Posted on by Aditi Malhotra

With the festivities and wedding season all set to rock the nation, here is an insight on whats really going on in the weddings these days. Ankur Garg, the man behind Imperial Event & Wedding Planner, shares the latest technologies that are raging the Indian Wedding Scene.

“Marriages are made in heaven”. True; only until matrimonial websites and portals didn’t exist. Now the saying goes like, “Marriages are fixed over matrimonial sites, executed with high-tech planning and talked about, on the social networking sites”. Now this sounds really cool, isn’t it??

Indian weddings are supported with high income barrels to ensure that the guests never get over with the vulnerability. Technology, as we all know can make anything happen. Indian Wedding couples are making use of it to the fullest. Let’s see how?

GIF Cameras

Graphical Interchange Format Cameras are for clicking some really cool poses in a go and then you get to see it as animation on the screen set-up as if the pictures are moving! Friends and family at the wedding events love to gather up and mumble bubbly expressions to extend the drama!

Drones

Sounding like one of the Bollywood superheroes, it is, in reality a super camera! Drones are wireless cams which are controlled by remotes in order to capture the best shots from the best angle in Indian Weddings. It has made things very convenient in this era when the couple doesn’t want anybody to steal the limelight when they adorn each other with jaimalas, not even the camera person! This is when drones are used to capture the moment perfectly from all the possible angles, i.e. , dronography. At Imperial Event & Wedding Planner there is a Drone expert team now.

Selfie Sticks & Charging Booths

Fellas and family are always witnessed going mad over pictures and more of selfies but Oops.. there is a ‘low battery’ notification on the phone! In order to keep the fun on,  at Imperial Event & Wedding Planner the team ensures that charging booths are set up at the wedding venue which not only makes sure that your mobile’s battery doesn’t drain but also keeps your selfie stick at work (which is another latest technology at Indian Weddings)

Ankur says, “Wrapping up the tech-savvy dynamics at the Indian Weddings, I would like to mention that it has just begun. Eyes are resting on some next level technologies like driverless cars to drive away the bride and robots at the venue to charm away the guests and so on..Our planners @ Imperial Event & Wedding Planner are well informed of all the technology moves. So plan it with us and look forward for a great experience for a wedding that is hard to forget for all the people who witness it”

Self Healing Workshop by Dr. Rangana Choudhuri

Posted on by Aditi Malhotra

If we look around us closely, we would find a lot of people who are true living inspirations, there is a lot to learn from their lives, their journey and their experiences. I recently had an opportunity to meet one such lady, Dr Rangana Rupavi Choudhuri. She is the founder of Vitality Living College, Vitality Leadership and Vitality Living, transforms lives through emotional well-being, personal development and spiritual growth seminars and trainings with international certification as well as one to one sessions.

workshop-2

Self healed from cancer, dys-functional reproductive system and chronic pain using alternate therapy and then left her highly paid career to develop a 7 step coaching system and created the life she wanted and now travels around them world-wide helping others to heal and transform from within and create the life, health, relationships and wealth they desire. According to her poor health is related to emotional stress and trauma, suppressing emotions can lead to diseases and hence she insists on healing oneself by controlling emotions and stress. She teaches EFT(Emotional Freedom Techniques) for the same. EFT is now used worldwide by millions and clears emotional stress and upsets. The technique has been clinically shown to reduce depression, anxiety, traumatic stress, phobias, pain, cravings, grief, fear, hurt, guilt as well as negative memories. Once negativity is cleared it creates a feeling of well being and calmness.

workshop-1

EFT combines tapping on acupressure points while repeating specific phrases relating to stress and emotional traumas. The technique integrates ancient wisdom and the science of acupuncture with modern day psychology without the need of needles.

Negative emotions cause a disruption of the body’s energy system. By tapping on the acupuncture points and saying phrases out loud EFT re-wires the energy system creating a feeling of peace, calm and letting go. In many cases after EFT, people experience a shift in thinking that is more empowering.

While attending her workshop, I saw many live examples where in people shared their issues and Dr. Rangana instantly guided them through the process of EFT. I myself have been practicing EFT ever since I attended her workshop and I recommend this strongly. Dr. Rangana keeps conducting these workshops worldwide and the information for the same can be found on their website www.vitalitylivingcollege.info. Make sure you attend her workshop next time and benefit from her healings like many others.

workshop-3

For me, meeting her and attending the workshop has been a life changing experience and I look forward to many more. I truly believe that no one but we ourselves can heal us from inside and that is what matters the most, but people like Dr. Choudhury act as catalyst in making us understand the importance of self healing and also the processes for the same. In the end I leave you all with a quote “I suggest that the body and soul react to each other in sympathy. A change in the state of the soul would necessarily have an effect on the body and vice versa.” – Aristotle, 400BC

Barney Butter is all set to launch in India by Oswal Organics!

Posted on by Aditi Malhotra
Barney Butter, a leading California based almond butter brand all set to get launched in India by Oswal Organics.
Founded in 2008 in Fresno, California, Barney Butter is one of America’s leading producers of almond butter, and one of the few specialty nut butter brands devoted exclusively to almond products. Barney’s obsessive focus on the quality of its all-natural almond butters has inspired a three-year growth rate of 553%, earning the company a spot on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies in the U.S. Barney crafts its small batch, artisanal almond-butter with organic, fair-trade, non-GMO ingredients whenever possible to create the taste and promote the values rooted in its California home.
screen-shot-2016-10-03-at-12-01-44-pm
Company President & CEO Dawn Kelley states “We’ve always seen Barney Butter as the kind of dietary staple that deserves to be as good to your body as it is to your taste buds,” says Kelley. “That was the thinking that inspired us to develop an all-natural product in the first place. It also drove us to become one of the first specialty nut butters to earn the non-GMO Project Verified Seal, almost five years ago.”
 
They’re creamy and smooth, and they don’t need to be stirred or refrigerated. Why choose almond butter? Almond butter has less saturated fat/ more calcium, iron, vitamin E, fiber and magnesium than peanut butter. Launching in India with a bang of 8 variants Smooth, Crunchy, Raw & Chia, Honey & Flaxseed, Vanilla & Espresso, Cocoa & Coconut.
slide5
Natural nut butters in general are VERY good for you.  That’s because they contain a lot of healthy, unsaturated fats that help to maintain good cholesterol levels, slow digestion, and can actually be used as a good fuel source by your body on ketogenic diets.  Almonds themselves contain a lot of Omega-6 fatty acids, which when balanced properly with Omega-3 fatty acids, can ensure your body stays in top form and is resistant to excessive inflammation. 
untitled

Finally, almonds may actually help you to lose weight, despite being a high calorie, high fat food.  There have been all sorts of studies done on the consumption of raw nuts, including many tests on human subjects regarding diet and weight gain.  People who eat nuts at least twice a week were drastically less likely to gain unwanted fat when keeping their diet in check.  So what are you waiting for?  Have some almond butter, and don’t you dare feel guilty. 
Currently available on Amazon India and all the leading stores at 999 MRP for 284 grams.

Rabbit Invades North India with First Playboy Cafe at Gurgaon!

Posted on by Aditi Malhotra

Bringing in the essence of playboy bunny embellishments and its vibe in your everyday bar and café is how Playboy Café has been thought through. After successfully launching Playboy Club, Hyderabad and Playboy Beer Garden in Pune, PB  has now expanded its wings to North India with its first outlet in Gurgaon Sector 53. Quirky interiors with walls adorning Playboy posters, a world class bar, with a huge seating area spread across 3 floors, Playboy Café is nothing short of being a feather in Gurgaon’s Food & Night Life Cap.

img_7747

img_7849

I recently visited the place for a specially curated event for food bloggers organized by Foodmaniacs (Vickhram Vicky).

I loved the ambience and vibes of the place right from the time when I set my foot in. I was welcomed by one of the most fascinating drinks, Playboy Vodka Chai, which is Tea mixed with Vodka, fresh Mint, Cranberry Juice, Orange Juice and Honey. I loved both the presentation and taste of this drink. It should definitely be tried.

img_7735

In starters we had Nachos Topped with Garbanzo and Blue Cheese Yogurt Kababs, to begin with. The Nachos were nice and loaded with beans, feta and pomegranate seeds. I personally didn’t like the Blue Cheese Yogurt Kababs much, as one I found them to be on the sweeter side.

img_7757

img_7788

img_7796

Up next were Fritto Misto and Cajun Fish Tikka. Fritto Misto was a sea food platter consisting of Squid, Prawns and Fish dusted in Chef’s special flour served with sweet chilli sauce and garlic aioli. I loved this platter, the fish, the prawns and the squid were fried to perfection, were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The Cajun tikka too was perfectly spiced and roasted; I simply adored this dish and highly recommend it.

img_7778

img_7784

For drinks I tried the Playboy LIIT, mother of all liits, it had 11 spirits juiced up, and the presentation was killer. It came in a big red telephone booth and looked awesome.

img_7767

img_7771

Next we tried Green Eggs Benedict, a signature Playboy preparation, and Pudina Lamb. Poached eggs on a steamed bun with cheese and creamy green colour is what comprised of this signature dish. The taste was mild, as one cut through the half boiled eggs and the yolk oozes out with cheese and softens the bun, it becomes one mouth melting experience. Though the dish was good, but I was not able to place it well as an appetizer, for me it will be heavenly if served for breakfast, but nevertheless, one should try, its different.

img_7791

img_7801

The Pudina Lamb tasted good and was nicely spiced, but the lam could have been tenderer, it was slightly stretchy. I am sure the chef will take my feedback in a constructive way and there wont be an issue next time around.

We also tried Keema Ghotala, Southern Style Mushrooms, Cheese & Green Peas Maggi, Chicken Sumai, Thai Rice & Chicken Dumpling and American Poutine. Keema Ghotala is Playboy’s version of Keema Pao and is a must try. Southern Style Mushrooms were good too, crispy and tasteful. You can give Cheese and Green Peas Maggi a skip, because somethings are better without experiments, American Poutine was a little put off, as the fries had dollops of wine sauce which was too sweet and it killed the taste of fries. Order fries without the sauce and you will be better off. Chicken Sumai and Thai Rice & Chicken Dumplings were definitely the show stealers, they not only looked good, but tasted yumm too, do try them out and thank me later!

img_7808

img_7810 img_7814

img_7817

img_7826

img_7844

Though I was already full with the starters, but yet excited to try the main course. So together as a group of foodies, we ordered Grilled Fish, Chicken Duo and Spaghetti Bolognese. The grilled fish on a bed on rice was totally a scrumptious indulgence. The chicken duo was worth ordering too, you should definitely try it. Spaghetti was the only weak link, it wasn’t bad, but could have been a little better.

img_7875

img_7879

img_7886

Now coming to desserts, we tried the Tiramisu, which was simply mind blowing, creamy coffee taste, and a sinful indulgence that’s totally worth every bite. Then there was a Red Velvet Jar, which too was amazing.We also tried Chocolate Decadence and all I can say is that it’s a must try for all chocolate lovers. You will fall in love with it, at least I did, so much that I got so engrossed in relishing it that I even missed out on taking its picture, but the indulgence was a bliss. Never mind the pic. Do remember me when you try it, and come back and thank me for sharing it with you all J

img_7852

img_7853

img_7883

All in all this Rabbit is worth catching, so please head straight to Playboy and just sit back, relax and enjoy great food and drinks. They have a fully loaded bar which is meant to be explored, and the bar tenders there come up with some breathtaking tricks that you will have fun watching.. so enjoy!

img_7863

I had great fun with my foodie friends and I am sure you will love it too.

Posted on by Aditi Malhotra

Known worldwide as a beer festival, Oktoberfest is a phenomenon to be experienced! And it’s time to Celebrate the spirit of the German festival at an enticing destination, Q Bar – VITS Luxury Hotel, Mumbai. With international beer brands and German delicacy, VITS Mumbai has continued the legacy of serving its guests and patrons the fantastic beer fest.

And this time I had the opportunity of experience spirit of the carnival right at Q-Bar with free flowing beer and special German staples that kept the spirits high. Serving a perfect opportunity for beer aficionados to catch-up, the fest offers an array of German Brews and appetizers in pints, towers and beer buckets. I can bet that this is a cracker deal for guests can relish VITS’s carefully chosen menu to pair with preferred drinks, Music, sumptuous food and tones of fun.

Starting with the 1st beer cocktail – Expresso Black Velvet Beer, the smooth coffee flavored cocktail was just too quenching. The taste just lingered for longer while. And the Captain’s Keg was just another invention which was an innovative cocktail but promises to leave one energized like no one’s business.

img_20160930_211824175  img_20160930_210722046img_20160930_210855774

German delicacy like Butcher’s Platter, Chicken Rolls & Wiener Schinetzel were one among the few yummy recipes dished out by VITS.

 

Espresso Black Velvet Beer – Espresso Black Velvet Cocktail is seriously the best of both worlds, beer and espresso, and I plan on enjoying many glasses of this lovely elixir here at VITS. One may think this an unlikely combination but it’s actually quite good and some people prefer it over other cocktails

img_20160930_211824175

Captain’s Keg – Ahoy Matey! A typical Pirate Cocktail that it is but has earned many fans across the European coast. The Captain’s Keg, made with white rum, guava nectar, and grapefruit juice, then topped with light beer and garnished with a lime wheel.  “This is your captain speaking, and I recommend you to have it!” This is what you would too say post having this nectarous cocktail.

img_20160930_220521667

Butcher’s Platter: Scrumptious sausages of meat with a mix of taste and flavor captured the best of German produce. This “slaughter platter”, with its sausages of pork & chicken, is traditionally made and served with German Potato Salad. Well-grilled & soft sausages were simply lip-smacking.
