Birthday & Dasera Party..

First come first.. Aditya’s Birthday Party..

We were confused where to go. We have so many restaurants here, with different kind of tastes.

Birthday Cake

@ 11.30 am we decided we will go to The Village, Inorbit mall. We were willing to go there from many days but couldn’t make it. So first we decided this place.

@ 2.30 pm we decided Rajdhani because my office is in one part of Hyd and his is another and it would be difficult for me to go down there. So we decided Rajdhani, a middle place for both of us.

@5.30 pm rain struck Hyd. As main transport here is road, the traffic was just immovable. Effect was ‘change in venue’ again.

@7.30 pm Aditya still stuck in traffic and me being intelligent didn’t moved from office..hehehe..!! So finally, I mean, finally we decided De Thali. And this was final for two reasons a) it was near to our place and b) Aditya had reached nearby to that place

So basically it was a Rajasthani cuisine restaurant. Taste was awesome. As compared to Mumbai restaurants. In Mumbai there are lots of such restaurants but taste was good here. Here goes the menu

1. Buttermilk    
2. Varieties of Bhajji ( corn and moong)
3. 3 types of Chutneys ( Imli, Pudina, Coconut)
4. Puri, Pulka, Bhakri( with ghee and Jaggery)
5. 4 types of Subji ( Paneer, Mix Veg, Palak Dal Batti, Cauliflower
6. 2 Sweets ( Ras Malai, Choclate Halwa)
7. 1 sprouts subji
8. Kadi
9. Simple Daal
10. Steamed rice
11. Biryani
12. Daal khichadi ( with lots of ghee)

Please don’t ask for pics.. coz as soon as they served we did ‘toot pado’ on it.

Played with two babies and went to kitchen for pre-lunch preparation. So the menu was

Basically I had fun. It was like dream come true to celebrate festival with Aditya. And not to forget that our guests were also so nice and helping.
