Affordability: 4.5; Hygiene: 4; Portion size: 5; Variety: 4.5; Taste: 3.8 Place: Hyderabad, near Himayat nagar Experience: We happened to visit this small outlet and were absolutely awed by the exclusive varieties of egg dishes offered. I love eggs and was curious when we saw this outlet on our way back home. Being food lovers, we decided to give this place a try. We were confused when we looked at the menu as there were truly 150 varieties from soups and starters to main course! There was the typical Manchow soup and then the Egg version of it. After a lot of deliberation, we decided to order one egg charcoal and 1 by 2 egg manchow soup. Our order arrived in 10 minutes. I did not like the look of my soup and was almost regretting ordering it.  But when I had my first sip, I was delighted. The soup was heavenly. The portion size was bang on. Even after ordering 1/2, we

Blend It Raw Apothecary Rose Mist, Basil Mist / Toner | Review | Brand Awareness series #2

Hey guys,  Today I am going to share my review on yet another Indian Brand " Blend It Raw Apothecary" founded by Aarushi . The brand started with  organic essential oils and cold-pressed unrefined carrier oils, but later expanded its range to include unrefined clays, pure floral waters (hydrosols), waxes, & fruit, and plant butters which are all ethically sourced from small farmers, NGOs, certified organic manufacturers and suppliers.  (You will be making a social contribution while buying your skin care products!) I love this brand for some DIY recipes which I can create for my skin care and also, for its amazing mists/toners/hydrosols. Let's talk about Hydrosols :  Hydrosols are distilled water used for aroma-therapeutic purposes. These hydrosols act like toners but are more effective than our usual toners. I mean a Rose Hydrosol is more effective than a rose toner.:) I love the overall concept of these Hydrosols. MRP: 400 INR each Shelf l
