Traverseing Pune Projectile - Part 1 -

The first outing nearby Pune was enough to make me intoxicated.As usuall it was a sudden plan charted out. Best part of Being in Pune is the climate is soothing almost all year around.

The first place to visit was Shirgaon ! A complete replica of Sai Baba Temple at shirdi !Its around 30 km from Pune.The best part is its on the Old Mumbai Pune highway ! The entire course is  very resplendent - blossoming with agglomeration of Orange and yellow cosmos.After I entered the temple I could identify ,The temple has 3 sections , the courtyard , The Main shrine and the Palace for Food and stay.

I dont know whether its my name or I amseriously Lucky coz the time we reached the Sai temple it was almost   12:30 and Aarti had just begun.It was simply Gargantuan to be part of the holistic benediction.After almost 45 minutes of subconscious capitulate , We decided to move on to our next stop for luncheon.

We heard of the most talked about "Tony Da dhaba"...!! It was just 10 - 15 km from the shirgaon location!The most intresting observation for this food stop was they serve australian EMU turkey ,duck etc which are quite a rare delicacy!!

My heart was aching for "Emu Tikka " but then I had to drop the thought coz I was getting referred to as Rapacious person ! I still regret for not having tasting that !I remember in chennai I had tasted almost all of the marine Delicacies starting from Squid to baby sharks !!

I am hoping the next time I go there , I will definitely have a sneak peak of tasting the bird.But for now I had to satisfy my hunger with the same old Desi chicken menu.As per the hype , the food served in Dhaba was not as per my expectation. The Prawn was disgusting.The only thing I loved over there was Sweet Lassi.Too yum for my almost dying to death Taste buds!!

I must say , the only thing people go there is for ambience , n to savour the unique Australian birds!!On the stretched way from Mumbai to Pune , this is one place where u can hang up!! but with Expectations confined!! It is not as par with the Punjabi dhaba which make u feel content with food!!I

We had Paan , sweet one as a happy conclusion to the expedition.

The return trip was tiring coz of Scorching Heat !!

The Day was Over whelming and indeed the Trip was one of the beautiful memories , I will keep cherished!! I will definitely try to visit the dhaba again , coz of the phenomenon happening to me as "EMU Calling"
