Heady Feelin'

Coffee replaces wine on St.Marks Road! A fortnight after it had been launched me and my frnds stepped inside the Hard Rock Cafe and stood still soaking in the memorabilia around us.We got a bit cramped feelin as we scanned through the ambience. Jus after the counter(where some chink ladies were takin names of the ppl as it was a weekend evenin and ppl were pourin in like hell) there was a Rock Shop with kinds of souveniors like little guitar chains and band T-shirts were on sale!..It was a good feelin..
They've used the space without damagin the heritage buildin. What was once a coffee shop(Barista) is now a place where ppl eat and drink with classic rock music played in vicinity. At the entrance itself there was essence of 'namma bengaluru' as the hoardin read "Hard Rock Cafe-BENGALURU".And as we scanned thru the food menu we saw found local delicacies to add some value to the joint.
We had to wait for half an hour to get seated since crowd was increasin on that weekend evenin. We had been seated in such a place near the display cases of autographed bass drumhead used by Black Sabbath's Bobby Rondinelli above our table and we cud also see some pink floyd stuff too! For a place dedicated to great music,the music sucks! The music is really loosely defined since the acoustics are not consistent throughout, because of stone walls and high ceilings.
We ordered the most unregular stuff that most college students (due to the absence of bank balance in their wallets) as we had a bit of cash so we were like lets try it!..And if anybody wants to come here alone it can be tad expensive.This is one of the cafes which you cud go once in a month or two!..
All in all it was a great experience!
Rest apart, holidays re comin to an end and it was great vacation!
Ciao!
