Weekend Doings

Sunday- started with Badminton session in our local Leisure Center.Afternoon was spent walking in High Beech and Connaught Water with orange lollies in hand.The weather was lovely and we enjoyed the walk around the lake.



Evening was a more noisier affair as we had our friends N&M and their two kids came down for dinner at my brother in law's place.We had Rajma/Mattar Paneer/Aloo Chole/Dum Aloo/ Puris/Rice finished by Rasgullas and Ice cream.Unfortunately i could not take any pics.

Saturday- Morning A had to give our car for servicing and i stayed at home doing cleaning/cooked dry vegetable made up of Bell Pepper and potatoes/ bought fruits and vegetables from East Ham and played with my 4 yr old niece.
In the evening we decided to venture into the city .. so we started walking from Bank of England passed St Paul's Cathedral/ Blackfriars Bridge/ South Bank/ Royal Festival Hall. There we came across these handmade crochets which replicates the forms of natural coral.They were so bright and colourful that i could not help myself but take a few pics.


Then came London Eye followed by London Aquarium.Since the weather was so good, the place was full with people enjoying the sun set.





We continued towards Houses of Parliament / Downing Street/ and reached Trafalgar Square.There we browsed some of the restaurants like The Texas Embassy,A Local pub,Maple Leaf-Canadian Restaurant,some Greek eating places and number of Thai eateries but finally ended up eating in a very chic place called Bangalore Express.

A had complete Indian Thali served with spiced yogurt curry, roasted aubergines,tempura salad,rice,cucumber raita and naan served with paneer and vegetables.



I had an Indian style Pizza stuffed with spiced paneer, mushrooms and peppers served with cucumber raita and onion tomato salad.



Friday- we started our weekend "Gone Baby Gone".After a very tough day at work i was not in a mood to watch such a heavy movie with lots of twists and turns.I think i would have enjoyed the movie on any other day but Friday. We reached home late and didn't bother to cook but ate precooked Garlic Herb and Cheese bread.
