TGI Friday is really cool!

My thoughts just before entering TGI Friday in Delhi: uh oh, just another pub. Same kinda cocktails , not so good food. But I was pleasantly surprised. being a Mumbaiite, Mondegar and Leopolds are the best you can get to sit and talk to friends over a couple of beers - something you really ca...Read more

Just about ''okey dokey''

I visited Subway's Delhi outlet some time back and found it quite good. But then I wasn't paying for the meal, it was a treat given by friends. I had an Italian BMT and a bit of the turkey S'wich and found it quite OK. Which is why a closer look at the rates when I visited the outlet at Bandr...Read more

Good network coverage

I have read a lot of 'BPL bashing' reviews here. But I guess that has been your experience. Here's mine: I have been using BPL mobile for the last two years and have always found it great and much better than Orange. Their Network coverage is very good. When I decided to opt for BPL Mobile...Read more

Veg pizzas much better

I have always had a not so good experience with Dominos and avoid ordering myself, but they're well spread out and conveniently located so when am with friends have always ended up ordering from Dominos. Domino's is primarily a takeaway joint - NOT a place you would enjoy going to. if you ord...Read more

One cannot sit on Cactus
Cactus - Vashi - Navi Mumbai

I agree with your points about the food. a friend and I ordered a plate of noodles and it was so spicy and quite expensive. And very little other than Thai that you can order. One thing we liked was that they give you a LOT of snacks with just one beera nd they gave us refills too freeof charge. ...That was quite nice. I haven't visited too many bars so I don't know if that's standard practice anyway keep writing great reviews! avina Read More

Great hangout but disappointing food
Barista Lavazza - Bannerghatta Road - Bangalore

hi sulakshna, :) I believe that there's always room for improvement and it's only by customers expressing opinions that outlets know where they are going wrong and can try to improve the service. I hang out at Barista almost once a week - different outlets all over the city - over last year... . So am a regular - i like the coffee but stay away from the food. Read More

Reviewed Prestige Pressure Cooker

It's been a lifesaver!

I used the smallest Prestige cooker when I lived by myself for a while. My friends and mom would look at it and go: Can you really cook in that? I'll bet you can't cook more than a potato! But it's served me really well over my months of cooking for myself. I have been able to whip up my dabb...Read more

Great hangout but disappointing food

Barista has been around for a while and everyone's raving about it. Sure why not, it's probably one of the best places to hang out - very chilled out atmosphere. Yo0u can even sit there alone and sip on your cup of coffee and catch up with your reading. and the coffee's not bad too :) I ha...Read more

Stay away from Subway!
Subway - Bandra Talao - Bandra West - Mumbai

Good review. I found the food really cold and clammy (expensive too!) . I can't believe that they would charge to heat your sandwich up fr you! this is done free at most outlets. luv Avina

When I bought it, it cost 145 bucks! quite expensive I found it really dry and 'cakey' and it feels awful on your lips. It's not transfer resist at all and goes of just ...Read more

Bulky but very sturdy and feature rich

To be honest, when I first got this model I was very skeptical about it's performance after being a regular Nokia user. But for the price at which I bought it - 2700 bucks, it scored way over a Motorola Talkabout which was quite expensive at 3000 bucks with limited features. After about 8 mon...Read more
