To the Manor Born -1

Lion Roars


JNNURM was to improve the life of citizens of the concerned State, not
tourists. But in Goa, it has been used to underwrite buses to ferry
tourists from the airport! As privileged is crorepati MLA Pratapsing Rane,
who declared assets of Rs 50 crores in 2017, but availed of a house and car
loan of Rs 45 lakh. Also entitled is Mauvin Godinho  who has at least five
cars in his garage and property everywhere but took loans of Rs 45 lakhs.
And bought a Rs 10 lakh Ducati at the ripe old age of 56!

A sweet tooth that Sridhar indulges
Pushpa Iyengar in Bangalore

The famous chef earned the “godambi” tag because he would garnish all
dishes with cashew nuts. The right-angled table in the community hall was
groaning with divine sweets, melt in the mouth savouries and tickle your
tastebuds masalas. At Gokulasthami he is much sought after by the members
of the Iyengar community who can find his hub  because the aroma wafting
from his kitchen leads you by the nose!
