Lost and Found - A Night Worth Remembering!

After returning from some important work at UTI infrastructure(Dalhousie, Kolkata) to update the addresses associated with our PAN cards, my father was left clueless at home as he could not find our official documents(PAN card, Voter ID card,Driving license,etc). Our documents were nowhere to be found in the house after a lot of search. Suddenly, he remembered that he must have left those documents at UTI. A lot of time had passed as father was back since afternoon. It was evening time and the UTI office was long closed. We had lost hope that we would see our documents again when my father suggested that lets try and get back there and ask the security guards if they had got the lost items.

Father was thinking to go alone. But I accompanied him. We missed a bus towards Dalhousie at the bus stop. Later a Tata Indica cab carried us to Science City where we boarded the bus we missed.

When we reached Dalhousie to find the office closed, we asked a nearby shop owner who happened to be a friend of the security guard. We described our problem who after a lot persuasion agreed to call the security guard.

The security guards were at first reluctant to search the office premises at that hour. But after a lot of request, they agreed to search. We waited. But they said they could not find any such documents. Disappointed, we left my father's mobile number with the security guard.

We left with a sad note towards the bus stand,  when my mother called up to know whether we have recovered the documents. She too was left sad at the bad news.

Suddenly, a few minutes later my father's phone began to ring. It was an unknown number. He picked up the call. Oh God! It was the security guard who told us that the documents were found at last! Someone had kept them inside a drawer. We were truly overjoyed!

Hastily we rushed towards the office and recovered them!

We rewarded the shop owner with a 50 rupee note as without him this would not have been possible. He was very happy to receive it!

That was really a night(22/12/12) worth remembering!

My Quest For Biryani!

It was a friday evening when nothing else would satisfy my appetite other than this mouth watering dish - biryani.....Ma said that she would make a preparation of chicken-curry/manchurian...but I seemed to imagine nothing except me having biryani for dinner that night.....so she said that if u must then bring 2 plates ....coz my eagerness for the dish had begun to show its effect!

Off I rode on my bike....was feeling so energized by the thought of the refreshing taste......I was so engrossed in the thought that took a the wrong turn instead of heading straight.....no worries.....came back to the correct route and finally reached my biryani destination....the Lokenath fast food corner.......to my astonishment, when I asked the vendor to pack two plates of chicken biryani....he said "Khatam"....I just could'nt believe my ears......how could it be possible?Earlier I had bought food from this same place at the same time(9:15 pm)......But nothing could be done now......But that could not make me go back.....I refused to give up....off I rode on my gladiator towards an unknown destination ahead because I had never gone beyond this place.... By now I was a long way from home....so what? I thought....today I would return home only with biryani....... Speeding ahead....i saw a railway crossing....at the left I saw another fast food stall.....prayerfully I kept searching for the "biryani" text on the banners placed over there.....noodles,roll,momo,chili chicken,.....aah "biryani" got you now my love!!! Please pack 2 plates of chicken biryani for me....."Biryani Shesh(bengali) - Biryani over" came the reply...... how peculiar....is EVERYONE running after my beloved today???.... "Move on" said my inner voice....now I approached a flyover....the neighbourhood road had now come to an end....I saw two shops opposite to each other....The right shop had banners with the words-south indian,north indian,chinese,biryani...... now there was a ray of hope..... but no.... same answer again..... To the left was a mini restaurant with no banners like chinese,north indian,etc... But whats the harm in asking?... Biryani ache(biryani available)? this time was asked a question in return....do you want chicken biryani?.....yes.....ok...we have but you need to wait for around 15 minutes...is that OK?....Sure thing.....I WILL.....I could wait for an hour even.......So my quest was finally successful u see :) ......
Only 2 plates of biryani was available.....LUCKY ME!.....I settled down to sit and watch the first IPL match being played - Kolkata Knight Riders vs Deccan Chargers ......

After a while my eyes sparkled when I saw the biryani vessel being emptied to fill up 2 boxes full of biryani!He carefully picked up each piece of rice to make sure the parcel was hefty enough!....After payment I drove off fast homewards for a mouthful biryani dinner!!!!!This night was really memorable and hence is now residing in my blog!!!
