Bombay I

Well, a quick Dos and Donts in "Bombay" as understood by me in my few days here
1. its not Bombay, its mumbai
2. Dont take a vodafone connection, they dont want new customers here
3. Dont take a tikona net connection, they do not have anything called a service
4. Do go to tgif and ask the waiter what is the cheapest snacks u have got - which is nachos btw an its awesome
5. Do Crash a private party in Tote at mahalaxmi
6. Do go to indiana cafe in mahalaxmi by mistake (psst..its not a cafe after all)
7. Do eat at timbuctoo and order hukka flavour tsunami (its mind blowing) in mulund - ya they do have a mall there surprisingly
8. do play antakshari loudly on marine drive at 12 in the night so everyone stares at you
9. Do watch IPL final bombay vs chennai in the stadium. the atmosphere is electric
10. Do book a cab for after the match however expensive that is, else it will take 3 hours to reach home
11. Dont ever in your life board a churchgate fast local from borivali at andheri. you will be crushed and thrown on the tracks otherwise
12. Dont eat at Oh Calcutta on your first day here, especially if you are veg
14. Dont have a 13th point as it is considered unlucky
