SNEEK PEEK: JAMJAR DINER, MUMBAI


I'm grooving to a famous Beatles song, the smell of freshly made waffles teasing me endlessly. Hop, skip and jump to the Jukebox and a new melody replaces the old one. It feels like nothing can go wrong at JamJar Diner.


The first time I ever went there, I went as a journalist for my magazine. Standing outside, looking around at the very familiar road I used to come everyday to for my internship, I almost blink and miss this beauty. Well not really, since its bright blue exterior mystically beckons you to step in!

And since then, every single person I’ve met knows the tales of the small place with the madhouse interiors. Say hello to topsy-turvy shelves, stained glass booths, old school curtains and the fascinating oddities thrown into the mix. As you step into Jamjar Diner, you almost expect your grandmother to come sauntering out from the kitchen, a plate of freshly cooked food in her hands. 
 

Craving for hearty breakfasts on Sunday mornings with a side dose of classic songs? Head on over if you're ever in the Versova side of Mumbai!

If you want to read more about this eclectic little place, I've done a whole article in the June issue of The Ideal Home and Garden Magazine! Interior tips and all...

FOR ONE | BANANA NUTELLA PANCAKES

*Ahem* Disclaimer: I am not addicted to Nutella. Yes, i may use it in all my recipes! And well…yes i do talk about it almost every other day. And i do really really like it. I still believe i am not addicted. So, there! I love recipes that yield one serving. Living on my own has enlightened me about the fact that there is no shame in asking the price of a single tomato or a few onions. And while all the recipes online come with family sized portions, i love when i can figure out the correct proportions to satisfy my lonesome hungry tummy.  I was in food heaven when i had tried these pancakes in Thailand. Did i mention I'd eat this every day? And thus, on a bored and sunny day, when i had not much to do but give my cat company, i decided to revisit the good ol' vacation days!  First attempt: Pancake utter fail. (Note: Never ever try and make pancakes on a burning hot stove. Just don't.) Second attempt: Hold on till i go devour these! ( Thanks to mother...

LOVING A NEW CITY #01

FIND FRIENDS.  Moving to a new city is substantially less scary when you have a friend along. Obviously, it does not take away the frustrating running around, but it does make things a whole lot easier. You'd want a friend when a broker calls you at a random hour to a random location, you'd need someone when your house floods because someone left the tap on and you'd especially need someone when you just want to laugh at a funny-annoying situation. It could be that one friend that moves in with you, or just someone you met at work..try and keep people closer when you're in a new city. I moved to Bombay along with a lot of other students from my batch. With everyone as lost as i was, it was easier to navigate things. I could not imagine getting used to the city on my own. I'd probably slip down the station stairs and no one would notice. (a long running inside joke with my first friend in Bombay!). So thank you those few first friends in Bombay and in Del...

A SILENT SCREAM

It's not easy to talk about something you aren't even sure exists. It's also not easy to talk about something that makes you different from others and in so many ways almost identical to them.  Sweaty palms, that sinking feeling in your heart, the panic that rises in your stomach and the fear that things will always go wrong no matter what. There isn't one name to this problem. I'm not really beating about the bush, nor am i wanting to name it outright. I've been through depression before. It could be the same this time, or completely different. i can't snap out of it. No matter how hard i try and no matter how many times i tell myself its going to be okay. It's like a living being that sits in my stomach and waits and waits.  I panic. I scream in my head sometimes and i just want to sit in absolute silence on most days.  I cope through it through food and through long spells of couch therapy. It's not really coping i guess…more li...
