It&#8217;s great hanging out with all the students (from all our various offices) and even though we don&#8217;t seem to leave the complex that much, there&#8217;s still so much to do. <\/p>\n<p>Eating out in India is very easy and is relatively cheap for what you can get. Here&#8217;s a list of some places that we&#8217;ve eaten at and a brief review about them:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bombay Post<\/strong> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Located opposite the Diamond District in a complex that also hosts TGI Friday&#8217;s and IndiJoe. It&#8217;s a much more upscale Indian restaurant with a wide variety of dishes. I think it tends to focus on North Indian food though we had a plethora of dishes with plenty of rice, bread and various starters. I think between the 9 or 10 of us, it ended up being around INR6000 for both food and drink (Kingfisher beer)<\/li>\n<li><strong>BBQ Nation<\/strong> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c I think there are several of these restaurants that specialise in serving grilled shish-kebab like foods at the table. Waiters place a charcoal grill into the middle of a table over which they continue to bring pre-grilled sticks of meat and vegetables to continue cooking at the table. They also bring around various curries, tandoor foods, bread and rice to the table in addition to a full buffet covering even more curries, salads, soup and bread. Also on offer is a dessert bar including combining traditional Indian and westernised desserts. I&#8217;m not sure how much this one is. <\/li>\n<li><strong>IndiJoe<\/strong> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c A restaurant located in the complex containing TGI Friday&#8217;s and Bombay Post, serving continental food including tex mex, Chinese, Thai, mixed grills, pizza and pasta. A Two for one drink offer continues until about 8pm. Most meals average around INR600 in addition to drinks.<br \/>\nGregory&#8217;s \u00e2\u20ac\u201c An English pub located in the Royal Orchard Hotel serving Chinese, Thai and a small amount of English food. This place tends to attract a more westernised and business crowd, including a couple of plasma screens showing European football. Meals average around INR400 with a pint (330mL) of beer starting at INR120.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well I&#8217;ve arrived and it&#8217;s been pretty much, eating, sleeping and lots of teaching.
