Indian Fix!

A simple celebration turns out to be a blast! A week before my birthday, I invited the "chupachups gang" to have dinner to celebrate the 27 years of my existence is this happy but crazy world. I wanted something simple but different; I also want a quaint place that's good for dining and conversation. And I found this, Indian Restaurant in Tagaytay. 

That afternoon of October 2, we met up at Glorietta. And as usual three creatures were late! I, Melvin and Gab hopped ourselves into Lester's car and a road trip is set to happen again. Funny thing was, even before we left Makati we got into a little trouble and found ourselves with two Ayala guards, because of a traffic violation. But after a couple of minutes with some bucks out of our pocket and discovered the acting prowess of Lester we continued the journey. There was another roadblock, THE TRAFFIC! Do I need to tell more about it? Nah, I don’t want to…

We arrived at Taj Andanita Restaurant just in time for dinner, it was a foggy evening. We just had the place to ourselves; it was cold and very quiet. The guard courteously welcomed us, and then we were seated. The seats looks like we were in a VIP room and has a glass wall behind it, I just can’t imagine how beautiful it looks during the morning.

So I was handed the menu, but before I was able to choose the waiter played some Indian music and it reminded me of those belly dancers in the movie. We were all ecstatic as these were all new to us. Cam whoring everywhere!

Then I sat in the corner to choose for our dinner. I can remember how Lester commented how knowledgeable I was in picking the food that we were about to eat. That’s the fruit of being a sucker for food and travel blogs! Laughs! Well, enough about the rants, here are the pictures…
