. I am talking about the minority that is forced to eat a pizza when they really wish to dine Chinese.

This new place in the town, The Junction, fulfills these individual expectations by becoming the one stop for everything.

This restaurant will take you down the memory lane
Review by Harshili Malhotra “Neither the angels in heaven above, Nor the demons down under the sea, Can ever dissever my soul from the soul Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.” Annabel Lee being the fuel of my soul: the food that goes not to my stomach, but rests on my tongue.
