I found your blog when googling the restaurant at the Novotel in Vizag. As an American living here with my Indian husband, I also have had a hard time finding restaurants that I feel are worth going to in the city.
Enjoy reading your blog! Happy New Year!
An American living in Vizag – i never would have thought it! It’s culture shock for me, and I’m Indian, so I sympathise. I try to post vizag related stuff now and again (markets, seafood, gardening) so do keep reading. I used to do this: http://www.tinybakery.shutterfly.com and now make brownies and cakes if you want some really good brownies.
that’s http://www.thetinybakery.shutterfly.com
Hey! Jus stumbled across your blog and am loving reading all you write
I’m Telugu, from Vizag but studied in Chennai and now working in the TV industry in Mumbai… so I can see we have a lot of common interests 
Looking forward to following ur blog!
Submarine-ing (if thats the right word) sounds so amazing! It’s like something out of a novel. I have a female lab myself. She’s chocolate colored and therefore named Cookie. I liked your blog a lot. It’s different and has spunk (if I may say so). Looking forward to reading more
Wonderful! thanks for reading. I should post more about my dog’s adventures actually. His name’s Abroozi, he’s a 3 yr old fawn labrador.
I think they just call it “sailing” – it’s exciting but it’s also a lot of hard work and very stressful for the families. The things these men have to do to protect our nation in the event of something disastrous, is truly remarrkable and something we civilians don’t hear about. Whatever your politics,anti-war/anti-military, when your spouse is in the defence, you see a different side to things.
