Mysore
I have been to Mysore 4 times in the past 8 months. Here are some of the places I visited.
Cafes & Restaurants
Malgudi Cafe - Nice ambience. Food is ok. Usually not very crowded. Generally quiet enough that you can read a book. Good for a short stop.
Sapa bakery - Fancy. But worth checking out.
Poojari fish land - Just before mysore. Good for a lunch stop. We have gone here twice. Good fish.
Mulbagal Dosa - Good dosa. Great parking.
Old house - Pure veg restaurant. Really good food. Must visit.
The Elephant Bar - Its USP is that it is located inside the Brindavana Gardens. Reservation is required in advance so that the Brindavana Gardens security lets you in.
Attractions
Mysore Zoo - One of the best zoos in India. This place is a must visit if you are traveling with a kid.
R K Narayan’s house - as the name suggests. Worth visiting to review the Malgudi days nostalgia.
Jaganmohan Palace Art Museum - Home of the Glow of Hope. Decent collection of paintings.
Chamundeshwari Temple - Scenic drive to the top of the mountain. Ample parking at the top. Good views of Mysore palace from the view point along the way.
Hotels
The Village - Decent hotel. Good restaurant. Excellent breakfast.

We were to go to Lalbagh with a friend and his family...

Reading Habit
My monkey brain is in overdrive when I am alone. I can’t read. I can’t write. I can’t watch an entire movie. I can’t code. Well this is all I can do when I can. There is not much else to me. I used to think that I am a reader. I haven’t completed a book in years. I have purchased and abandoned countless books. Tsundoku, the Japanese word, was coined for me. I feel terrible. I can’t live up to thi...
