I like the 'Whenever, Wherever' track by Shakira. And I liked Suerte (the original number), performed by two lovely women from Colombia (they call their band 'Escape'), even more..

As they stirred the floor at the Zara Tapas bar on Cathedral Road, their graceful gyrations the Latino way - tweaked the Tuesday evening's tempo up. Gracias Señoritas !

Torridora time !

The chilled Bacardi-based Torridora with just the right amount of cream was tempting, served as it was, in a Martini glass. Roasted cashew with lime - I couldn't believe I was enjoying it. Would make Ma happy.

And even something as bland as potato fingers had my mouth watering, thanks to the Mediterranean sauce. You know what its like when you like your cocktail so much that you just wanna swallow it in one huge gulp. Their 'Grape Escape' gets the best out of fresh grape, brandy, sparkling wine and crushed ice. Didn't Ulysses dream of drinking Life to the lees ? Salut !

Puyal: Their logo is really impressive. I guess there's a story for everything !

Mammo: Thanks Dude. I know this space revives memories. Hope Harvard's treating you well enough to get you dishing out your 'Live life to the lees' explanation to fortunate others.
