Delhi: Winters & Shopping

I had heard a lot about Delhi from some work colleagues but never really thought I would live in the city. Having been brought up in Mumbai, my whole life was scheduled to be spent in the city but an interesting work opportunity made me reconsider my decisions and encouraged me to explore the capital of the country.

I landed in Delhi last month and found a perfect flat that I could call home in Rajouri Garden, West Delhi. It was very near to my office and had a market within walking distance. All major necessities were at an arm’s length here. I loved it!

Last week, after taking three long weeks to settle in, I had a weekend to myself for the first time. I knew I would have to build a winter wardrobe here and had already brought some light woollen clothes from Mumbai but I had underestimated the harshness of Delhi winters by a huge margin. A colleague suggested me to visit Pacific Mall, Tagore Garden, which I found to be at a 3 km distance from my new home. So, I dedicated my Saturday to shopping at what was considered to be one of the Best malls in Delhi.

I woke up, got ready and rushed to the mall around 12 pm. The mall did not seem that crowded at first but with time, it started to fill up. It was a huge mall – so huge that there were floors of brand stores and kiosks. One could buy all kinds of apparel and accessories here. The stores were exclusive, offering the best of branded merchandise and collections to patrons. There were cafes, food outlets, food court and restaurants to give the best of dining options to the visitors. As soon as I spotted these, I knew why Pacific Mall, Tagore Garden is one of the best malls in Delhi. All my needs could be taken care of here, as simple as that.

Of course, I spent way over my budget but I returned home as happy as a toddler who just got her hands on a secret stash of candies. I spent my Sunday trying on everything I had bought and video calling my friends and family to show off my glamorous purchases.

College, Malls and Dreams

  I lived in Dwarka, New Delhi for 3 years, from 2013 to 2016, for my college education. I rented a bed in a paying guest accommodation in Dwarka Sector 13 and would travel to Dwarka Sector 9 six days a week. This was my first time living away from home and it took me a while to get used to the independent lifestyle. Things became better when I made a few good friends in college and formed a good social circle. After the college classes, some of us would want to hang out and to find a decent place, we would visit all the malls around looking for a dining establishment where we could sit and relax for hours on end. My friends and I must have visited over 4 malls in a week but found none of them to be operational. We did spot a few food joints but the rush of customers would force us to leave the establishments after our meals. We wished and hoped that someone would build a fully-operational Mall in Dwarka for us but it just did not happen in the three years of our college lives. ...

A Brief Analysis Of Restaurants In Tagore Garden

Food Court and Restaurant in Tagore Garden - Pacific Mall Restaurants in Tagore Garden  are almost the finest in Delhi NCR. There are two specific views to see these restaurants apart from the competition in  food and beverage in Delhi . The first one is the variety of international cuisines and their authenticity, then specializing in courteous services. For instance, the restaurants like Chilli’s serve the finest Mexican food. You can find one in  Pacific Mall , Tagore Garden. Therefore, when you have already decided that you are going to have Mexican this evening, then chilli’s should be your destination. When it comes to services, chilli’s is a reliable option. We all love Mughali dishes. In Tagore Garden, it may be hard to find an authentic place that serves the genuine Mughali dishes and other North Indian dishes. Dariyaganj is a renowned and pioneer name for these dishes. It was them who has crown to serve first Daal Makahani and Butter Chicken ever. In Tagore Gard...

An Attractive Destination

Dehradun used to be an institutional area in the late 90’s but by the early 2000s, the city started developing its residential, commercial and recreational sectors to appeal to migrating families, school and college-going youth and salaried employees. Real estate agents and private builders stepped in to take over the residential sector, corporations stepped in to develop the commercial sector and entrepreneurs stepped in to establish recreational zones in and near the commercial and residential sectors. The entrepreneurs invested in restaurants, movie theatres, cafes, bars and game zones to take advantage of the rapidly increasing young crowd in the city. As more and more institutional groups set up colleges in the city, restaurants and movie theatres started observing a rush of crowds. There were already many restaurants in Dehradun in the late 90’s but the establishments catered to the well-off families who would dine at the restaurant every once in a while. But in the early 20...
