The coffee shop by the waters, thats what barista is!

Deli at Gateway Hotel is worth the drools.

Kochi Gallan — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 02:30:20 +0000

Found this review at Kochigallan’s friend site andrinemendez.com.Kool review.We need more reviews like this one.Simple & Precise.

“The Gateway Hotel(a.k.a Hotel Taj) finally offers something that�s quite impressive with its quality & pricing.It�s like they have strike the right balance with this new �Deli� outlet.Impressive yet simple interiors and seating with a classy ambience the brand can offer,the place is worth all the drools. I visited the place with my friend and was surprised to see the billing,compared to the things we ordered.Though the pastries are like puny in size,the food they serve has its standards.If you want to hangout with friends,there are of course better options in town. But if you want to take out your client/associate for a meeting,something official and less casual;Deli is the place to be.”:-http://www.andrinemendez.com/blog/

Kochi loves to hangout at Coffee Cube

Andrine Mendez — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 09:50:43 +0000

“Now,I simply love #coffee and I also love to hangout with friends as much as I love to find new places & hot spots in the city. And all my likes just got promoted to find out this awesome place at convent junction,The Coffee Cube.

Now I really am out of words on where to start since this is like the first time I am finding a place with everything so balanced and nearly perfect. OK !,lets talk about what they serve first. The Menu seems to be having everything, that very fresh & new feel which makes us drool with confusion in where to begin.Smoothies,cocktails,deserts,�. there were too much a option for me to remember. And these things taste as good as it looks,trust me on that.

Now the ambiance,one word..�WOW !�.I must say,their expertise as interior people does comes in handy really here. The place is beautifully done be that the wallpapers, couches be even the window shields. LCD monitors with Xbox adds makes it more live and now they even have Live music 4 days a week if I am not mistaken. All in all,like I said you wouldn�t find a place made so beautiful nearly to perfection in the city.

I would rate 8/10 for making me feel on cloud9 and I am sure you would Love it too�”-andrinemendez.com

Kochi Gallan — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 15:26:57 +0000

“‘Avatar’ continues to dominate the box office with $13.3 mil on Friday”.A trio of new releases failed to topple James Cameron’s Avatar, which claimed the top spot at the box office for the fourth weekend in a row. The 3-D epic earned $13.3 million on Friday, bringing its domestic total to a staggering $393.8 million, according to early estimates.”-http://www.imdb.com/

You heard it right,ladies and gentlemen.Avatar is running for the fourth weekend at sreedhar cinemas.With the crowd showing no� sign backing off,Kochi along with the rest of the world will see Avatar in class ‘A’ cinemas for weeks to come.There were some people complaining that the 3d effects is not complete at Sreedhar cinemas when the person takes seat at the backend.

Fort kochi beach

Kochi Gallan — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 14:09:10 +0000

How to get here:
The easiest and most simple way rather than having to ask so many people for directions is to take a bus which says fort kochi and get down at the last stop and trust me you will definitely find your way to the beach from there onwards.
This is one place where parents are scared to send their children alone to. Situated off the Arabian Sea, not a lot of people might think of fort kochi beach as a great hangout spot. Due to the constant fear of drunkards, drug addicts and not to mention the stench of raw fish all over the place.
But there are two sides to every story! This is one place where you can forget all your worries and chill as you watch the waves. Lately cause of the huge tourist pour in, pathways have been built so that people can enjoy their morning/evening walk along with the serene sea breeze. Once you reach past these pathways there is this beautiful but small stretch of water where you can just soak your feet ( this is the only part of the beach where you can do that cause its sea-weed free) or bask in the sun. (I’m @ a loss of words from this point on )
Must see:
The Sunset at 6 is one marvelous sight which gives you that tingly feeling all over. It looks like the sun is going into the sea. So that makes this the perfect time to ask your girlfriend to marry you!
Meet a fortune teller and let him forecast your future or shed a few rupees and get a fine entertainment from an acrobat or snake-charmer.
Next time you want to take a breather from the bustling city life or just spend some loner time, an ideal location for relaxing and rejuvenating your spirits, as you will have plenty of peace and solitude for yourself in this place.

Chill out Gallan style at Mullapanthal ‘shappu’.

Kochi Gallan — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 18:58:56 +0000

We sent off Josgal(a friend of Kochigallan)from the North railwaystation and headed straight to Mullapanthal.Don’t get me wrong Mullapanthal is one of the finest ‘kallu shappu’ or toddy shop in the whole of Ernakulam.

Mullapanthal
Mankaikavala,
M.L.A Road,
Udayamperoor.
Ernakulam Dist.Pin-682 307.

I didn’t ask the address to any one.The panthal authorities gave the visting card to us(yupp they have a visiting card and even had a website)

LOCATION
So where was I?.Yup sent off josgal and we set off (all six of us) in three bikes.It took us nearly an hour to reach Mullapanthal(blame it on the evening traffic).Mullapanthal is located far away fom the madding city.At Udayamperoor to be exact.From Ernakulam go to Tripunithura and ride/drive staright in Kottayam route.After travelling close to 10kms you will see a temple.Thats the identification.The road turns left and then right infront of the temple.Look for ‘Mullapanthal shappu’ signboard on the right side.Enter the shappu.Should I say the next part?

Every one expects a shappu to be a place where antisocial elements hangout.It is true for many shappu.But for shappu like mullapanthal,it differs.Well Kochigallan found people from all strata of society from top level executives of MNCs to the drunken idiots.Even families visit Mullapanthal.But Kochigallan dont advice it.Because a shppu is after all a shappu.

MENU
The Chinese have an old saying”any creature with its back facing the heaven is consumable if properly cooked”.Its true.Visit Mullapanthal and you’ll know.This Gallan had ‘udumpu fry’ ‘beef’ ‘kappa’ ‘kallumeinkya’ and two glasses of ‘kallu’(point to be noted.We drink just to give company not to get drunk and crash the bike somewhere).Tasted awesome.You will get daily special items.All traditional malayali food.

AMBIENCE
Ambience is average.I mean i like it but this gallans personal choice is ‘Chirakkal shappu’ as far as ambience is concerned.They provide seperate cabin(some people prfer privacy).And the ‘shappu has’ a small mulla panthal or jasmine garden in front.

BILL PLEASE
The total bill for this gallan came close to 150rs.Worth every penny(you don’t get to eat yummy’udumpufry’ daily).Thumbs up as far as bill is concerned.

At about 8pm all Gallans went back to home sweet home.Felling relaxed and chilled out(this gallan even foned his galfriend to say hes chilled).THE END.Hope you liked this story please complete it by commenting what this Gallan missed out.
