you have to have a drink on the outdoor deck in the evening, amazing place. This is right on top of the hotel and the whole city is spread out at your feet

NH-8, Main Road , Sector 15-II , Gurgaon
very interesting place, worth a visit if you are in that part of town. The restaurant feels al fresco, except it is enclosed in a mall. Food is pretty good, quick service, great place for a business lunch.

11:45 pm, weekend night, out on the road, need to eat.....well Impy' is it......almost everything on the menu tastes good in the middle of the night. Never tried it when the sun is up though.....

great place to host a birthday party for toddlers, messy but fun after all the painting and crafts.

don't plan on having a long leisurely meal here, though. The chairs are made of granite blocks, literally.

want to go to 13th floor, but tired of the conversation drowning noise, then you might want to check out Vayu. Cool outdoor lounge, with OK music, they charge an entry cover on weekend nights. There are a couple of restaurants attached to the place, think it is memories of china and masala bay- spice something

Audio & Video Shop
48, KFC Building , Church Street , Bangalore
Where do you go on a Sat eve, if you feel like watching "Banlieue 13", "Y tu mama tambien", "Nine Queens" or "Motorcycle Diaries" or any other independent / foreign flick. Habitat is the place, what started eons ago as the go to place for that hard to get import music has spread its wings into video rentals. The really awesome part is that they stock only original dvd's. Tad expensive at Rs.100 to Rs.80 per rental, but worth every bit.

#4 Palace Cross Road 1st Main Chakravarthi Layout , Vasanth Nagar , Bangalore
don't miss the karaoke nights here, nice outdoor seating area. Call ahead to reserve a table, place gets crowded very fast

Movers & Packers
107, A Wing, 1st Floor, Carlton Tower , HAL Airport Road , Bangalore
Pretty decent service and response time. Need to be more forthcoming and clear with the customer about the process upfront (i.e things like customs clearance, associated charges etc. ) than raise them up incrementally

Furniture , Tailor
16/2 New No:43 Satyanarayana Temple Street , Ulsoor , Bangalore
Have used them for curtains, furnishings, covers etc. They come home and take all the measurements, they are also hooked into all the good fabric stores in town. So, all you need to do is go to one of these stores select the fabric you like and they take care of the rest, including picking up the fabric from the store and then coming home and mounting the curtains. Ask for Harish, you will have to chase him a bit though

Nightclub
The Leela Palace, 23, Kodihalli , HAL Airport Road , Bangalore
Well Laila had her birthday here, so this place is the tops. Watch out for the platinum section though, it is not what it is made out to be

Doctor
253, 4th Cross, 4th Main , HAL 3rd Stage , Bangalore
Good pediatrician, recommend him. He has always been accessible when ever we needed him, either in person or on the phone. Also can decipher US medical records and maintain the vaccination schedule which was a big question for us when we moved back.

Library
525, 16th Main Road , Koramangala 3rd Block , Bangalore

This is the perfect answer for those weekend's, when you want to get the children out and you don't want to do an other round of the malls, movies, Mc'D's. They have a well stocked children's library, and you can keep the books for as long as you wish.

They also conduct a impressive range of group activities on the weekends, which include storytelling, clay modeling, painting, puppetry's classes. Most of these activities tend to be topical for example for the Ganesh festival my three year old got to paint his own Ganesha and take it home.

Book Store
B-428 L-1 The Leela Galleria , HAL Airport Road , Bangalore

the phrase which comes to mind is "mile wide, inch deep" if current best sellers is what you are after then this is the place. The coffee shop is nice.

The really cool part of this place is the children's area, where you can introduce your child to the pleasures of reading. They also have storytelling and other activities for children on the weekends. Call ahead and check, it does tend to get crowded with kids during those times.

650, 1st Cross, Raja Ram Mohan Roy Road , Sampangirama Nagar , Bangalore
Have used their catering services for a couple of parties, pretty good with the Indian stuff has an interesting concept of live kitchen where they make things like appams on demand. Call and ask for Prakash Kamat.

awesome food, great service. Wish the place was a lil more spread out.....
October 20, 2007
Restaurant
#63 100 Feet Road , Koramangala 5th Block , Bangalore

Only place I know of where you can get freshly baked baguette, ciabatta and focaccia in Bangalore, and they home deliver. They also have an in-house formaggiaio aka. cheese maker, who whips up some interesting variations on mozzarella.

If you are ever in a mood to cook up some pizza or get adventurous with lasagna at home, this is place to start shopping from.

Restaurant
21/1 , Cunningham Road , Bangalore
great place to head out to with the kids, there is an amusement park at the entrance, no great shakes, but enough to keep a 3yr old engrossed for a hour or so

The Taj West End, 23 , Race Course Road , Bangalore
nice quiet place on weekdays, be ready to be assaulted with sound on the weekends from Blue Bar
