PUB n nt a Disco HUB

My first day at Bangalore,22nd feb, Sunday. We started right in the morning on work. What work!!! QQuest’09 marketing. We visited S, R’s friend at school. We tried our best with futile efforts.

After lunch out to N’s college a cute green campus but is a lil ruined with lack of maintenance.


Here comes the one. We then went to Garuda Mall supposed to be one of the very big and popular malls in Bangalore. We were window shopping floor by floor. After all that’s all we could do in addition to wondering what makes these things so beautiful. Was just recalling Paruthi Veeran Movie's dialogue "Kazu iruntha Kaka kuda color ayidum"( If there is money even a crow ll be colorful).

We planned to visit the scary house. Even after heavy coercion N stayed back. I went alone into the scar(less)y house. Just a minimally illuminated house with 2-3 ghost masked men trying to scare me.

Then in the 3rd floor we came across a PUB. N mistook it for a Disco Hub. On his compulsion we went into it. Actually I was dubious, as he left us without any entry fee but I just believed the city guy. We went in. To our annoyance there was no one dancing but a few people with varied shaped bottles sitting in a minimally illuminated place akin the scary house.

I urged N to better leave the place before it hurts our wallets. N was reluctant of being mocked or something. So we decided to have something that is the cheapest available thing there. So we ordered for a beer bottle which is priced INR 150/-.

The server served it in 2 glasses and it tasted like hell. So I decided to order something to moderate the chafe it created with something. So we ordered chilly chicken which again is the cheapest (another 150). But it was far better than the beer. Just then we found out the MRP in the bottle is INR 75/-.

Regretting our decision we finished every last drop of both and left with INR 310/- less in my wallet. N sworn that he ll never again step into a PUB. With too much remorse on spending on nothing we went back home where we are again redirected to a marriage reception. Anyway we had great dinner at Hotel Capitol.
