The fact that its the 'experience' you pay for and not the coffee must have been well beaten into the head of our marketing stud courtesy esteemed profs like Dash :) So your cribbing about the money doesn't hold any longer..<BR/> <BR/>Simply speaking... had we bought a cup of coffee or even aam panna that day, it would have been for the hour we spent there because we couldn't find any better place to while away our time.<BR/><BR/>So while i still find it hard to believe that my friends could pay 45 bucks for fresh mausambi juice in a food court, i have to remember where it is being sold.. What else is the retail boom all about!!<BR/><BR/>The only thing i agree with is the phoney culture and not quite the western culture that most people seem to be turning to.. its unexplainably disgusting for sure.Shwetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12683232190249429818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11551429.post-50386957522137066042007-04-17T01:58:00.000-07:002007-04-17T01:58:00.000-07:00good thinking and go on to write more................good thinking and go on to write more.............Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11551429.post-1150960695091841462006-06-22T00:18:00.000-07:002006-06-22T00:18:00.000-07:00I completely relate to your post man!!I get a feel...I completely relate to your post man!!<BR/>I get a feeling these days that I am ageing rather quickly. <BR/>Seeing people what they like and what they not. Radio Mirchi, CCD and Barista's and "Its so cool nooooo"<BR/><BR/>I would rather have a nice little cutting chai at a local thela with vivdh-bharati playing in the background. And becuase I am born and brought up in Maharashtra, I would prefer a wada-pav with it.. :)<BR/><BR/>I am really glad to read your post. <BR/>And about the oye-hoe-dilli post.. its too good. Even I hate generalization and all.. but I dont know why every dilli guy I meet arouse exactly similar feelings within me. :)<BR/>Lets say you dont quite agree with what the dilli-hunk is saying and tell him so. You are sure to get a reply starting something like .."oye sun meri baat.. tujhe nahi pataa yeh log kaise hote hai.. "<BR/>so on and so forth.. <BR/>These guys have an opinion on everything and they know everything.. <BR/>:))<BR/><BR/>Anyway nice work man!!<BR/>Keep writing..tmwwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089701078034660981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11551429.post-1150957485444660302006-06-21T23:24:00.000-07:002006-06-21T23:24:00.000-07:00It isnt for the teaspoon of coffee we pay money.It...It isnt for the <I>teaspoon</I> of coffee we pay money.It is for the nice cups and saucers that we pay.And yeah I too love MOCHA though I dont know what kind of coffee it is all about.Saying that would be fashionable..right?<BR/><BR/>And the days of South Indian Coffee or a Mallu Tea in the Imran kadai with a <I>pack</I> of Good Day biscuit is gone.Its the <I>kewl</I> half muffin and a Mocha culture.<BR/><BR/>Nice post :)Curiousmoronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10185324495003975579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11551429.post-1150803344743170772006-06-20T04:35:00.000-07:002006-06-20T04:35:00.000-07:00the coffee culture is definitely not indian - and ...the coffee culture is definitely not indian - and yes, the regular visitors really don't know a capaccino from a latte.
