AURANGABAD
BABA PETROL PUMP - Ideally, I should be writing about the
iconic Bibi Ka Maqbara- a replica of Taj Majal Mahal built by Aurangazeb in
Aurangabad. But I feel more connected to this petrol pump which use to be the
final stop before out station buses drive out of city limits. 15-20 mins long
halt at Baba Petrol pump meant, any passengers skipping their bus at the
earlier stops could board it here. I am not sure if this stop still commands
the same importance or have the city limits exceeded over years?
BOMBAY
BIRD WATCHING- An unexpected
routine to catch up in a city like Bombay. Never did I think, I would go on a
Bird watching trail here. Thanks to our all time favorite Uncle & Aunty [
Ganesh Mama & Bhanu Aunty we call them].
They took me & my sis- not once but twice to experience it. Till
date those have been the only 2 Bird watching walks I have had. Can't forget
the peanut butter sandwich that accompanied us though the trail.
CHENNAI
BOMBAY HALWA HOUSE/ BOMBAY FASHION
It is the very Chennai
city which houses a restaurant, by name Bombay Halwa House. Right at the end of
the street - we have a apparel house by name Bombay Fashion. You can find more
Bombays as you walk along the streets of Chennai. There is a "Bombay Chaat" - as the
name suggests- they serve you everything from
Sev Puri to Pav Bhaji.
Interesting. Two questions. Any reason for stopping in that petrol bunk for 20 minutes? Where in Chennai this Bombay Halwa House located? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteNow I want to know what kinds of birds you saw! :)

ReplyDeleteBuses wudnt stop inside the petrol pump- there was travels office opposite the petrol pump.
Petrol pump was familiar landmark for commuters to identify the travels.
