Wondering if I am going to talk about preparing chow chow bath? Well, in a way yes and not just for you but your family members too!
Step 1:
Pool in all your family members, promise them a great time at the popular restaurant nearby. And keep in mind you will HAVE to bear with atithi (intruders?) at times! Do feel free to use this post; previous sentence to parry intruders if you think they can get this right in to the most complex and gloomy part of their system. My khaas dost will marvel if I am/was an intruder soon after reading this. (Evil laugh)
Step 2:
Struggle to reverse your car out in case if you are a ‘pro’ or you are blessed by the architects of your building. Otherwise reverse with lot of smiles and humming music which will threaten A. S. Dileep Kumar’s fame and name.
Step 3:
Commence your journey with nice old classical music in the car if your family members are classic melody lovers even if you want to play “Cut my life into pieces, this is my last resort. Suffocation, no breathing. Don't give a f*ck if I cut my arm bleeding” loud enough to awaken the mummies in Egypt.
Step 4:
Most often than not, you will have to pull over at a druggist en route to purchase (VP get the dictionary out and begin your search for the next word! Fist pump!!!!!) liniment for your long-standing inhabitant of the family for sprain due to jam packed and laborious routine; eating, demanding, getting pampered (possible from the canine too), sleeping, successfully contributing to global warming, sound pollution and other activities of the like. (For sure you are gasping for breath after reading this short sentence. Guffaw……..)
Step 5:
Vehemently feel good for “gratifying everyone’s need and demand” (glee). And finally head to your destination of the evening plan. Stomach roars in temptation just by the thought of chow. In response to your hunger pangs you push the accelerator hard and from nowhere you get to see Goddess Durga on a two wheeler! Hastily you brake to avoid a collision. Yeah you read it right- Goddess Durga according to few ever devotional, mythological maniac and ‘chance pe mantar chant’ (phrase copied but modified so Dumm’s hunt for another opportunity to fight for copyright :-P) family members. It was a perfect working example of ugly-senseless-stupid-foolish riding and precisely in opposition to the riding rule book!
Step 6:
After all the melodrama you get to the restaurant. Thanks to advance booking of tables’ concept which obviates salivation-waiting. Now you all are seated and it’s just one step prior to HAPPY HOGGING. You see waiters hovering around you with yummy-slurping food in trays.
Within no time your opinion about the restaurant milieu changes to a hospital kind or to be more precise an OT. For people busy in salivation-waiting looks like, the waiters are captivated towards our table. Unfortunately for us, people at the table may lose consciousness and get a feeling of some dreadful surgery on its way in next few seconds! Waiters’ barge and start painting the table with curry, sweet dal, sweet kadi, green chatney, butter milk, mango pickle, etc., to one plate which will fill other plates too. How efficient and tidy the process is! A new dish will be prepared if you dare to ever concentrate too much in to the plate without raising your head. However the service is, we must and should appreciate the food!! (Sitting in office I am trying hard to remember more incidents during my visit to Rajdhani, Forum Value Mall, Whitefield)
Folks, by now steaming chow chow bath must be ready. Happy bulldozing!
Hey, amused about Goddess Durga on a two wheeler? It’s nothing but three people on a two wheeler wishfully changing lanes by waving their hands in rapid action. (lolzzzz)
