An evening at 'Legend of Rock'

It was Friday evening and I badly wanted to go somewhere and chill out. Eventually, my friend Tejaswini suggested this absolutely awesome pub named 'Legend of Rock' or 'LOR' in short. Knowing that she was pretty much aware of such places, I promptly agreed to go and so did Shohini, another friend of mine.
Within 5 mins we had shut down our systems and were literally running to board the bus so that we could get to our destination really fast. We reached LOR at 7 pm. The pub is located in Koramangala (close to Sony World Signal), in the city of Bangalore in Karnataka, India. Accessibility is pretty easy, as there are buses and autos plying in this area.

LOR has three levels,with the decibel of music varying in each level. Loudest at the first level. Literally the head-banging kind. A little less loud in the middle level - allowing you to listen and chat at the same time. At the topmost level, the music is more on the background, thus enabling one to enjoy and not scream at each other when talking. We decided to go for this level.
Now the best part...the third level was the rooftop. We could enjoy the view of the city and the music at the same time, not to forget the beautiful weather. We sat at the table next to the railing.

We placed our order. Me being a teetotaler, I ordered a mocktail for myself with a pretty interesting name, 'Safe Sex on the Beach'. It was a mix of orange juice, pineapple juice, bitters and one other thing, which I forgot. While Shohini ordered a 'Long Island', Tejaswini ordered a 'Cosmopolitan' and 'Fuzzy Naval' for herself. Aside the drinks, we also ordered Chicken Lollipop, Onion Rings and an absolutely stunning dish named 'Cheese+Cherry+Pineapple'. I need to mention over here that this was Tejaswini's recommendation...and it was a sure hit. At the end, I also ordered for myself another mocktail named 'Mango Bloom'...well, it is the season of mangoes and couldn't resist myself from trying out something that had a touch of mango in it.
The food is pretty good here and the service is more or less prompt...it surely justifies the price.

The ambience was amazing...the dimly lit atmosphere, the soft music accentuated by the cool breeze that blew on our face, simply set the mood for an evening of total, unadulterated fun and enjoyment.
What attracted me most to this quaint place was its decor. A blend of simplicity and style, it featured a certain 'urban desi' look.

The three of us spent the entire evening laughing, cracking jokes, acting silly sometimes and of course a little bitching about people.

We finally left the place at around 9:15 pm, happy and satisfied that our Friday evening didn't just pass off.

Infosys – A dream

A month has passed since I joined Infosys on June 6, 2011. Getting a job in this company, one of the most respected companies in India and the world, was like a dream to me. I pinched myself hard the day I went for the interview and received the offer letter. I was really not dreaming. It was reality. It was the truth.

Infact, to be very honest, I can't still believe that I am part of this fabulous organisation. Today, as I sit on my chair, I feel honored to be part of this company that has acheived so much since its formation way back in 1981.

All I can now look at is to do well in my new job and acheive success in every feat that I undertake.
