muse
Hopped around town in search of John Grisham's new book, Skipping Christmas - and dredged up only two copies; after hitting three book stores. It says something both about how little attention his recent books have earned and about how well stocked the better bookshops in Hyderabad are! His last book, Bleachers, was again a-typical of his genre, but an interesting read nevertheless.
Was hoping to make this book the thank-you-gifts for the team that organised the company Christmas party at the Taj Krishna last Saturday - but it seems unlikely we'll get enough copies before I'm off.
Dined at Just Oriental (imaginatively abbreviated to JO) - a spanking new restaurant in Banjara Hills, Road No. 12 (so new, they don't accept credit cards yet!). Robert, the maitre de is not shy about recommended his favourites, and the liberal use of spice goes down well with people sharing my kind of palate. The "steamed" rice is shudh basmati, which does give the dishes an interesting flavour!
