The Northern Diary

Day 1 , reached Delhi late night , stuffed myself with this hauntingly yummy 'strawberry tart'. This place is in GK II, E-block. I don't remember the name of the restaurant, I was exhausted by the time I reached Delhi. They also serve  yummy ice-cream, I tried a little-bit from my friend.

Day-2, landed in Chandigarh at around 11.30 am & immediately headed towards Baddi to source fabrics from a well-known mill -Vardhman. On the way I saw this PINK-grey auto ( good sense of color ;) , popularly known as 'tuk-tuk' over there. 

On the way back from the mill to the hotel located at Chandigarh-Shimla highway. Thats Radhika , a friend & colleague lost in the nature outside .

Touching the borders of the different states ( himachal pradesh, punjab, haryana & chandigarh )

Chandigarh - Shimla highway.

The Candy-man, @ Chandigarh Sector 17 market.

Radhika's vintage saga, a fabulous pick-up from the sec.-17 market.

Traditional hand-done Phulkari embroidered  fabric picked up from the same market.

Day-3, Chandigarh - Ambala highway, Car broke down :(

 Yes , Spring is here !  Do you get the feel of ZARA s's 11 collection when you see this pic? Or UCB s's 11 ??? Color-Blocking is a major trend for coming summer. 

Day 4, went to GK I , M-block market to have yummy 'MOMOS' from Cafe Brown Sugar. Do try the wheat momos if you are a health freak. This adorable dog caught my attention while I was enjoying the Brunch at the cafe.

Street-fashion, Sarojini market, Delhi

 And finally, the most awaited part of the entire trip.This is the famous 'PARANTHA Wali GALI' in Delhi. All the foodies & parantha lovers SHOULD go and taste the NIMBU parantha....SLURPPPP !!!! I will stop here ....won't write any further....OK.  Now my mouth is watering....All thanks to Maali...for treating us with the most authentic & heavenly paranthas of the world.


p.s.  Parantha = stuffed Indian bread ( as defined by a foodie, a cook & a good friend -Darla )

From My Holiday Diary


























& the days at the ANAND jungle resort , Lansdowne (literally a jungle, with limited but basic facilities, rarely any network for cell phones). Covered with fine green pine trees  & untouched  by commercialism, the Garhwal Hills is a good destination to unwind your mind & soul. As told by a local villager, during spring, the ranges are covered with a beautiful blanket of wild/herbal flowers. Butterflies ranging from 5" - 10" are common in the month of March-April.









My holiday ended with excessive shopping. During the SALE season, my wallet seems too heavy & uncontrollable . Will post pics of the shopping items soon  :)
Happy New Year to all .
Love- poppins
