In one of the 287 rooms, there was a bride getting ready for her wedding at the hotel that evening. The guests must have been recovering from the hangover of celebrations the evening before. Some were strolling around the spacious, vibrant lobby while some must have opted to go for recreational activities near the hotel. Even as ladies at the salon must be adorning the bride in loveliest of colours, wedding organizers were busy embellishing the lawns in pink and golden hues. We couldn’t help but sit and take a while to admire the venue being emblazoned like a new bride. Reflecting the spirit of its idyllic neighborhood, Surajkund, the…

Zerruco by Zilli opened its doors way back in 2013 and is now all set to undergo renovation next month. There will be a dramatic change in interiors, making it more striking for city’s…

And second, by becoming a part of the very small group of…

Often we come across something that we’ve known for long enough to not question its existence but haven’t had a firsthand experience of it. And when offered an opportunity to live that experience, seldom do we say no. The aforementioned delineates the ‘how’ of my experience at Lord of the Drinks, Nehru Place which witnessed its opening last week with few launch parties and a press meet. The name is not new for me or for anyone living in the national capital region. New Delhi has seen a drastic increase in the number of socio-hubs, from cafes to restro bars and lounges. To establish an identity and sustain its presence…

Aren’t impromptu plans the best? Abhinav and I just came back from an impromptu weekend stay at Radisson Blu Hotel Dwarka. The 217-room property is located in the heart of Dwarka, very close to the metro station.

For food lovers, there’s also Rice (Oriental restaurant), Dvar (Indian), Zeppelin (contemporary lounge bar), and Atrium (pastry & confectionery store). This morning we…
