My own autobiography that I'm working on which is based in Mumbai will probably be named "the glycerin diaries" due to the crap they sell as bottled beer here.

I have contempt for the field of psychiatry.

Nice 13 hours ago
The Westminster Alwarpet | 3 reviews
This is poolside and the ambiance is very sanitized. They do good vodka martinis. Fairly well stocked bar.
A good refuge of sanitized sanity in this chaotic repressed city. Lots of westerners.
Food menu is insanely prized though. Rs.795 for plate of Vada? Lol. C'est la vie. -

Good Biryani yesterday
Buhari Hotel Ashok Nagar | 6 reviews
I liked the Biryani here though the chicken wasn't fully cooked or fresh. Pretty good flavor.
However it is very crowded and I got seated across a guy who ate his Biryani with his fingers. -

It's alright 2 days ago
Saravana Bhavan K.K.Nagar | 8 reviews
I fail to grasp the appeal of this place. It was highly recommended to me by so many people around here and when I went there it was just a regular restaurant serving vegetarian south Indian food, pav bhaji, punjabi & the like.
They give you a paper, which is to be used as a tablecloth, that lists all their locations on it before presenting the menu. It's great that they are doing well, but the menu should take precedence.
Service is good and very prompt. It's my own problem that my Tamil is very rusty.
The coffee is pretty good.

There used to be a nice bar called illusion where I would drink and then play pool but they changed it to "all spice" which was also acceptable but more family and fine dining oriented, but now it's some boring Indian fine dining restaurant.
The gokarts suck too.
Bowling also sucks.
The swimming pool is strictly okay but you need to be a member or go with one.

Good food May 02, 2012
Oxy Cafe Matunga (W) | 6 reviews
The Spaghetti Bolognese chicken was perfect. As was Alu gobi cheese Paratha.
They got the coffee right as well.
Ambiance = functional.
Service is friendly and prompt.
No booze.
They shut early I got in just in time for last order, 10:30PM. They claim to open at 10AM. The food is great and it's probably popular and packed in the day time, not a place to hangout at but eat good food. -
