Musings of my complex self
House of Kebabs – A decent house, but no home
I walked in House of Kebabs for lunch one day when I was supposed to wait in Basavangudi for a couple of hours for an errand. The name and ratings sounded appealing and I decided to try this place out.
Ubuntu 16.04 Desktop – First Impressions
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS was released last week and I wanted to try it out soon. As I just gave away my home PC and I couldn’t close applications running on my laptop, I had no choice but to try it out in a virtual machine. I just wanted to see if it works properly, loads…
Black Mug Cafe – An Unexpected find
Another week, another cafe. I was quite surprised to find one in my own backyard. I just started searching for “Nearby” cafes on the Zomato app, not expecting anything. I actually found a cafe not even a kilometre from my house and I was shocked. I went to try Black Mug Cafe the very same…
Vinaya Coffee Moments – Delicious, but uncomfortable moments

Grill Inn – Loaded inn cheese
Cheese! That’s the one word review for Grill Inn. You love cheese? Go here.
Muffets and Tuffets – Not a cafe
Muffets and Tuffets is nice for an occasional lunch but it is little on the nose for regular cafe visits. The value for money is not great. The first day, it costed me Rs. 1000 for the burger, steak, coffee, drink, and pastries.
Le Charcoal – Non français
Just a fancy name does not a fancy restaurant make. Le Charcoal is good and could use some improvement and for that I can happily rate it 3.5 out of 5 stars.
Waffle Walle – Be One with Waffles
I have been visiting Waffle Walle and having their delicious waffles since over a year now. It was awesome in the beginning, went a little down a few months back, and it is back to awesome now.
Reviewing 2015
2015 is easily one of my highlights for years to come. I am looking forward to many more eventful and memorable years but at this moment, it looks like it will be difficult to beat this one.
The 41st Annual Cake Show in Bangalore (2015)
Unlike the previous years, we had much more time to walk through the cakes this time. We reached at a time when there was virtually no one else in the hall (except the people working there). We walked around at leisure taking photos.
Got any book recommendations?
