Making Junk Food healthy

Your absolute love for junk food aptly explains that additional layer of flab, not to forget the high cholesterol and sugar levels. You thoroughly understand that junk food is nothing but a silent killer, yet you can't just get over them. However, with some sensible tips and techniques, junk food can be made, well, less junk in nature. 
 

Here is what restaurants in Delhi and Cafes in Delhi should imbibe in their culinary regimens to avoid making food entirely junk. 
 

Using less butter : Yes, those extra layers of cheese and mayonnaise taste heavenly, only that the health effects of consuming them are not. Restaurants should go in for lesser cheese and sauces in their stuff to make it healthier and all the more appetizing for people. 
 

Using wholegrain bread: Instead of using bread made of flour, cafes and restaurants should resort to healthier practises of using brown bread or wholegrain bread in sandwiches. They are a good option for easy digestion and help keep the metabolism going. 
 

Grilling instead of frying: Burgers and non veg dishes are better, and lesser loaded with calories when grilled. They can always slash off the fat from the meat before grilling to make it even healthier. Going for baked meats and boiled chicken also helps. 
 

Cutting thicker chips for fries: We all love french fries, don’t we? And cutting out on them is an impossibility. But what if we cut thicker slices so that they absorb less oil and stay polite to our health? That would be great now, wouldn't it? 
 

Start using live oil or flaxseed oil: Junk food is cooked in oil, and will always be cooked in oil. But restaurants can definitely make better choices for oil. Using olive or flaxseed oil can be a way better, and a healthier option. 

On The Highway to Enlightenment

I am not really a movie-buff; a cinematic experience is like once in a blue moon affair for me. Yet, when I put a foot into the theater, I can’t imagine settling for anything less than an absolutely thrilling encounter. 

That I am always riding high on filmy expectations is probably one of the reasons why they are, more often than not, met with a disappointment. The urge to see a movie clenches me like hell and heaven woven together, and going by the recent experience at PVR Saket, it was the latter that powerfully conquered the former.

Dancing to the tunes of ‘Patakha Guddi’ this time, I gladly hopped onto the ‘Highway’. I wasn’t really hoping to catch it, the truck that would take me to the bitter-sweet journey, but all thanks to PVR and PVR cinema timings, by 5.30, I was all good to go.

Highway is beautiful, though in a peculiar sense. The edifice is strong enough to arouse even in the most stone-hearted the emotions of, well, bafflement. It leaves one grappling with one’s own sentiments and inklings, and to figure out whether you loved it or just plain hated it will tip you over the edge. But you can choose either. Hate it or love it, it would leave you moved.

The movie doesn’t reek of drama. There is no permeating background score whose edifice could move you. Yet you will feel choked by the narrative of it, which is blatant, in an innocuous manner though.

Highway will leave you gratified. It will urge you to seek answers to questions which are non-existing, or those that have never been raised up before.  It will further propel your alter ego to claw itself from the deepest, dirty slump- slump of the insane, and that of the unacceptable.

Riddled with beauty and darkness alike, Highway portrays an enlightening picture. Or maybe it is a little devastating, too. It paints a problematic picture, yet for every turn you will take on the truck, you will be left grasping for breath. 

That’s it. Highway!

Malls offer the advantage of laying out everything in one coordination package. All you have to do is book a hall and acquaint the organizers with the theme that you would like to lend.

Have Fun this Weekend

Who doesn’t love the weekend! With the kind of work schedules we have weekends are an essential part of our mental health. Weekends which have become synonymous to refreshment and entertainment have become a source of relaxation and energy to continue with hard work for the following week. Apart from this very individual pleasure and advantages of rejuvenating over a weekend there is an indispensable social role and need to it as well. Outings in a bar in Delhi or a spree to some restaurant not only help you relax but introduce you with all that you have been missing, family love, sharing hearty laughs, recreating and reliving old friendships, joy of befriending a stranger and so much more.

It is almost impossible to imagine life without these light moments. Although different people cater to their rejuvenating needs differently the basic idea however is the same which is to de-stress and relax both the body and mind. Be it some sort of entertainment in Saket or a stroll to a nearby park we all deal with our recreational requirements our own way. Some people enjoy company while others have their own little way to enjoy their weekends. Here are some ways you can have an amazing outing with your friends and family:

-Go Shopping
We all usually fix our weekends to shop all the weekday essentials. There is a better and way to do that. You can ask your family or friends to join you while you shop all that you need for the entire week ahead.

-Plan Outings
Go for a few drinks in a bar in Delhi or plan a family dinner with the people you intend to spend quality time with. You can also catch up on movies or may be a trip to some adventure park.

-Take up Hobbies
Look out for things which interest you it may range from cooking to art. Once you have identified what you have always wanted to do all these years, do not give up. Pursue your hobby, search for weekend classes and once done there is no looking back.

Weekend Struck

If it is the fun and frolic of the weekend you miss when you wake up every morning during any given day of the week? Do you suffer from Monday Blues? “YES”. It is critical, you are definitely WEEKEND STRUCK!


“What actually is wrong in being struck by a weekend after all?” Well absolutely nothing or may be something when you plan a lot and end up being in a same restaurant or at a friend’s place or in your bed over and over again.


I am familiar with the type, they are omnipresent, my neighbor for that matter are atypical to this “ high planning”  . Hailing from Delhi, they end up being in the same places of entertainment in Saket without even realizing what a waste to the weekends it is. Stroll down different places, if fragrances it is which interests you, delve into hunting perfume shops in Delhi. You have options and all the time in the world to indulge yourself in your hobbies and interests.

Addressing my neighbors essentially for the kind above mentioned, I wondered why is it that despite of plethora of alternatives and spots for entertainment in Saket, they never really could execute any of their master plans. It was much later that I realized the answer to my “why” is as simple as standing at the threshold of your favorite perfume shops in Delhi and watching your DTC pass by, and you pick the latter and catch the bus to your home. All I want to tell you by this is, let nothing pull your spirits down, not even the availability of thousands of choices you can make, albeit an irony it is. Weekends need to be exclusive, and this is the secret to a well spent weekend. It is that time of the week when you have yourself at the kernel of the world, rejuvenate and relish in your leisure.

Invest In Life Style And Luxury Services

Are you planning to open up a business or invest in one? Putting your worth of assets and efforts in retail sector, and particularly outlets in malls can be an ideal choice. Better location, sophisticated surrounds and upscale ambience are add-ons, which are not even taxed on your pockets. While high street standalone units can be ridiculously pricey, these can be leased on simpler terms. Provision of strata title is also popular.

Any Delhi shopping mall is way better than conventional shops due to multiple reasons. Besides aforementioned, you enjoy unlimited exposure not only of customers who fall in the category of your target audience but many more who can be an indirect client. So, there are quite a few benefits and little harm.

In fact, lifestyle sector is all the more lucrative. Starting up a business in luxury services at a Delhi shopping mall is all the more like icing on the cake. Fashion brands and retailing goods sees higher competition. There is a specific loyal following when it comes to these products and creating your own may need some time. Plus, there is an emotional factor also attached with it. 
Actually people tend to spend more on lifestyle services as it triggers the ‘feel good’ factor. You would barely shop worth Rs. 5000 every time you visit a mall, but sparing that in a salon or in the food court in Delhi while treating a group of friends is common. Spa centres, gyms, salons, tour planners, and restaurants: these are the most revenue generating ventures for mall owners.
Food especially is a powerful driving factor. For 30% visitors, it is the sole reason that drove them towards a mall and they ended up being engaged in other services.

So, launching a business at a lush shopping mall in one of these genres is a good option.   

‘Sweat-out’ in Order to ‘put-up’

The problem with the lean and petite is that no one seems to take their problem seriously. In a world where everyone seems to be eager to shed some pounds, no one is talking about effective and muscular wait gain. As everyone gives it a cursory glance and thinks it would be easy, someone trying hard to put on some fat to change their lanky appearance knows the real picture.

Usually, the kind of advice you would get from the older generations would be to stuff yourself with clarified butter and saturated fat. But the wiser know better of it. It may or may not beat their high rate of metabolism but it will certainly bloat your cardiac muscles and arteries. Cholesterol and high blood sugar is as harmful for skinny as it is for obese. So, don’t fall for such easier pitfalls and opt for a proper training at a Delhi Gym.

You will have to undergo regular workout and a carefully planned diet to put on muscle weight that makes you stronger and gives a well-built appearance. Some crunches and lifts, push-ups and brisk walks at a Delhi gym is all it takes to improve your stamina and tone up your muscles. However, this doesn’t mean that you can skip a diet all together.

You might not need as strict a regimen as the obese but cutting down junk and extra calories is essential for you as well. Just simple replacements and shifts in your eating habits can make a lot of difference. For instance, when you go to a bar in Delhi to enjoy with your friends, choosing roasted unsalted nuts instead of fried ones as nibbles can be a good idea. Also, choose one form of drink instead of cocktails as you cannot control sugar content. Limiting your indulgence is also important.

So, sweat out in order to gain weight, and it may sound awkward, but the savvier would tell you otherwise.

Don’t Forget To Unwind As You Move On Fast Forward

I had read somewhere, ‘You only live once, and once is enough if you do it properly’- a very apt statement describing the irony of modern life. The pace at which we encounter shift of emotions and situations has outrun life. With the motto of extracting more from each and every second of existence, fun and frolic has taken a back seat in the super mechanical contemporary lifestyle. Families have lost the essence of having some quality time together.

Even the weekends are occupied with household chores and vacations are sparse. One can hardly spare some time for ‘Nothing’. In fact, as days pass, we are caught up in the same old monotonicity of daily life, not realizing that precious moments are passing us by. In a time like this, even the small moments caught over the dinner tables of restaurant in Delhi or while having a cup of tea should be saved and relished. 

So, never miss an opportunity to defy rules and steal some time with your loved ones. However, ironically, the shopping malls in India have worked out an effective plan for us but to our own benefits. With every single amenity of need and entertainment, stringed into a single loop, you can efficiently save time and multitask between enjoying and shop for necessities.

While your children enjoy in the kids play zone in New Delhi, you can rush the grocery shopping at departmental stores. But once what’s important is done and the family is ready to unite, you can choose activities of mutual interest, from the available range of options—which is not scarce by any means.

Moreover, you can skip the daily cooking routine and indulge in flavours and hospitality of one of the fine-dine restaurants in Delhi. Then, a movie afterwards can be nice, or if you plan to do something more engaging, then get back to the kids play zone and enjoy a game of pool or snooker.

So, even in this busy routine you can easily snatch away some quiet moments and have some fun.
