Going to Bandra

skinnylizard · Apr 25th, 2006, 13:46

Yes i know its a crime but someone has to do it.

Taj Lands End for a meeting. around 3.30. for bout 30-40mins.

im meeting someone after at around 5.30-6.

any ideas what to do in the middle for 2 hours? and what to do after i meet the person?

my thoughts were -

sit at the bar and grab a beer?

well lets start by saying that ur going to the worst institution of the most illustrious house of our Indian Hospitality sector............atleast the worst Taj or 5 * hotel that u can find in Mumbai is Taj lands End....
dont go there......rather goto Thai Ban on Pali hill road or Just around the corner on the same road.

i mean do go there for ur meeting but limit ur visit to that place for meeting only

skinnylizard · Apr 25th, 2006, 13:57

i have a meeting with someone who is staying at the Taj. i dont think he will appreciate it if i tell him his choice of residence sucks.

my problem -

meeting should be over in bout 30 mins odd i think.

person im meeting after can only make it to Bandra by 5.30 or 6

im driving.

so ill have two hours to kill. and then i have to find something else to do all over again.

the alternative is consumption of alcohol or coming back to work (which i wouldnt mind except everyone is off for a seminar after 2.30 so ill be by myself)

oh i just remembered Pot Pouri on the same road is also nice place to hang around

Vibhu Jindal · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:00

find a crossroad or roam around in Shoppers stop in Bandra ????

skinnylizard · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:00

allright.

one more thing.

im wooing this lady. she isnt from Bombay. i need some place nice. hip. how far is Zenzi? i remember going there but i was quite toasted so i cant recall.

Vibhu Jindal · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:07

sorry mate dont know the way to it, except its address that i just got from the net search

skinnylizard · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:08

allright Bro. there has to be atleast one place thats hip in Bandra right? come on. hook me up.

skinnylizard · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:11

is there a bookstore around?

edit: there is supposed to be a Shoppers Stop at Bandra and they have a Crosswords. any idea how big this is?

do they have Valet?

Edit : well there is a Crosswords at Turner road which i think isnt too far (near the Tavaa place)

i can def kill an hour and a half at the book store.

Vibhu Jindal · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:32

yup the turner road book store is pretty close and good too but the Shoppers stop isnt much and is very cramped i wouldnt go there if given a choice but as it is in ur case .........u might have to kill time there.....

am pretty sure that ull find a place for urself while on road as Bandra is full of those kind of places

skinnylizard · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:33

Vibhu

mate, how do i get there from Lands End?

i mean the one on Turner Road. im guessing thats large enough to kill bout an hour and a half.

Vibhu Jindal · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:54

now this is a tricky question .........telling u the way online will be impossible but take for granted that traffic would be killing atleast 45 mins while u ask ur way out

skinnylizard · Apr 25th, 2006, 14:55

i thought Turner road was a hop skip and a jump from Lands end?

Vibhu Jindal · Apr 25th, 2006, 15:05
