Remembering MJ

Post a long day of mindless travel (because we never made it to two of the destinations on the itinerary), I ended up in a cosy little lounge bar called Moet’s in Defence Colony, Delhi. The food was yum (lamb shanks, Lebanese kebabs ‘n’ more tenderloin lamb), the mojito did not have obscene amounts of sugar, and the ambience was the kind that allows you to hear yourself think.

The DJ was spinning his tracks in a corner. We reminisced about MJ, and how we felt that DJs ought to be spinning tracks by the king, and bingo, a track from Dangerous started playing. The timing was surreal. We reminisced some more, and eventually got the cheque. We paid up. And as we got up to leave, the DJ moved on to Hotel California. The timing was surreal.

On a different note, I recommend Moet’s to all lounge lovers. It’s better than Zenzi’s and Shiro’s, and lightyears ahead of Capitol, a disco at The Ashok Hotel. And yes, every placed I have ever partied it in Las Vegas as compared to Elevate. By the way, I also recommend ‘The Hangover’. It’s both funny and clever (thought sometimes borderline gross). The humour isn’t slapstick, which was a relief.
