Okie people, finally got myself to post another entry....

It has been over a week since my last entry... Well, I've managed to accumulate enough materials to blog now.

This is Bangalore Central Shopping Centre. One of the newest ones around here I guess. It is basically one big mega mall where it is a departmental store spreading over 6 storeys I think. It sells everything that a normal deparmental store will but it is not really a Hypermarket. However, the supermarket on the topmost floor does have some vegetable which I hardly see elsewhere. I managed to buy my first "Bai Cai" from there. Its called "Exotic Phakchoy" on its price tag... yeah..considered exotic enough over here.
They taste quite nice with my oyster sauce. I also managed to cook garlic fried rice too. This is the second attempt and it finally got the taste of garlic unlike the 1st attempt.






Looks like they are celebrating Christmas like back home in Singapore? Hehe... nah... it was Karnataka Formation Day on the 1st Nov recently. Only till last week, the people around my area started the mini celebration with lights and getais... yah... "Getai"s like our 7th month festival like that... they set up stages for people to sing and perform on the streets. They also celebrated their Elephant God, Lord Ganesha together. 2 birds in one stone...

Well, it does make me think of the chirstmas lightings along orchard road.. heard that the lights are on already to create the festive season atmosphere to make Singaporeans spend..

Here's a "Uniquely India" kinda photo. A bus with roses stuck to the sides with scotch tapes and also colour papers stuck on the wheels. Wonder if its related to the State Formation Day celebrations.


Over here, they do have unique buildings which catches my eye too. This is a castle-like building along St Marks Road. I liked the castle stone wall kind of design. I think we might only see this kind of designs in Singapore when they clad up a busstop along Orchard for some advertisement.
