Shiv, Zahid, Zhao Lin, Arnuad, Eliza, Kenneth and I had a Mysore trip last weekend.

Felicitas, Christohper, Zhao Lin, Kevin, Kenneth, Liang, Al, Eliza, Jero I went to Chennai for a visit during Jul 22 - 23.

 

We boarded the train in Bangalore and after 5 hours arrived in Chennai station. We soon hired two cabs and went to Maha..water and settled down in Sea Breeze Hotel. At around 4pm, we had a simple meal and started exploring the place.

 

We walked on the sand of the beach and went to a small temple near the sea, passed by some craftsman's store and took some photos of the statues, explored some hills which had temples.

 

The next day, we headed back to Chennai city and explored the city. We intended to visit some movie studios but unfortunately they were closed that day. Anyway, we visited some shops instead and Zhao and Kenneth both bought some Kuta.

Guoyu, Luke, Zhao Lin and I yesterday went to the Leela Palace to have lunch. The Leela Palace used to be a Royal Palace in the past, but now a 5-star hotel.

 

We were not to live there, but just for our luxious lunch. We arrived at Leela Palace at around 1pm. On arriving at Leela, we first took a look at the hotel. What a spectacular place. The building was  in traditional Indian style with security guards wearing traditional Indian uniforms. The decoration of the walls, doors and floor showed its deluxe and luxury.

 

The palace served multi-cuisine, such as traditional Indian food, Japanese food and Korean food. The most recommanded food here was the Salmon. Zhao said it was the best he had ever had.

 

We ordered Champagne, Salmon, Beef, Pork, Baked fish, as well as some dessert. Zhao and Luke had two cups of Champagne respectively. I had one cup of Champagne, a dish of beef, lots of Salmon, but I belived that I was drunk and didnt have much. What a pit.

 

Definitely I'll be back, Leela Palace!
