I was there at the Tea Center this evening and it was a tad better than it's older version (before renovation) though the portions of food were a bit less than before!!! Still value for money, I would say!!! The teas are still the best I have had in any place in Mumbai.

About the culture shock, it is but natural since you may not have been accustomed to the ways of this country and it's people, their way of life and living in conditions that are totally different from where you may have been or come from. I does take some time to get used to the way people behave over here compared to what you may have experienced in other places. So just give yourself some time to get adjusted and I am sure you will be fine soon. If you need any more information you may send a personal message to me.

Cheers,
Aadil.

Try visiting the Old Town Hall opposite the Horniman Circle Gardens at Fort to have a look at the rare manuscript of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy as well as a few other old and rare books from the Asiatic Society of Mumbai's collection which usually remains hidden in a bank vault and is rarely seen by anyone!!! The mini exhibition is on till the 4th of November at the Town Hall State Library building.

Cheers,
Aadil.
