SIGH. XL_Target, Tirpassion, EssDee, TC....you just stared me on a calcutta food pine :)
All of this and the food at Bhojo Hori Manna, and 6 Ballygunge place.. nom nom
Is the Pepsi Dhaba the one near Ballygunge Circular or something, which had the pic of MF Hussain and others..
It was one of my favorites too.. Oh Old times.. And yes, those Chicken Bharta I can never forget...
Been 7-8 years I have been to Kolkata. Still of my my favoritest place.
I used to tell people, who says that Kolkata is Boring. You have to know where to go :-)

And the Pub scene was awesome. Second only to Bangalore. Someplace else, the live band at Trinkas even thought a bit Cheesy.
The pub at Taj Bengal. We even sang a couple times there hahaha. They used to have these Asian Imported singers lol.
Ah Good times
Hmmm.... seems someone is missing Kolkata badly :D
How about a trip in August/ September when Tirpasssion is in town... Not that you are not welcome right now but as the saying goes.. more the merrier, especially if we are planning to hit Park Street at night... Some Place Else at The Park followed by chicken bharta, mutton malai kofta, chicken butter masala and nun at Azad Hind Dhaba while watching M F Hussain's painting inspired by Madhuri Dixit :D :D

:cheers:

TC

Done deal.. Will surely make it.. :-)

Just dropped Saptarshi and Lawman. Major has played a major role. On drinks started with soft ended with hard, started with Air ended with LMG. To justify two words be enough "Fabulous and Magnificent. It's up to any one to imagine the extent.

Ok Guys here it is .

Last week got a call from Major and after discussing for a while major suggested , how about meeting again this weekend at his place. Without giving a second thought I jumped in , and contacted Swajan. Swajan is a man with full of energy and always ready if it involves guns. So two of us confirmed on the spot while we have to wait for other members to confirm. Decided to contact Lawman this time since he missed it last time, while typing an email to him on Thursday got a call in my phone, the guy at the other end introduce himself as Lawman !!!! WOW !!! What you call this telepathy ? Coincidence ? whatever it is ..but I was sure that, this time its gonna be a gala meet .

On Saturday , I asked lawman to come near my place as it we will be going to swajan's place and start together from there. @4:30 I reached Taratala and after looking for a while, I found one gentleman wearing a military cap weaving his hand towards me !!! wow you must be lawman , but how you recognised me ? Immediately realized I asked a stupid question as we are living in internet age and he already saw my photos in IFG forum.

We reached together at swajan's place, as swajan is supposed to carry his discovery with him. but to my surprise swajan has a fascinating collection or Air Rifles , which include a very rare crossman ball shot , a Diana Mod 35 in .22 , A Vintage BSA .177 and a Benjamin Discovery

Swajan's Crossman Ball Shot one of the rareset kind I have ever seen

We got busy in discussion and almost forget that we have to go to major’s place also, and realized we are way behind our schedule only when major called us.
We reached Major places @6:30 welcomed by lush green army Campus, though it was little dark to explore its beauty but who cares. We discussed and discussed on almost anything of every shape and size ;) (Related to guns off course).
Needless to say discussion goes on along with some fine drinks and lovely foods beautifully arranged by Major.
Ok enough talking now let the photograph do the rest 
