Spread the fire!

Nando's is in Chandigarh . . . and truly it's 'spreading the fire' in the town. Nando's is truly a different genre of restaurant and foods. No wonder it's a preferred destination in 34 countries around the world.  And now, when it has arrived in India starting its journey literally from Chandigarh (though it had been around in Mumbai for two years), the legend has truly landed in the country.
It's not only about chicken but a lot more veggie stuff laced with super-delicious peri-peri.  Forty percent of its menu would cater to the veggies here.  You cannot have everything in one visit and it requires repeated visits to savour the meals here. And everytime, to appreciate and enjoy your food, you need to eat slowly, savour each morsel, enjoy the juices, roll it over, feel the peri-peri tinge, and feel everything melt in your mouth.  Superbly marinated and flame-grilled, every item in the menu is 'peri-peri' exclusive.
You can pick from a wide array of salds, including couscous, mediterranean or caesar, and spice it up a little with 'Appeteasers' which would delight every pallet. For the main course there is an array of veg and non-veg grilled fare, and the food lovers can go for something out of the world meals that includes a Espetada (also available for the veggies), Espedtada Rustica or Chicken Steam. The ones in the hurry can pick up burgers or wraps, while the family can select a sumptuous platter.
And nothing beats Nando's desserts, which are a treat to watch and eat...Caramel Cheese Cake, Chocolate Cake, Fruits of Fantasy, The Chcolate Crunch Roll, etc. etc.
Well, it's great fun, sitting in the restaurant with classy ambiance, enchanting artifacts, and its signature Nando's music.  One would love to wait for the order and enjoy the cosy surroundings while sipping Crimson Cola, Lemon Drop or pomegranate lemonade - Madeira Red, or the Citra.
It's great place to chill with friends, family and business associates.

Heat Wave is coming!

Chandigarh is becoming foodies delight. The people who enjoy good food, a great evening out, and celebrate life with their family and friends, can be found in some of the choicest restaurants around town. And many new international brands are already here from Pizza Hut to Domino, to the Peddlers, KFC, rubbing shoulder with our home-grown chain of restaurants, Hot Millions, Gopals, etc.etc.

The newest addition is going to be another 'peri-peri' hot brand, Nando's. An international cuisine of flame-grilled peri-peri chicken! The Heat Wave is going to hit the city in Sector 35B next month, early November, just after Diwali.  So brace yourself to taste the best and log on to Nando's Chandigarh facebook...and you might get lucky to win Free Lunch!

Now fly straight into Chandigarh from abroad

The wait for the people in Chandigarh would be over as fresh announcements about starting international flights from the new airport are making the round once again. Fly Dubai, which had to abandon its connection to Chandigarh due to refusal of permission to land at night due to security reasons, would again be looking for the opportunity.

The new terminal is expected to have separate facilities for handling international passengers,
and with the night landing facility also getting operational by January 2011, we hope that one would be able to fly to Canada, USA, Malaysia, UAE, and Bangkok.

Solid Waste Management

We keep on hearing about the problems with our municipal waste treatment plant and more often than not we have the fingers pointed at them for not being able to take care of the city's garbage and continued smell emanating from there, without knowing the real fact.
The moment we talk about garbage we consider anything and everything that is discarded from our office or created in our kitchen or backyard is suitable to go into the municipal waste bin.
Netherlands and European countries have disciplined themselves to handle waste and have been able to successfully generate power to meet the requirements for their cities. And the starting point is our home. The most significant, the very first and foremost requirement for managing municipal waste is segregation of domestic waste. Segregation of waste right at the point of origin is the only way to successfully manage municipal waste.
The process must start from our homes. The campaign to keep our city clean and green must start from our own homes. Let us keep separate bins to dispose of the household and office waste.
