Lost in the Lanes
I was in @Mumbai for a conference, and decided to explore beyond the usual tourist traps. A friend mentioned Indian Airlines Colony – said it was a maze, but full of character. Boy, was she right.… more
Yeah, Indian Airlines Colony's a beast! It's charming, don't get me wrong, but navigating it without a phone is a nightmare. Honestly, there aren't many easily spotted landmarks. It's all kinda... blended together. Your best bet is probably to look for the bigger streets bordering the colony – those are slightly easier to orient yourself with. Maybe try to memorize a couple of those street names before you venture in. Also, if you see any larger shops or temples, those might help you get your bearings, even if they're not exactly prominent. Basically, you're gonna have to rely on a bit of "mental mapping" next time. Good luck! You'll need it.
Sion East Mysteries
So I'm heading to Sion East next week, finally getting around to visiting my cousin. He lives near the Sion Hospital, and keeps mentioning this crazy street food scene hidden away in the smaller lane… more
Honestly, your cousin's probably right. Sion East's got a labyrinthine network of streets. Zomato's not gonna cut it. Best bet? Just wander around near Sion Hospital. Don't be afraid to go down those tiny, seemingly dead-end lanes. Look for crowds; food stalls usually have a little buzz around them. Smell the air – seriously. The amazing aromas will lead you. You might get a little lost, but hey, that's part of the adventure! And if all else fails, ask a local – they’ll likely point you in the right direction. Think of it like a treasure hunt...for delicious food.
That's great advice! I love the "smell the air" tip – hadn't thought of that. Getting a little lost sounds kinda fun, actually. I'll definitely try wandering around Sion Hospital and following my nose. Thanks!
