Happy Thai, Atria Mall
Believing in the old saying ‘You are never too old to play Board Games’, ‘B’ wing
had the event co-ordinator’s Gamisthan to organize the traditional quiz and tambola
with a new modern twist.
Members were divided into 5 teams. Three games were played with a lot of noise,
proof of their enjoyment. The rules allowed them to scream, fight, nudge and cheat
– basically every ingredient to let out steam and have fun with their girlfriends.
Cleverly planned games like Tumbling Dice, Housie with a twist and the Crazy Quiz
with riddles, were played amidst lots of laughter and girlish camaraderie.
All this energy HAD to be replenished with tasty starters served by the Happy Thai
staff – Paneer Stay, Sushi of various types, Papaya Salad etc etc etc.
Mains included Penang Curry, Thai Chilli Lotus Root, Water Chestnuts in a delectable
sauce served with noodles and burnt garlic rice. Chocolate Ice-cream and Cheesecake
completed an exhilarating afternoon of food and fun with friends.

‘C’ Wing – Treasure Hunt
10th January 2020
Fab India @ Kala Ghoda to Punjab Grill
‘C’ wing’s innovative ideas always make their meetings special!
Teams were formed on the wings WhatsApp group. Each group was given a dress code
and the enthusiastic members dressed up as ‘Mumbai chi Mulgis’, ‘Dabbawallas’, ‘Mumbai
Indians Cricketers’ and ‘Local Train Passengers’, ‘Bollywood Stars’, ‘Marathoners’
and just ‘Bumbai ki Taporis’.
After a sumptuous breakfast at Fab India, the youngsters started on foot in their
various teams.
Folks on the streets of Kalaghoda stared wide-eyed at this strange assortment of
pretty ladies dressed in their different attires. The Committee wore floppy black
hats with black tees and denim or black skirts – each one looking very chic. The
Dabbawallas, Cricketers, Taporis, were all appropriately dressed. It was a motley
crowd of enthusiastic youngsters in fancy dress.
Each team ran helter-skelter collecting their clues - articles, pictures and videos
required for winning.
After a tiring and hectic two hours of roaming the streets, the tired members assembled
at Punjab Grill, to be marked and win their awards.
Then of course they dug into the sit-down lunch on offer, breakfast having been
long digested.
The photos below tell the whole story, better than words.
