I took a walk from Haudin Road Last Night to get some meds and kept walking past Manipal Center, ,Hasnat College , took a right past the Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan enclave walked past the Tagde Raho / South United Football Club and Maverick and Farmers . I entered the road parallel to Kamaraj Road after passing the Government Library.
From here I went off towards Mother Theresa Circle but found my meds At Archana Medicals .
I thought i will go back to Haudin Road , started retracing my steps past Raju Bar ...
I reached the beginning of Veerapiallai street and started walking.
I reached Kamaraj Road .
In my view there was Khan Saheb Rolls , Sreeraj Lassi Bar , Excelsior Bakery , Local Bakery ( Venkateshwara ) I think and the Rogue elephant in Sabha
I walked in to excelsior bakery. They were closing for the day .
I walked up past Khan Saheb Rolls , past cool Joint ,took one of the side roads and started walking into the back lanes of commercial Street , wandered into Meenakshi Koil Street , kept walking took one right ,left walled past a saravana bhavan ,kept walking and then suddenly I was near Russel Market area , saw the St Mary Basilica Church from a distance as well ..
Kept walking , walked past Savera Cafe , and the food center of Shivajinagar, walked past and entire set of food stalls on the pavement as well as on the main road .
Here is when i reached the place where I took the picture of Namma Shivajinagar.
Opposite it was Hamza Express , Persian Majlis and Nawabi Chai
I have ordered from Nawabi Chai several times .. it was good to finally see the place where I got the chai from.
I walked into Hamza Express .. they had a small area downstairs.
I spoke to the gentleman at the counter.He pointed me to a flight of stairs ... Walked up into the area .it was like a family room .. one family on my right side , a couple of girls and a couple on different seats.
I saw a man wipe plates wearing the restaurant T shirt.i asked him if he would take the order .
He said another person would come and take the order
I ordered a ghee rice , half a bottle of water and a garlic chicken Kabab and a small coke in a glass bottle .
