Gulab Jamun @ Rs.110

by yagyaraman

Yesterday evening, was our Project Team Outing (after a lot of planning for few weeks, we executed the plan yesterday). 5 of us, left Office @ 6 pm (plan was to leave @ 4 pm) and headed to the Mega Bowl in Airport Road. A good place and we went there second time and that was my third bowling experience (100% bowling experience only @ Office expense in all outings).  Came Second (from bottom) amongst five of us. After bowling went to Unwind Island in Outer Ring Road for Dinner (Knew earlier itself that the food is good there and it would be little costly)

Entered Unwind Island. The Ambience and the atmostphere was good. A Hugeeeeeeeeeeeeee TV on the Poolside and dinner tables were also in Open place to enjoy the surrounding. Sand on the ground made it much different. Decided to go in for Ala Carte as the Buffet was Rs. 550/- + Taxes and we would not eat that much. Got the menu card and it was really fun in going through the menu and reading the price. (I found a known disk only in the 4th page).  We thought this place is excellent to visit when Office is paying or someone is treating us……..certainly not on our own expense.

On the Desserts page found Gulab Jamun and the rate was Rs. 110/-. Really surprised and enquired how many Jamuns would be there and shocked to hear that there will only be two jamuns. Anyways it was Office party and decided to try that out. Amongst various items, ordered two Gulab Jamuns. Till the food came, we were all discussing how BIG will the Gulab Jamun be. Imaginination were on thinking about Gulab Jamun to the size of a Tennis Ball, Cricket Ball. 

After serving all food items, at last before leaving the HERO of the menu came and there was two Gulab Jamun stands and much waited Jamuns was just the size of any other Jamun (in fact may be little lesser). Finally, in Office expense had 4 Gulab Jamuns for Rs. 220/- + Taxes (Totally it was around 250/-). The COSTLIESTTTTTTTTT GULAB JAMUN that I have ever had :-)
