Kitchen and Home Making

One day me(Pradeep - sri's SH) and my wife decided to go out for a long run shopping to Parry’s corner at Chennai. We actually planned to go for buying fancy (covering) bangles available at sowcarpet, NSC  Bose Road. We reached and we spent our 3 hours of time to roam in the NSC Bose road, its really fantastic to go for it. We nearly travelled 50 kms in our bike (Beach road) to reach parry’s corner. Sowcarpet is just a small (non south India) north India particularly the Mint street. There are so many shops to purchase sarees, chudi, salwar, etc. Like in north India, we need to bargain to buy sarees. During the noon, pani puri, samosa, kachodi, etc is available in the streets. Above: A Saree Shop Above: Mint Street Above: Mint Street After a visit of more than 2 hours, my wife purchased four set of bangles and satisfied.
