so what is this chai gate cafe?where is it and is it any good?
well...i dedicate the name of this blog to the chai gate...as the name suggests a place near a gate where chai is the only item on the menu......you could ask for bhajjiya or biscuit depending on the mood of the chai boy and the availability of the item....but what so interesting in a cup of tea...
well lots....it takes a lot for a coffee addict to switch loyalty.....i still smile when i smell coffee....it reminds me of my childhood and walking past coffee stores ,the air around which was heavy with the smell of good coffee powder which was "the" ingredient in every south indian kitchen.
.........so coming back to tea....my love was inculcated...an appreciation was built and it happened only because of the events that occured at the chai gate. a heated argument which lead to a very constructive activity or a depressing conversation or a hearty laugh......or general chilling out.....the tea always flowed...it was like there were barrels of tea hidden away from view with the attendent serving us refills even before we could see the bottom of the cup........
there have been times when i have seen the shadows change as i sit agaisnt the fence and look at the crowds fill up the place ....its like watching a movie...and the movie changes each time.....sometimes its a classic, sometimes fnny,dramatic once in a while and peaceful most of the times.so basically.......i dedicate my blog to the chai gate that has given me so many interesting moments .....and hope this willl be a space is virtual relity where the same kind of interaction happens ..........
