The Junction - Hauz Khaz /Green Park, New Delhi

I was recently invited for a meet and greet program at this new place The Junction, which is owned and operated by Mr. Umang Tewari. The USP of the place is location.The location is absolutely brilliant. Bang on the main Aurobindo Marg, near the Metro Station and in the heart of the Green Park and Hauz Khaz hubs.

You enter this place, and the first thing you think is 'how beautiful.' The 20,000 sq. ft. the area has been wonderfully done up with modern art and snappy colors. You hardly get to see so much outdoor space in Delhi food hotspots. They have divided the whole place in several short eateries like the bakery (The Big Baker), the Pizzeria, Sushi Place, The Bar, Potet etc. The story is all good until you get to the service. It does not lack in courtesy but speed. The food is good but then looking at such lush ambiance your expectations automatically go up. What I had was mostly Indian and it was good especially the chutney fish. Go for nice relaxed evenings with friends and families. Would definitely recommend the dim sum. And the mocktails. I tried a few and all were superb! Sharing some pictures.

Oh! how can I forget the lovely people I met. Food bloggers and reviewers active on various social media. Good food becomes so much better when you have the company which loves food as much as you do.

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...
