If you aren’t a BITSIAN- read on anyway.
People who eat food may identify with my sentiments.
Pilani, Pilani, I miss you so
Every little inch of you
Hungry or not, flood or drought
I cannot forget your food
75 days since I saw you last!
Since I scooped your strands on a spoon
These last days seem the toughest
My dear Frie(n)d Maggi from Blue moon
Yes, I’m sitting at home
& I love my maa-ka khana
But how do I justify the world
Your absence makes me go bananas
Bananas remind me of apples
And Apples of Mango shakes
I shall have you on the 31st!
No matter what it takes.
And imagine such fruits & many more
Cutely cut & served on a plate
A heathy fruit chat from the UCO Redi
For those who watch their weight ;)
The Redis are living beings, always buzzing
Each with their own unique traits
Chaat, Chai and Chats with friends
They make ideal cheap dates
Pappu ji & his Skylab crew
Sandwiches, Burgers & Drinks.
The entire menu comes in my sleep,
Food-gasms while I take forty winks
IC isn’t that far either
Bread pakoda, dahi vada, maggi
A great way to start the day
Just add a glass of shikanji
And what about the mass feeding ground
Grubs and watery meals for all
The messes some love, some love to hate
Yet hundreds throng those halls
PPW in Sharma’s with a bonfire
A Hot Chocolate in your hand
Misting up Cnot with every breath
A wondrous winter-land
Summers are special too
Think of cool drinks with ice
Quenching thirsts with ganne-ka-ras
And khus & shakes feels nice
The All Night Canteen in Pilani
Fondly known as ANC
Home of great Club Sandwiches
& burgers to fill an empty tank
Food-king an option always
Arguably the most decent in looks
South-Indian fare for those who care
Oh! Those frankeys of which we partook
I really don't mind the unhealthy oils
As long as I don't see how it's done
It's more about the people than the meal
Dinners with college friends are super-fun

Pilani, Pilani, I miss you so
I’ll come back & leave you again
Leave I will then for the final time
But these memories shall remain
A shout-out to those I forgot to mention above (or didn’t add :P ) -

I do miss Pilani but Alas... On the brighter side - i am now an 'ingineer'
ReplyDeleteGood post. Made me for a moment rue about the fact that i am not going to have those Patel Chowk sessions or late night Anc hot chocolate with paneer maggi or my "Plain Chee Mayoni" with Lemon Soda at Sky. Exhaustive list of Pilani cuisine there but you really don't have to rub it in you know!
And are the burgers really that great outside Pilani? Didn't try it. Heard a lot. Rest all been there done that.
Try changing the lighter colors. Creates a bit of difficulty in reading when seen on the sky blue background.
And ya keep posting..
Awesome post !!! I am missing Pilani too... its only 2 more days.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, my post will be next on your blog... in a couple of days or so :)
Keep writing :)
