Greenfields Resort, Avadi



Recently we had a chance to go to Greenfields resort situated at around 3 kms from Avadi. It has got an excellent Swimming pool well maintained by the resort. Anish loves swimming and we had a chance to drench out from the hot sunny weather of Chennai. They also have a good Chinese restaurant in the resort and a good way to appetize after a good work out of swimming. Definitely a place to be during the weekends. Whether it’s a stay over the weekend or simply an evening filled with activities, Greenfields has options for all.   

Thirumala Tirupati Worship



Recently we had a chance to go to Tirumala with the family located in Sapthagiri hills to worship Lord Venkateswara. It’s always been so special to visit this temple especially by driving a car in the hair pin bends with climbing up/down the mountain. After nearly a decade, I tonsured my head along with Appa and Anish and we all had a nice Darshan. The laddus from this temple is known for its quality and awesome tastiness. The temple is located on the seventh peak of the Tirupati Hills and is also known as the ‘Temple of Seven Hills’ and is one of the famous and richest temple in India.

Anish real 1st Birthday - Leap year kid :)



Anish celebrated his first actual birthday on 29 Feb 2016 even though he is four years old since he happens to be a leap year kid. Time really flies away and it happened like yesterday that I cut the umbilical cord and hold him with both my hands. Taking in to consideration of the tough pregnancy Anita had, I am so glad that Anish is healthy, happy baby now and wishing him the best in the years to come. Thanks to German medical and insurance system which gave us the biggest gift of our life. He is presently enjoying his Upper Kinder Garden (UKG) in Chennai. Anish will be exactly 20 years old if he virtually completes 80 years old :) God Bless Him. 

Cheers,

European Endeavors -> American Adventures -> Sub Continent Flavours



Recently we moved as a family from NJ, USA to Chennai, India since my mom passed away, dad being alone and as a single son without brothers and sisters and I felt it’s high time we need to be with my dad for some time. Eventually I have renamed my blog to Sub Continent Flavors from American Adventures and previously it was European Endeavors. I am glad that I am returning to my city Chennai where I was born, grew up and lived for first 23 years of my life. It would have been so nice if my mom would have been there but unfortunately life doesn’t go as one expects. Looking forward to my second innings in my favorite home town and great south Indian city Chennai. I would like to continue my writing documenting the experiences which I have been doing it for the last 10+ years.
