Orion Mall Bengaluru

Finished meeting at the Vivanta Taj Yeshwantpur. Lightning grab for family gifts by my colleague A before jetting out on SIA at 11pm. Our host who drove us around the sardine flotsam traffic took us to the Orion Mall. A shopped till drop. A drawing screen for son. How to do business books in India. Kid's cloths at the GAP. Easy parking with color coded lights for vacant parking. Helpful shopping assisstants. Worldwide branded outlets. Food, retail all here.A nice oasis from the maddening throng of  Tumkur Highway. Nice to stretch the legs after a day long meeting. It started with a business breakfast in the Palette restaurran. A visit to People Tree across the road. Followed by a meeting in the Vivanta Taj Courtyard. Then lunch at the Palette restaurant. Followed by a visit to Prakriya. Then debrief in the couryard of the hotel again. Before heading to the air conditioned blanket of Orion Mall and shopping therapy.
