Agent Jack's Bidding Bar Sector 29, Gurgaon

Sector 29 market in Gurgaon has seen a flurry of activity recently with the opening of several eateries in the vicinity. But what separates Jack's Bidding Bar from the rest is an innovative approach the management has come up with.

So instead of ordering your favorite drink straight off, you can bid for it. The price you pay can be decided by the special bidding platform created by Agent Jack's team.

The drinks were awesome and the bar very well stocked. The service was quick and the staff was eager to help. I met the manager, running the place who is a courteous and warm person and comes from a finance background. He is excited about the whole App and bidding thing which makes the pricing of drinks more interesting for the patrons.

When a person places a bid, interesting messages also come up on the screen. The place has projectors all over the place, to beam live the bids and the messages. It lists all the drinks available, their price and bid price.

AJ's Non-Veg Platter is a recommended try from my end. It has a full variety of non-vegetarian items and goes well with your drink. Nachos is another dish that compliments your drinks well. The chicken pizza is yum and way better than the veg one. (I always say that). The fish here is a must try. Avoid the usual main course stuff here as this is a true blood bar. So go for the right finger foods and if unable to decide, nurse the perfect wheat beer and chip away their famous large papadoms or papads.

I had eaten similar ones at India on My Plate at Fortune on Sohna Road. You keep munching them, and while they taste great they are hardly fulfilling and very light making them a great eat.

Dessert

Tried BlueBerry Cheesecake which was okayish, Not bad if Blueberry is your flavor of choice

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Epitome of Equality

First of all This is not to demean any religion.. I am a Hindu by birth, but yes I respect all religions .I offer my daily prayers , fast on holy days , but there was something that was disturbing me . God as per me was a Friend, someone who was by my side always , someone who was a dear friend , but this is not what everyone else thought , for others he was the Judge who gives his verdict always and punishes anyone and everyone . Walk into any temple and you would see , if you have money , you will be treated in a way as if you are the ONLY disciple of the God . I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...
