Junkyard Visited ★
I’ve been really enjoying myself, lately. I watched Rang De… yesterday, went to Nehru Place today and saw that the people shouting “Laptop, Lenovo, IBM, Free CDs and CHAI” were doing their jobs better than ever..Nehru Place is indeed a Junkyard.. but an interesting one, with probably the cheapest dhaba food in the city. Rajinder Da Dhaba(Safdarjung), if you ever noticed is no less than a proper fast food joint with exorbitant prices, now. Having a lassi at NP for Rs.15 was a delight. The same thing at Green Park would have cost Rs.50 and a little guilt from my side to top it.
I(and my uncle) went there to buy laptop, and I noticed that the salesmen were not at all as helpful as I had thought they would be..It would have been helpful just by their knowing the difference between DDR & SD, but the Compaq and Lenovo guys alike, seemed to have no clue. Unfortunately, I did not have a camera to take a snap or two of that unique hub of computers I visited today.
So what did I think about the place? Really brilliant. There is lot of competition between even the smallest of PANWALAS for selling that bottle of mineral water a little cheaper. Everything said, the place does need to be revamped, and also needs to adopt a system like that followed by malls(Ansal, Metropolitan, etc) in Delhi, with better parking facilities. Though the one thing that I enjoyed the most truly, was making fun of those so-called geeks of NP on their faces at the knowledge of theirs, which was no more than my 4-year-old cousin.
Right now the starters, were CHAPATTIS and curry. The real dinner was at Chokola at Vasant Vihar, where there was a huge selection of exquisite items to choose from, all made from/of chocolate..I am not going to write a review on this one but it is worth a visit on a special day, maybe. If you like my tastes, start with Cappuccino.
Phew…I’ve been out for a while today,
Time to get back home and sleep
Nehru Place is not the place to do some serious shoppe.
Most of the things that you see around are faked or tampered(there are exceptions like the HP, LG exclusive shops)
I think otherwise.
