Silly-kaun Valley!

We recently shifted to a new office. The eTail team has grown so fast over the past two years, that it became imperative for our division to shift to a new office. The postal address boasts of an impressive area - Banjara Hills Road No. 12. I say impressive, since it is by far the most expensive area to live in .. with showrooms and plush restaurants all over the place. Little wonder why the top management decided to shift here, aside from the fact that the office was the only Vastu-compliant office readily available at that time.

The office seems good, but sadly lacks in all the aspects of infrastructure ... no Class A internet provided here, public transport to a minimum, cellular networks barely reach here, this place is good for one thing ... seclusion. Lack of network reach here makes for highly boring times ... I did not know how much chattering I do on my cellphone until I came here.

Hi!

Now that you are in Hyderabad, I would urge you to visit 3 places(if you havent already). Even if you are not a foodie!
1. Hotel Saarvy at Mehendipatnam (I hope i got that right - for chiecken 65 - i am hoping ur not a vegetarian)
2. Universal Bakery - Have been an ardent fan since the past 12 years now!!!
3. Papa Ji da dhaba: I think its near universal bakery.

why am I doing this? because you wrote of hyderabad and I couldnt stop myself from mentioning these places.

Enjoy~
