Vastu, also known as Vastu Shastra, is a traditional Indian system of architecture and design that seeks to align buildings and structures with the natural forces of the universe. It is believed that by adhering to Vastu principles, one can create a harmonious living space that promotes health, wealth, and happiness. The importance of Vastu in interior design lies in its ability to create a balance between the natural elements and the built environment. According to Vastu, each direction is associated with a particular element and energy. It is important to align the various elements of a building or structure with these energies to create a harmonious living space. One of the key principles of Vastu is the concept of "purushartha," which refers to the four goals of human life: dharma (duty), artha (wealth), kama (pleasure), and moksha (liberation). Vastu seeks to align the design of a space with these goals, ensuring that the space promotes the well-being of its inhabitants....

Bombay Club is located close to the Colocal Café at the Dhan Mill Compound, Chattarpur. Its ambience is soothing with lots of white. The skylights and the use of mirrors gives the place an expansive, spacious vibe. The cane furniture is right at home, and you can get seating near a power plug. Just in case you need to work with a laptop or on the phone and need the charging point. The service is full marks at Bombay Club. Aakash, who served us, pampered us well, with each request followed. He also helped with the right recommendations and was extremely patient while we decided which food to order. The variety is wide. The management has curated the best and most famous foods from across Mumbai. Somewhat reminded me of Bombay Sandwich Company, another Mumbai food-centric eatery at Cross Point Mall, Gurgaon, which I think has shuttered down, unfortunately. Personally, I don't like the QR code menus in vogue today, so I liked it how they had put up a blackboard with the sp...

OMO at Galleria Market in Gurgaon  with an earthy and minimalist décor serves some unique vegetarian fare with interesting ingredients sourced from various parts of India. Would definitely recommend the coffee ☕ here beans for which have been sourced from Nagaland. The service is quite good with the staff patiently explaining to you the food and its ingredients in case like me, you do not get an idea about what to order. Minimalist interiors with wooden ceilings at Omo Galleria Bright Hospitality, founded by Rajan Sethi is famous for its non vegetarian fare. Across their brands, from the now closed California Boulevard, AM PM Cafe and Bar, Ikk Punjab and GT Road they have served great meat dishes (the veg is good at their outlets but meats are legendary). I was therefore surprised to hear that Rajan and his wife Deepika had now worked up a new eatery dedicated to quality vegetarian food. My curiosity led me to this beautiful OMO Cafe for dinner with family.  The coffee beans ?...
