An Evening Alright !!!

/

/
My first visit to a 5 star hotel’s restaurant in Central London… Called the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park.
Amazing service for two reasons…
Thats how it is in the Park
and it was the Pastry Chef’s birthday
So we ordered our starters and the main course…
In addition to the Chinese Spring Rolls, The French Asparagus Salad, The Thai PakThai, The Indonesian Nasi Goreng which we ordered, kitchen made some “not on the menu” dishes only for us… The Arabic Pita Bread with Humus, and the Chinese Dimsums… very interesting food this was…
And I was asking Abhishek to tell me the best dessert in his kitchen, and when we checked for desserts we were told that we cannot order it because the kitchen had prepared something for us… again not on the menu… So we had something made of Hazelnut cream, black berries, strawberries, raspberries, blue berries, and choux… suppa duppa…
Thanked the people around for the amazing dinner and then walked to Piccadilly for my so far favorite club in London, the Strawberry Moons… the inhouse DJ plays amazing music and even with my very limited knowledge of songs I enjoyed the beats that make you move… and to add to icing on the cake, he played Summer of ’69, Jump, You Give Love a Bad Name, Wake me up before you go, Grease and a few more that I knew…
and now time for the highlight of the night… Picture this..
A platform for pole dance…
lovely young women dancing there (no these were not performers, these were the guests at the club who could do their 30 seconds or minutes to fame)
and my friend Abhishek decides to enjoy his birthday doing some pole dance with a girl there… comes down of there after 15 minutes and then is dragged up again by a blonde who literally takes all his clothes off doing the pole dance with him… So my dear friend cheers the crown up with some topless dancing for sometime and becomes an instant celebrity !!! This should be good for a birthday 😀
And we left only when the music stopped which would have been around 0300 hrs…
this does not look like and end to the post… 🙂 its not… the weekend is still on… two more days to go… lets see whats happening… It might just be like all the other weekends… Ghar, Movie, TV Food and a relaxed time…. 

I Ain’t Got no Left Feet !!!

Its amazing what one good song can do to you…

I have been pretty dull since morning… and winamp just now chose to play “Mauja hi Mauja” from Jab We Met…

first thing i did was pause it, put the headphones one, increase the volume and PLAY…

and i could do nothing but dance while sitting in couch… well too lazy to get up you see…

My eyes closed… and what flashed through my eyes were

1. The jam sessions at college
2. Spectramind parties
3. Hughes get-togethers where we used to dance our asses out on our favorite songs being played over and over again ( the sariska outing where we played Dhol Mix of Summer of 69 over 25 times; the rain dance party when Summer of 69 ruled, followed by Amar Arshi’s Kala Chashma)
4. Mantas party when we danced almost all night;
5. IBM’s new year parties;
6. A couple of outings at Capitol, Ashoka in Delhi

Not that I am a great dancer, but I don’t dissapoint… not myself neither anyone who gives me company !!!

I am getting a kick out of thinking about those evenings…

And while I was writing this post, Winamp decided to play DJ with Hare Raama Hare Krishna from Bhool Bhulaiyya…

and now in true DJ ishtyle, a twisty song from Hey Baby…

O Meri Jaan, na le le meri jaan… teri adaa…

Gustaakhi Maaf Kardi.. Ab to insaaf karde…
Apna Dil Saaf Karde.. Kehna to Maan le..

Jaane bhi De.. Jo bhi hua Jaane Bhi de !!!

Hey… could someone send me a link where I can get the list which is published in the Delhi Times every week, for the last weeks best songs?
