Fun with friends :)

It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?" - A.A. Milne

So my group of friends met up for lunch again after our meeting at Mai Tai a couple of months back. We decided to meet at Mamagoto in Bandra. Mamagoto has an extensive menu with lots of choices. All of us love the food there!

As always, it was a lot of giggling and laughing, swapping stories, pulling each other's legs and wolfing down the food. Its always so good to catch up with this group of friends. And we had a special reason to meet up this time. One of them is moving out of town for further studies. So we don't know when the six of us will meet up again - probably not for a very long time.

So we had a sort of farewell lunch and then went out for a photo shoot which was a barrel of laughs. Mamagoto has this signature yellow tiger design which served as a good background for us! We even got someone to take a group pic which was like our "Friends" moment ;-)

I am sharing below a few pics from that day. You can see we are quite a quirky lot from the pics :D

PS: I will share my outfit pics from that day in another post.

Trader Vic's Mai Tai - a review

Like I mentioned in the previous post, my friends and I met up at Trader Vic's Mai Tai for lunch a couple of weeks back.

Location: Phoneix Marketcity in Kurla
Other locations: Lower Parel, opposite PVR Cinemas

Google tells me that Trader Vic's is an internationally established family of restaurants & lounges and home of the original Mai Tai. I did not know this when I first visited Mai Tai. It was a coincidence that hubby and I one day ended up at Mai Tai. We were looking for a different cuisine and hubby suggested we try this out. And I am so glad we did!

My friend Mansi finally agreed to an outfit post and we had a fun photo shoot when we met for lunch recently :)

I have always liked Mansi's sense of style. Her styling is generally quirky + cute but minimalist. And it sure looks great on her! She is also very camera friendly and photographs beautifully, unlike yours truly who is actually quite camera shy ;-)

So for the lunch, she wore a printed red Levi's dress and accessorized it with multi-colored sandals and a gorgeous watch. Its a fun and breezy outfit and just perfect for the hot summer that Mumbai is experiencing.

Sharing a bit of background, Mansi actually went to buy jeans at the Levi's store and instead ended up buying this dress. This came as a surprise to me cause I associate Levi's primarily to jeans! Has anyone of you had a similar experience?

Would love your thoughts on this OOTD. And yes, fingers crossed that Mansi will do more
