Are you guys tired of your regular routine? All those tasks that you hate the most and still have to do unwillingly? When you wake up but you’re still in the bed, lost deep in your illusions that it’s another day with the same boring routine – getting reprimanded for average performance at the office, studies and life. You know you are running that race of life, where your work always races ahead of your desires, where you can’t waste even a single second.. Then I’ll suggest you to just “forget your race” infact “leave it”. No, No, No I’m not saying leave it forever, but just for a while. You know that you are stressed and to get over this, you actually need a break. But the trick is in finding an efficient way to do it.
Getting on a tour or a party? No way! You really don’t need to spend shit loads of money and time, as these both need to be spent judiciously. The best way to relax your mind and regain the magic of willingness (creativity + happiness) is always near you – FOOD!
Our old streets having the flavorful essence of taste are a blessing for the foodies in town! I’m not going to talk much, here you go with the best 13 old Delhi streets holding that magical taste.
