FIRST DOMESTIC FLIGHT IN THE PANDEMIC WITH THE FAMILY

First Hand Experience of flying with my family In the Pandemic. We Chose IndiGo as they are excellent with wheel chair passengers and the flights have a history of reaching bang on time.

A FEW MANDATES

Web check-in is a mandate. IndiGo is swift in prompting at each step of the way about. I have booked into Row 1 for our flight to Udaipur as its convenient more so as my grandmother is travelling with us. Apart from the web check-in, I generate baggage tags online as well. I also fill in the health declaration, as instructed by the Government of India, another mandate one needs to sign off on before finally getting the boarding pass.

AT THE AIRPORT

The safety gear has progressed to admit you into the airport. Earlier a copy of the ticket and identification worked. Now, the security workforces sit behind a glass partition to safeguard distance from passengers, and also scan your boarding pass bar code for a validity check. This slightly slows the process but it’s for our own safety and a good idea is to reach 2 hours prior to departure. I have booked a wheel chair for my grandmother and the IndiGo staff is all ready for it right at the entrance. The wheel chair is sanitised yet again in front of us which makes us feel more confident. There are several IndiGo personnel at the airport terminal, just that the new procedures make everything contactless, so I work things on my own while one of the kind ladies guides me through it.

My baggage tag and my boarding pass were tagged together to match via a barcode scanner at bag drop. I did not have to touch the machine; only official personnel did. I  put my bags on the belt myself, and immediately received an email and a text message from IndiGo informing me that my bags were collected along with the tracking number and we are right in time for a quick snack before we board the plane.

IN FLIGHT

At the boarding gate we are handed out our Passenger Safety Kit. On-board aircraft in India, it is a mandate to wear a face mask and a face shield.

The kit also includes a couple of sanitiser sachets for use on the flight. At the boarding gate, we scan in ourselves, rather than IndiGo’s gate representative scanning us in and giving it back. Another example of making sure that there is no contact between the representative and the passenger. Since grandmother is on the wheel chair, she gets to pre board and I get a little sneak peek into how well the IndiGo work force team sanitises the Lean Clean Flying Machine. I witness each seat and touchpoints on the plane being wiped down with Airbus-approved disinfectants, ensuring that passengers in this shared space are cautious not to have to touch anything that was not sanitised before the flight. What builds more confidence in me most about IndiGo is the powerful, in-built air filtration systems on all of its aircrafts which give assurance of the removal of viruses and bacteria. An incessant top to bottom air circulation cuts the jeopardy of cross-contamination. All the air in the cabin is fully filtered and refreshed every 2-3 minutes.
We took off soon after boarding and once airborne, the meal service began….what a flight without food after all? 
I have pre booked my parents and I Chicken Junglee sandwiches and a tomato and cucumber sandwich for my grandmother which came with a choice of drink. Though we took off our masks to eat, but kept the face shield on.
ARRIVING INTO UDAIPUR

Thankfully people adhered to IndiGo cabin crew’s constant announcements of wearing masks on and deplaning row by row. The wheel chair assistant is all ready for my grandmother and once bags are picked we que up for temperature checks and contacts noted before we head out to the city of Lakes. It was the first time we travelled as a family on a flight after the pandemic hit and we felt every bit safe with all the precaution that was being taken at the airport and by the IndiGo at every step of the way in terms of cleanliness and hygiene. The signature Lean Clean Flying Machine suits IndiGo very well. At the LeelaPalace Udaipur too where we stay, the hotel offers us a revised experience, but one is still wrapped in a warm welcome, even if the smiles are concealed by masks.


Thanks chiefly to moderately strict, movement directives, disinfecting measures and cluster congregation bounds applied by the Leela Group’s Suraksha programme, it is back to somewhat forthcoming normality. We feel safe, if sporadically surreal, but it does not take too long to enthral this ‘new normal’ into our holiday routing which includes purchasing tons of masks, sanitisers and sprays.

TIJARA FORT PALACE…..STEEPED IN HISTORY

 

It’s not every day you get to live in a Fort Palace. The four days at Tijara fuse into a haze of long, relaxing days. I swiftly blend into the Princess lifestyle and simple pleasures – sitting with a book in the open or lazing in the hammock near the poolside where I take in breath-taking views with every sip of my Masala Chai. It is sheer delight to unwind in such fashion.

A WARM WELCOME

We sweep up the hilly driveway, metres from sprawling green land. The smart doorman greets me at the entrance, makes me sanitize my hands and checks my temperature. Good first impressions? I would say they succeed. From my arrival in the grand foyer, filled with an old world charm and craftsmanship I am swept into another world. The ‘Kaanch Mahal’ adjacent to the lobby grabs my attention immediately and beckons me to stop by for lunch before I actually head up to my room (read palace). I am absolutely refreshed after a delicious Rajasthani meal of local vegetables and a light chicken curry! Tijara Fort Palace…now we are talking!

HISTORY

There’s a rare charisma about staying at a property, which has stories from the 19th century. This fortress non hotel is an unfinished brilliance of three structures, built in the Rajput-Afghan grace with initial colonial stimuli: the Mardana for the royal men, the Rani Mahal for the maharanis and a desire palace on the brink of a plateau, watching a water body called the Hawa Mahal, palace of winds. Thus staying here makes for a great weekend getaway as it offers the exclusive chance to wake up in a once incomplete and uninhibited palace that has now been tenderly reinstated and made into a dream. It makes you step back in time and carousal in the splendours and mysteries of the past.



FOOD


The acme of my sojourn here, apart from the character and the view, is absolutely the food. Lingering through a meal is one of the vital experiences here. Somehow we just remain longer over the same amount of food; the ever smiling restaurant staff seems in no hurry to whisk us out. Nothing can be more imperative than relishing one’s meal, they think at Neemrana’sTijara Fort Palace, and they do so correctly, I feel.

MOOD



Race for the top spot amid Delhi’s around town staycations is fierce, a continuous battle of one-upmanship as each vies to out-wow the others and shove the boundaries. Who knows what will come up with next, but for the time being Tijara Fort Palace must assuredly have the number one spot. Personally, they have me with the amazing culture blended in everything so beautifully! What a time to be alive!

MENU CARDS FROM DUBAI


My know how of Middle Eastern food was built on grilled chicken, mezze and shawarma back home in Delhi, my trip to Abu Dhabi and Spain, a country I frequent often and sampling Baklava in Toronto at my Grandma’s place. In analysis I ponder this worked in my favour because it meant that I arrived in Dubai with precisely no anticipations when it came to the food the first time round. I soon discover diverse cuisine restaurants in Dubai are a reminder of just how multicultural the city is.
TRULY DUBAI
With a visa on arrival for Indians, thanks to the Valid US Visa planning a trip to Dubai is a breeze. I am in Dubai in less than three and a half hours and Check in at the Shangri-La, on Sheikh Zayed Road perfect starting point from which to ascertain the city’s vibrant energy. While I will travel to inordinate distances for anything allied to food, it’s not every day I step an abra boat to do so. To get to the Souk El-Kabeer, one needs to get by boat across to the Dubai Creek. Spices and Dates are the core attraction. I absolutely enjoy this. It’s time for my reservation up above the sprawling city at At.mosphere at the Burj Khalifa.

A glass of champagne in hand, I cannot get over the implausible 360 night-time view of this dazzling, radiantly lit sight in front of me which ominously sets the ambiance for my evening ahead. For dinner, Ayamna at Atlantis, The palm comes highly recommended. The menu is robust on Lebanese staples and the indication is to build as you choose with a tiny help from the server. 
They do excellent kebabs, but I prefer ordering nibbling dishes for diversity and punch, from crispy falafels and Fattoush to Hummus and garlicky grilled chicken wings. My Arabian Night fantasy completes with watching the talented belly dancer perform at regular intervals.

MORE FOOD
I am in Dubai, so a ‘dekho’ of the Dubai Mall is a must not only for the shopping but also the Food & Beverage. I trust there are over a monstrous 160 outlets in the mall including my name sake Dean and Deluca. I spot Din Tai Fung housed in a chic ambience with stellar views. I am lucky to get a table within 10 minutes and soon am lapping up the signature Xiao long bao, when the hot, tasty broth reaches your palate buds you will comprehend what all the fuss is about.

My dinner is booked at ‘Noire’ at the Fairmont. I am here to experience, ‘dining in the dark’, and contradictory to the adage, ‘eyes eat first! Blinded from what I am eating, I rely more intensely than ever on my other senses. With the logic of touch, I cautiously pass my fingers over my plate. I fork up a serving and snuffle like a well-versed connoisseur. My taste was working overtime on trying to decipher the complex mix of flavours on my plate. I am appreciating the texture of my food even more. Every crumb seemed like a work of well-thought-out art. But what did I eat? Did I get any of it right? Maybe only bits of it. At the exit hall, the chef and his team reveal the dishes consumed in the dark. The menu changes every week to keep diners guessing!

LAST MEALS


The next day is Friday and also my last day but not without the Friday brunch, so I head to Hoi An, Vietnamese restaurant at Shangri-La. A sublime, crystal-clear beef pho, fragrant and flavourful, is what I begin with.  Vegetarian rice-paper summer rolls, with a suggestion of lemongrass, are subtle and refreshing. Soft-shell crab with salt and chilli is exactly as it should be, with apparent amounts of flavoursome, well-textured crab in a crunchy, tasty batter. Best part about the buffet, the food is brought a la carte style and tastes fresh and hot! 

I hear a lot about quality and quantity perfection at ‘Ribs & Brews’, an American style pub at the V Hotel , Al Habtoor city, so off I go for my last supper in Dubai…and order Carolina style ribs, smothered in a spicy barbecue sauce….decadent to the core! Interestingly, this dish made the cusp from cliché to clever global, drawing natives and expats alike. Probably thanks to its nifty presentation and mild fusion with the spice which you drink even with a Beer Shandy. Beer Shandy with spicy Ribs? Now that’s an idea to take home

ABU DHABI…. AN INCREDIBLE BLEND OF THE OLD WITH THE NEW

If you happen to be in Abu Dhabi for a day, I am sure you will extend your trip at least by two more!  This history-rich capital city of the UAE has the cultural richness which is most intriguing. It is amazing to absorb how well deep-rooted traditions can co-exist with contemporary sensibilities
A GOOD START
Holiday at Abu Dhabi had always been a musing of mine for as long as I can recall. I always desired to discover the Grand mosque, Sip Arabic coffee, Ravine on Machboos and Harees, and grip the marvels and characters of Abu Dhabi. So I set out with mother dear this Ramadan to undo the magical Islamic nation of Abu Dhabi on Business Class (travelling offseason has its advantages too) if you please and with Etihad Airways. The 3 1/2 hour flight from Delhi was very comfortable. Once off the plane, we sway rapidly through visa on arrival. Within a few minutes we reach the Ritz Carlton on Canal road, set against the Backdrop of the magnificent Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque.
The Ritz Carlton is a spectacular luxury five star resort, with design reminiscent of the Italian Renaissance. It has one enormously large pool which looks onto an expanse of reserved beach, as well as eight restaurants. No, it didn’t feel like one of those massive resorts which is tourist infested. It was calm, welcoming and hugely relaxing. We have a deluxe room with a large balcony overlooking the pool. It has a widespread spa which tumbles out onto the poolside with deals of gratis leg and foot massages!
SHEIKH ZAYED GRAND MOSQUE
I cannot recall if I have ever visited a mosque before, but I am confident this is my first time being in one of this calibre, easily the largest and most magnificent mosque in the country. I wear a salwar kameez with dupatta and my guide gives me an appreciative nod; it’s imperative to be clothed from head to toe while visiting the mosque.
Intensifying theatrically from primeval manicured gardens, the architecture here leaves me stunned. Greek marble walls adorned with glittering gemstones, creating subtle bloomy designs on the marble pillars; the beautiful pools, the prayer hall with the largest carpet in the world seven chandeliers, each made up of millions of Swarovski crystals have me mesmerized. Visiting times are Saturday-Thursday from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. The mosque is open for tourists from 4:30 to 11 p.m. on Fridays.

A DAY OUT AT FERRARI WORLD
Abu Dhabi is home to the world’s only Ferrari-branded theme park, and of course being a thrill seeker I simply had to go. On offer are a multitude of adrenaline-charged Ferrari-themed rides and lures that got my blood pumping, It’s ingenious that the theme park is indoors, bearing in mind how hot it can get in Abu Dhabi. Ferrari World is the largest indoor theme park in the world and houses the world’s fastest roller coaster, Formula Rossa.
I am bit nervous seeing the loops, so I skip it. I guess if I did ride the Formula Rossa though, I probably would have loved it. Fast-tracking from 0–240km/h in 4.9 seconds, as close to a real F1 experience as most of us will get. I love the Interactive 4D family adventures, it’s like being the hero yourself!
For lunch we stop at ‘Mama Rossa’. As the name implies, the restaurant gets back to basics with simple Italian dishes that highlight their quality ingredients. Classic luscious carbonaras, pizzas with perfect crusts … Mama Mia!
FANCY A FALCON HOSPITAL?
You cannot visit Abu Dhabi and not go see the falcons. Acknowledged for handling thousands of birds each year, this one of a kind hospital is spread in an enormous area and has everything right from an ICU, X-rays departments, ophthalmology centre and more. On arrival, at the hospital, I am warmly welcomed by chivalrous staff with these regal birds of prey perched on their arm. On course of the tour, I learn about the importance of falcons in Emirati culture, as well as the vital caretaking prerequisites of the beautiful birds.

A truthfully gratifying experience awaits me at the end; the honour of having a captivating falcon perched on my arm. And by the way, these falcons have personal passports too!



FAST FACTS
Best way to Reach: Fly Etihad Airways
Visa: If you hold a valid US Visa, you can get visa on arrival
Best Place to stay: Ritz Carlton on Canal Road, for its location

HIGH ON BURMESE- THINGYAN BURMESE NEW YEAR CELEBRATIONS AT BURMA BURMA


Burma Burma not only records tremendously soaring on pleasure points owing to its decadent ambience & service but it should be straightaway on your must-eat-at ranking even if you are a scrounger by nature. The Thingyan Menu is on for just a limited time and I would say don't miss it for the World! 



This the best spot in town, to try out good Burmese vegetarian flavors. It is definitely a paradise for vegetarians, though it doesn’t fail to impress the other tarians as well. The restaurant is large in size and is characterized by traditional Burmese art. The vibrant interiors and the fluorescent lighting give this tearoom and restaurant an edge above the rest. Burma Burma serves up a good blend, of flavorful soups, spicy salads and delicious noodle items. The distinct flavors that come out while experiencing this type of cuisine include spice, brine, fermentation, the usage of fresh herbs and nuttiness. Not many people are aware but tea plays a crucial role in Burmese cuisine, whether savoring it in its regular form, or pickling and preserving the leaves (laphet) to be used in salads. I recently visited Burma Burma to try out the Thingyan Menu,  
Thingyan symbolises the Burmese New Year, and here I get an idea of the dishes prepared during this  time. Reccomendations go all out for the Pumpkin and Basil soup.. a must try on this special menu, it is well balanced, has the correct amount of spice, and leaves you with a little tangy note, and the basil compliments the pumpkin extremely well. Another star dish on the menu are the Crunchy Tofu Steamed Buns, the tofu is crumb fried and is stuffed in a delicious soft steam bun, which melts in your mouth with each bite. The salads are very impressive too; the two, which stand out for me, are the guava (Mala Ka Pin Thoke) this was guava tossed with crushed peanuts, red chilly and brown onions and the rainbow salad (Le Thok Sun), four varieties of noodles tossed with spring vegetables in a nice tamarind and soy dressing, they each had there own unique flavors and were simply delicious to eat. The Thingyan Menu also features decadent desserts; the matcha ice cream and the coconut ice cream with black sticky rice are new entries and are definitely worth trying. This restaurant never fails to impress and is truly a crowd favourite.

THE HAVELI HARI GANGA - A HERITAGE HOTEL IN THE LAP OF GANGA


My first moments in Haridwar were spent absorbing the sights from a rickshaw that picked me up from the railway station. I have got to admit, when I arrived in Haridwar, I wasn’t smitten like I am by so many other places. I fell hard for Haveli Hari Ganga, Haridwar!
There are some places that just pull you in – and Haveli Hari Ganga, Haridwar was that for me. The people, with their wide smiles and positive spirit, welcomed in a way that Hints of a rich culture could be found all over this Heritage property.
The Haveli faces the Ganga, and although you would swear you are off the beaten path, it’s just a short walk to Har Ki Pauri with more shops and small eateries than you can count. The rooms are spacious and have beautiful traditional touches.
It is unquestionably worth shelling out a little more for a Ganges View Suite room, with a cheerful sit out overlooking the river. Sipping morning tea in the balcony overlooking the holy Ganga in all its grace seems like worship in itself. The Superior rooms come with expansive living areas, with some of them opening towards the temple in the courtyard or colossal mountains of Haridwar.

EARLY MORNING BE LIKE
Okay, confession time. I am NOT really a morning person and especially not on Holidays (needless to add on work days, I certainly am very punctual which is a given for any person in the hospitality trade); and a Nature walk before the sun is up never sounds alluring to me. But the walk I do with the guide organized by the Haveli astounds me and makes me think, I should do this more often ( that’s something I keep saying to myself each time I do a morning walk). It was a pleasant walk all over the little town with not many people in sight. The Haveli also organizes Hiking trails for those interested.
FOOD
Prior to my trip to Haridwar I did not have much experience with Hindu Temple cuisine apart from the occasional Halwa & Puri, my grandmother makes during Navratri. But on this trip I did learn! The walk also includes a stop at the traditional market where we are able to check out the local fruits and vegetables. Pumpkin and potatoes are in abundance! Small eateries offering temple food occupy nearly every block, and you can’t walk far without almost bumping into people in the narrow alleyways. The landscape shifts flawlessly from quiet to a hustle and bustle. And the food -- with options from vegetarian to traditional Temple fare -- is as diverse as my cravings.
Haridwar is known for its amazing street food, and the best bites I have are from unassuming shops with plastic chairs.  Absolute must tries include the ‘Khasta Kachori’, ‘Samosa Chole’ and ‘Semolina Halwa’ from Mohan Ji Puri Waale.  Then there is the ‘Chotiwala’ which has been around for many years offering even Desi Chinese now, but I’d stay stick to the Indian when In Haridwar. But the highlight for me is all meal times at the Haveli Hari Ganga. Simple & homely food with the perfect amount of Oils & Desi Ghee used. The Lunch thali is exceptional as are the breakfast and dinner buffets with emphasis on freshness and seasonal produce. They also do a few continental and Asian dishes at dinner which can give any Non Vegetarian food run for its money.

TRANQUILITY
Sample this…. golden echo of thousands of floral diyas in the River Ganges! Trust me it is the most enthralling panorama that you get to observe during the Ganga aarti ceremony at the ghat. And imagine I can actually witness this fascinating scene right from the sitting area of my suite.
Next morning I book myself for a Spa which revitalizes me like never before, have the decadent thali for lunch one last time, buy some ganga water to carry back home and soon it’s time for the evening Shatabadi… I have to come back to relive in this tranquility at the Haveli Hari Ganga…at least one more time!

The Haveli Hari Ganga also has its private bathing Ghat


HISTORICAL FACT
Built in 1913 for the personal guests of the royal family, this Haridwar hotel was the personal residence of Maharaja of Pilibhit which now serves as the perfect hideaway for devotees visiting Haridwar. The tranquil river and hill views on one side, and the mesmerizing maelstrom of central Haridwar on the other will certainly complement your stay in Haridwar.

LIVING IT UP IN STYLE AT THE HYATT REGENCY LUCKNOW

Lucknow is a bustling city and one of the most popular destinations In India for its food. The city offers unique historical monuments, culture and great food to satisfy all palates! The streets are colorful, captivating and at times, completely overwhelming.
Standing tall and serene amidst all the chaos is the Hyatt Regency Lucknow. This reliable hotel provides a calm retreat and is a great choice for families looking for some home comforts.
ACCOMMODATION
Just a quick turn in the corporate hub of Vibhuti Khand, transports you into a lush paradise. We (Grandma, Dad & Mom) arrive late afternoon and I am super happy to enter the hotel lobby, which is very beautiful. 
Love the welcome !!

After check-in we are brought to our room. Excuse me, did I say room?  I mean a mini apartment. Our home for the next four days comprises of a suite with a master bedroom and another bedroom with a bathroom which are interconnected, pretty much breath-taking, spotless clean and extremely comfortable. 

When I walk in, the first thing I see is a bunch of welcome goodies that puts me in a good mood. Looking in a little further I notice a giant living room, with a bigger flat screen LCD television, two couches with plenty of comfy pillows, a guest Powder Room that is connected to the living room and this is great for those of you who have friends over and do not wish to share your bathroom and a study that offers more than we need.



Adjacent to which is the master bedroom that sits behind two sliding doors. Needless to say, there are flat-screen TV in the bedrooms so there is no reason to leave the bed unless you really have to. The bathroom design is well-appointed and bright and oh so classy! There is a huge bathtub and a shower with a glass door. Something worth mentioning is that there is a giant closet (read walk in) in the suite so I can really stack up all of my things because I own so many. (Just kidding!). There is something about the accommodation I realize from the second I had enter the door. The fragrance... Everything smells so incredibly fresh and good. The towels, the bed sheets, the pillows, the shower gel, it is addictive; It is extraordinary!

REJUVINATE
The Hotel makes fitness extremely rewarding for its guests with its state of the art fitness centre and a refreshing view of the swimming pool. Three massage rooms manned by professional trainers…it’s all there and the Siddh is the only Spa in Lucknow in a 5 Star hotel.



The Spa uses ingredients which revitalise the face and body and Work with your skin to deliver outstanding results. I try a Siddh-Spa special massage and the soft and gentle strokes put me into a passive snooze, a reason why this massage is mainly useful for those who find it tough to shut eye ( though of course I have no such problem, I can sleep just about anywhere).

KHAANA PEENA
The restaurants and bar congregate at first floor and provide an unmatched meal experience.


It houses ‘LukJin’ a sumptuous Chinese Thai cuisine restaurant where the exotic cuisine compliments the exotic ambience. For breakfast my popular haunt is ‘Rocca’, which is conceptualized as an open and airy place with a lot of natural lighting. The clean lines and the minimalism reflect the simplicity of its structure and form. It sure is a balmy strip of foodie fun and the Buffet with its many counters add a measure of gustatory refinement.


There couldn’t have been a more peaceful retreat than ‘UP’s’ Bar offering a host of exciting drinks to choose from….my favourite being the ‘Bareily Ka Jhumka’ ….and I have two of those, as not only do I like the taste, but also want the pair ( they give one jhumka with a drink)! And yes there is the ‘Market’ to grab and go if you are in a hurry…. (As for me I am on a holiday…so don’t use this one)

REGENCY CLUB
The Regency is exclusively designed for the comfort of guests staying in the Regency Club Rooms & Suites. Being a suite guest I am entitled to access this area, which proves as the ideal setting for our evening tea. A Regency club guest also gets privileges like exclusive access to the Club Lounge, where one can enjoy a complimentary breakfast each morning, cocktails in the evening, and hot beverage service throughout the day.
SO LONG FAREWELL, I HATE TO SAY GOODBYE
There is so much more I could say about the Hyatt Regency Lucknow but most important four days were not enough!! It was overwhelming in a positive way. A first class hotel for those who just want to relax in beautiful designed place and explore Lucknow the way it is meant to be….( food and chickan). 
The famed Makhan Malai of lucknow...try the one at the Chowk...a winter special
The staff is amazing, friendly and welcoming; it seems they clearly love to work there. Well who wouldn’t in such a lovely environment?  I leave relaxed, with a big fat smile and still thinking back about the fantastic times I spent there. Thanks to the wonderful staff for these memorable days at the Hyatt Regency Lucknow.
