We always have the option of malls. Food court at nucleus mall is deserted, ideal for us.
+1 to what you said Naveen. I really like the food court at Nucleus. The place is always deserted and quiet. We can sit there for hours.

Yep Naveen/Jose thats a good spot for express meets (During lunch hours). Next Month I may not be available on Sundays. You guys know the reason why .

Saturday evening(11th, 18th) will be fine for me.

Incase of rains, probably what sunney had informed earlier I too dont mind sitting on Mercy rooftop or @ Highway gardens lawn(Covered) .

Hoping to meet more senior BHPians (JK / BHP_maniac) & newbies (Dhanush/Speed.demons)in coming months.

Alex, driving to Mercy on day time is sheer waste of fuel and time. Its better to go for some other places like Nucleus. If its deserted most of the time then its our best place to sip a coffee within 2-3 hours. Only thing is its little more far than the other places like GS, Oberon etc.

BTW, hope your Velankanni / Kodai trip was a success, we have cut short the trip as some of the ladies were against the Kodai trip after the long journey. My stomach was got upset and was in hospital on Monday due to food poisoning. What a memorable trip was it

Not necessary that we need to drive till Mercy, u can park ur vehicle @ palarivattom, Hop into the famous private red bus and land directly at mercy's footsteps. (No wonder why people like mercy a lot).
Caution: Somethings dont mix very well. So I always prefer to take local transport on such occasions.

Trip was fine...I couldnt visit all the places in Kodai due to lack of time. Did you had food from the same hotel where we met in the evening ?
Do keep pudin hara tabs in hand when you sense some sort of discomfort after eating food from outside . Take rest buddy and hope to see you soon in quick meets.

re: Quick mini-meet(s) in Kochi (Cochin)

@Alex - I dont mind going anywhere as long as the place isnt crowded. Nucleus would be ideal since I went to the food court few days back and it was deserted especially during weekdays (lunchtime).

Yes, know the reason behind your unavailability on Sundays

Hope you got to click some pics of your trip.

@ Sajan - Yep, a bit far when compared to GS and Ob but it's worth since the place is deserted. Also a bit of shopping possible here LOL.

Hope you are doing well after your engine cleanup LOL. Take care.!

Yeah we had food from the same restaurant but that was Ok, we had a quick visit to Pazhani for one of our friends and had a light dinner from Balaji Restaurant which was seems to be hygienic. After that only my bowl started irritating

re: Quick mini-meet(s) in Kochi (Cochin)

Good to see a lot of activity here. I would like to join up for the meet too. I am ready on any weekend other than the first one cos i have some personal engagements.
And yes rightly said Nucleus mall is deserted on weekdays but not quite so on weekends.

Will follow this thread now. very happy indeed.

Good to hear that you are free during weekends. More new guys are planning to come after June 7th. So we decided to meet after that.

Just watch this thread for updates. Will be updating the time and venue in the coming days.
