• Indigo Deli, Colaba – a slice of breakfast heaven!

    When a friend suggested that I get up early one Sunday morning and drive down to ‘Indigo Deli’ in Colaba for breakfast, I was skeptical.

I got shot 8 times and lived to tell the tale. One can probably never say that in real life…. But with Paint ball all is possible!!

Paint ball is a relatively new phenomenon in India, so some of you might not know what it really is… for those who do know, please skip the next para!

Paint ball is a simulated battle game. Participants are divided into warring teams, given some armour (as in paintball proof vests), face masks, guns and some ammo (as in pellets made of paint). The paint bullets are organic, washable and edible (though please More >
