Jhakkaas - Punjabi Bagh Market, Delhi

Punjabi Bagh's main market is quite a nerve center being a major activity hub for the plush residential colony. It is here that McDonald's opened in its first expansion phases. Jhakkas is an encroachment on a pavement on the main road. It serves lip smacking Pav Bhaji which is in literal terms talk of the town.





They key to a good Bhaji is that it should be cooked really well. You got to keep it simmering. Jhakkaas does that to perfection. The addition of dollops of butter brings in the desired flavor. They serve it with green mint chutney which does not happen everywhere. It adds to that street food vibe you are looking at.

I tried both Veg butter tadka pav bhaji and veg butter masala pav bhaji. The only difference between the both is that the latter will have a spread of red chili paste on the pav buns. You can try it if you like it spicier. Otherwise, go with the former.

These are the two most selling items but they have other food on the menu like the Dabeli which you can try if want to have something other than Pav Bhaji

Press 9 for a Crime by Shailendra Jha— Can a family fight a scam empire?

I read Shailendra Jha’s Press 9 for a Crime with my late-night lamp on; it’s a razor-sharp, humane thriller set between East Delhi and scam hubs in Southeast Asia . Fast, funny, and disturbingly real, it follows Aseem’s risky rescue of his missing brother. This review analyses theme, craft, character work and why the book both alarms and entertains and lingers. Why did this book grab me at once? Have you ever opened a book at midnight because the world outside felt suddenly less interesting than the danger on the page? That was me with Press 9 for a Crime . As someone who reads a lot of thrillers, believable stakes, and characters I care about. Jha gives me both within the first ten pages. The opening scenes place you in a cramped East Delhi neighbourhood and you instantly feel the hum of small-town hopes: the son who promises escape through a “job in Bangkok”, the ledger of family debts, the refrigerator light in a kitchen where dreams are rationed. Jha’s background in journa...

The Price of Genius by Binit Priyaranjan Book Review: What Does India's Chess Revolution Truly Cost?

 India's rise from producing an occasional chess genius to becoming a global powerhouse is one of modern sport's most compelling stories. The Price of Genius by Binit Priyaranjan looks beyond trophies and headlines to reveal the families, coaches, failures, philosophy, and relentless pursuit that shape champions. This review examines where the book shines, where it stumbles, and why it deserves attention beyond the chess community. Have you ever Wondered What It Costs to Raise a Genius? Every generation inherits a comforting myth about greatness. We tell ourselves that prodigies are born with something the rest of us simply do not possess. A Mozart sits at a piano before he can properly write his own name. A Tendulkar seems destined to hold a cricket bat. A Viswanathan Anand appears to calculate combinations with supernatural ease. These stories reassure us because they reduce excellence to destiny. If genius is a gift bestowed upon a fortunate few, then the rest of us are sp...
