Seventy ways

Last Sunday me and my roommate, went out for a movie at a mall near MG Road, Bangalore. Well, as Bangalore has more people with disposable incomes than movie halls for them to dispose their incomes in, we didn't get the tickets we wanted.
Ambling around we decided to try out some 'freshly baked cookies' (can't name the chain,they have enough 'disposable' money to sue). Well, the cookies weren't fresh, or crunchy; the staff was indifferent and I found none of the advertised nuts in mine. Probably we selected the wrong flavors.

Cost of two cookies( paper napkins included, VAT included) : Rs 70/-

We came out of the mall, down the street, by a roadside ATM and found a small'ish shop selling a unique combination of " Chats and Italian". We went in to find out that it also sells paranthas. Ordered 4 paranthas ( 2 gobhi and 2 sattu :) with customisation ( no oil, no butter) and two bottles of soft drinks. Service was good, the chef was talkative, the table was clean, the fan worked.

Cost of the two meals and drinks ( paranthas came with dahi,subzi, achar and salad) : Rs 70/-

Lest it be felt that we were out only with gastronomic intentions in mind, let it be known that the afternoon was spend browsing through books at Crosswordz and then buying a few from Blossoms.

Evening we decided to try out some falooda at another roadside shop. "Falooda special with fruits" came in a tall glass. A mush of vermicelli, syrup, color, ice-cream topped with apple, nuts and incidentally, the chefs hair; was delightful (except for the hair part).

Cost of two glasses(with profound apologies for the unintended topping): Rs 70/-
