ZOMATO

Sounds like another website on reviews! Indeed it is ,but its not just "another" its but the "other".
While for most foodies like me are in constant search for a place where we get the perfect dining experience .not only in terms of food but in the overall experience ZOMATO provides a unique blend of fine taste and the perfect ambience.Its a virtual world of food.You can savour your taste bud with a number of options that the site has to offer.What gives ZOMATO a fine edge over the rest of the websites offering similar information is ;
(1) A significant point of difference as far as search content is concerned.The information provided about each restaurant is unique and whole in itself.What is rather demarcating is that ZOMATO provides the menu online!Yes online for all the food conscious people.You can directly run through the menu and decide if the place offers you want you want.
(2)What is also commendable is that the website is very user-friendly.There is little clutter and the sub-heads are defined.So what a typical food lover would appreciate "FOOD" is delivered without creating noise.
(3)The website also provides a feature called "map" for each individual restaurant covered.Thus acting as a mouse trap laid with cheese,so that a Foodie can easily track his/her food.Its more like a food navigation.
The above being features exclusive to the website that makes it the ultimate guide of a food-connoisseur.What I further suggest ZOMATO to help them find a passage into the hearts of food lover through their stomach are the following suggestions:
(1)Why not have an additional "calling/helpline" feature,something on the business model of "Just dial".The idea behind this is that anyone from anywhere can assess information about restaurants without actually logging into the website.
(2)What I found missing was it lacked coverage in terms of the cities covered.I would prefer seeing more of Tourist Destinations say Goa or any other holiday destinations because people generally feel lost in a new place and end up landing in wrong eatery places thereby carrying a negative experience.
(3)The website offers customers to select from fine-dining to take home search options ,what I would further like to see as a customer to increase the ease of access is more "fine-search" in terms of segmenting restaurants based on "music" or "ambience offered".

I rate ZOMATO a 4 on a scale of 5 as it can take me through this amazing journey in the streets of FOOD.If you find the above constructive,check this wonderful website and I am sure you will never ever look elsewhere http://www.zomato.com/

lOST

My heart suffered a near puncture,
at the depth of your indifference towards me,
For nothing could be meaner than the everlasting pain you left on me ...

The unknown

Fake did it seem,
The love so cold,
The pain so ruthless,
Meaner was you & Weaker was I.
For fake was you & real the Illusion.
The weaker I grew the stronger the Illusion.

Fear Undefined

For strange is me & stranger this world.
Suddenly I found myself in a midst of a dramatic scene happening on board our very own "Delhi-metro".Nothing of the discomforting Romeo & Juliet scene actually shook me,it was something more graver & weird.Rather something that I don't usually feel a part of.Seeing rather some strange activity taking place between two smart equally handsome fella companions...d stereotypes of seeing men dressed in pure black-pathani suit struck me...not that i am a racist, in fact I am someone who'll be least bothered by it.What was rather worth noting was the kind of gestures exchanged between the men.A very spooky feeling hit me making me sweat till d very end...I started questioning metro security,the metal detectors,something unusual was unfolding.All I prayed was my security,like all selfish beasts on this planet do..What a relief I sighed when I stepped out of this tube...The lights suddenly went dim & all the walky talkies spoke of it...
The darkness of the whole situation move me still....Life's worth living for & not dying of bullets n bombs it made me feel....

Interviewer:Y do u choose this college?
Ans:Ha-Ha-Ha for three obvious reasons:-1)either I did not score well or 2)Ur' s was d only option available or 3)I skipped d deadlines 4 d forms of far better institutes than urs.That's my loss but your Gain!

Interviewer:I believe you r very self-centric!
Ans:R'nt YOU?You sitting right infront of me,pouncing on me with questions & being judgemental about me?If boasting of the goodness in me is being self-centric then perhaps YES I AM nerd!!Winner stands alone...m sure the title did not make sense to you (:P)

Emotional Atyachaar

What a sudden emotional outburst is this?
Is it just a passing phase or is it here to stay?
Why do you moist yourself OH! my eyes?
Is it a speck of dirt or just over secretion?
Are you so blinded not to see the reality?
Or is it what you want to see?
Why are you so full of emotions at this troubled hour?
Haven't you read the stronger you portray the better you are?
The world see's me through you..
Why do you portray such a dejected you?
Stop dreaming my eye..coz it's not what is true!
The real is infront of you yet you ignore!
Open up my dear eye else you will be blinded forever..
This world is not what you always want it to be seen..
It's treachery that is above us all..
The drops that you shed are real to me..
But just a deception to someone you love!
Let there be no more emotions trickling by..
Coz generally you do not have takers to hold them back..
Stop it this day my eyes..
I command thee..else i break-down!!

ODE:Closer to Reality

Everytime I passed through those empty corridors,the chair so chained in your loving presence...I feel a sense of emptiness.Afterall it was the first time I encountered reality that every life has a dead-end!You were so part of me that not seeing you around one day was a thought that never passed by.Your love & kindness that kept us all united suddenly would loosen up I did not realize.But it all happened this fatal day.A day of sadness that engulfed us all.We realized we were once again united in agony & pain that you left us as a reminance of your character.I know now that you are closer to God & looking upon us from the sky above.
The grave that so embraces you,is covered with mud.As is in the Bible-"What is born of the earth shall merge with earthone day" salvation is what you have got.You left us with bitter messages of 'love that binds us,pain that holds us & remembrance that holds us firm in your name"
The legacy of you we shall all uphold.I remember you today Grandpa coz I remember the pain I felt when I realized you weren't around.In loving memory of you I write an ode.Your love will I ever carry,your thoughts i'll forever bear...coz that was when i encountered the reality that life has a dead-end.......
Miss u dada...
