Did You Ever Love Me? Book Review: Can Rithvik singh turn heartbreak into a homecoming?

Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given? Not merely whether they loved you, but whether they ever noticed how much you loved them, how much patience you offered, how many small things you remembered, or how often you chose to stay when leaving might have been easier. There is a particular loneliness in that question because it rarely arrives at a dramatic moment. More often, it finds you while you are doing something completely ordinary. Yo...

Too Indian - Vishal Enclave - West Delhi

Too Indian at Vishal Enclave is located right opposite the TDI Mall and quite close to the Rajouri Garden Metro station. It has opened doors recently and is already gaining a lot of traction and popularity. It blends in a retail plus food concept, offering some unique products on sale along with sumptuous food.



I visited the place on a hot Saturday afternoon, to find the place bustling with people. The space is large and the seating very well arranged. The staff is very well acquainted with the food and are good at service. Here is what I ordered and how it was  -

Beverages - 

Do try the Nutella Shake  (the name says it all) - Your nutella shake is generously topped up with whipped cream, flavored confectionary, and chocolates.


The Anarkali is a mocktail which came in a tall LIIT glasses and reminded me that this place doesn;t serve liquor. Yet. But the mocktail was great.

Here is something to Taco About - I loved the presentation of this one. The tacos are rolled into cones and baked. Then filled with butter paneer.

Indo- Persian Kebab - Lamb Kebabs nicely wrapped in roomali rotis and served in a book. Yes. Little less spicy for the 'mirchi seekers'. But mild enough for me.

Painters Canvas - The dish really resembled a water color paint plate. It has five different dips for panko fried Amritsari Fish.



Chick Popcorn - One of the best starters on the menu, an ultimate snack for leisure, this is crispy fried chicken, generously topped with Chef's spice mix which made the fried chicken ' too Indian'.

Main Course

Chur Chur Naan - Flaky and crisp

Palak Paneer Ravioli - We grew up on Palak Paneer but Too Indian, packs up the cottage cheese, Ravioli Style.

Home Style Chicken Curry - Your routine chicken dish with no complaints at all.


Desserts

Daulat ki Chaat - It is one dish I would definitely recommend everyone to try once. It seeks inspiration from the famous Daulat ki Chaat of Chandni Chowk Delhi and serves up a foamy creamy 'milk malai' which is as light as air.


Milk Cake Pie - A blissful slice of the favorite Indian sweet presented in a western style pie.



A good place to shop, party, eat, catch up with friends and have some great leisure time. They also have buttons to beckon the service staff at the tables. Just like they have it on air planes. Just another example to show how thoughtful the makers of the place have been in setting up a unique and interesting concept.

Inspector Sharma-India salutes you

Its a sad day for the nation as it bids the final farewell to Delhi police inspector Mohan Chand Sharma. He died on Friday in an encounter with the terrorists who were involved in the Delhi bomb blasts. The nation could've rejoiced today with the successful operation of killing 2 terrorists and nabbing one, if not for the painful loss of this brave soul. He was the first one to enter the building where the terrorists were said to be hiding. Just think of the courage displayed by this man in the hour of need. As he knocked on the door, he heard some commotion going on inside. So he went inside through another door and was shot at. His team members swung into action after this and it was all over in the blink of an eye. Though he was taken to the hospital, Sharma succumbed to his injuries soon. He was a tough cop who has taken part in many successful encounters and brought laurels to the Delhi police force, but sadly this one proved his last. The terrorists who were killed were not m...

Satyameva Jayate - Free speech

More than 40 people have died in the riots that have followed the killing of Swami Lakshmanananda in Kandhamal in Orissa. 5 people were killed and 47 injured in Mumbai when Jerry Falwell made some comments saying that the Prophet of Islam was a violent man and a terrorist. 12 people had died in Mumbai in anti-rushdie riots. There are more instances I can point out, but these stand out because of the scale and because of how related India is to last two people. Mr. Falwell runs a Christian ministry in US and Salman Rushdie, although ethically an Indian, had migrated to Pakistan and was a citizen of UK at that time. Of all riots that took place all over the world following the statement by Jerry Falwell and against Salman Rushdie, India was the only place with causalities. Orissa has been a hotbed of communal tensions between Hindus and Christians for a while now. India is the largest democracy which is more than 60 years old. Why then are we so undemocratic in our conduct? I will not sa...
