Wrapping up Bangalore (updated)

Last night i got a taste of Bangalore night life with Sach. We first went to this local's rooftop bar that overlooks a major intersection and had some of the local brew. After this place Sach took me to a lounge where all the asians in the area go to. haha I had no idea there were so many asians in Bangalore. The music was an interesting mix of of pop, hiphop/R&B, house, reggae, and Indian. Overall I had a blast and definitely glad I ran into Sach at the cafe.

Tonight I'll be heading to Chennai on an overnight train. Time to experience authentic travel in India.

update:


With a couple hours left before my train to Chennai i headed over to UBcity, an upscale shopping center in bangalore. To my surprise, this place was actually really nice. All the typical high end designers were there: LV, Burberry, Mont Blanc, etc. Up on the roof was an ourdoor pavilion food court with lots of nice restaurants. The place I ended up eating is an all you can eat restaurant where basically you have a plate full of tons of small bowls filled with different dahls, curries and sauces, and people come around and constantly give you different breads, rice, and refills on your little bowls. Before you eat, this dude comes with a pot of warm water to wash your hands. Overall the food was fantastic, so much so that I totally forgot it was an entirely vegetarian meal and was a good fill up before my trainride to Chennai.
