So far So Food...

 Its been a week now at IIM A...

More than anything , it has been the food that has been impressive..
Sample this ..(no pun intended)
Ras malai on Monday
Hot n Sour Soup - Tuesday
Chocolate Pastries- Wed
Srikhand - Thur
Vanila Ice Cream and Gulab Jamun- Friday
Vadilal's fruit Paradise Ice Cream - Saturday
Sweet Corn Soup - Sunday

And this was only the dinner that I was talking about...

The Breakfast is another thing that impressed me - Everyday there is a special dish prepared in addition to the Lime Juice, Cornflakes and Bananas that are kept ...

All this happens in the Student's Mess... Right outside the Mess, is popular student hangout...
Cafe "There Ain't No Such Thing As Free Lunch"  popularly condensed to Cafe TANSTAFL
 
 At no point in the day, would you find this place empty... For most people, this is not just a cafe.. it is a live saving device... The Student Mess closes at 9 pm ... and trust me, you will be awake for a lot longer after that... and the only place for food at 3.46 in the middle of the night is Cafe TANSTAFL.... so you are better advised to respect this place...

I continue meeting different people... Today evening, all of us were sitting on the LKP ( This is the Luis Kahn Plaza- named after the Architect-Genuis who designed the IIM A campus..)

Met a batchmate limping..
"What happened?" I asked

"Bloody Football!!.. "..(note- This guy is a 5ft 10 inch guy, about 90 kilos, the chubby jovial kinds..)

"What about it?"

"Learnt a few lessons today-
a) Over enthusiasm for the game after a gap of 3 years is not a good thing..
b) Respect Gravity
c) Respect your Body and most importantly, your body's limitations.. And lastly
d) Trying a never attempted cycle kick without considering prior experience, gravity, and Body Mass is the most Stupid thing one can do on the Football field!!!! "

With this, he limped off, clutching his back while we all laughed our lungs out...

I hope I keep meeting such specimens... Its the people at IIM A , that makes this place IIM-A..
