"IIT ki Ice-Tea"...Cheers

I consider IIT-D (Indian Institute of Tech, Delhi) campus apt for genius creations as it provides a great ambience for exceptional acumen skills. A part from being one of the major landmarks for Engg, IITD also acts as a heaven for thoughts. Inspite of its location (prime South Delhi), you can make out the massive difference in atmospheric noise b/t outside n inside campus.

As you enter, you encounter a tall cum mighty wide building (somewhat like the UN building in Geneva). 5 min walk from the main gate amidst some majestic architecture and grass painted lawns, the institution has its canteen. Adjacent to the canteen, lies the Nescafe…the provider of Ice-Tea…thanks to Neel for introducing IIT ki Ice-Tea to me.

With ample sitting space (USP of the whole experience), chop down prizes and availability of silence, it’s a place to calm down. The mood sets up the mind to think and being in IIT, its influence comes in your thoughts too…suddenly those wasteful incomplete thoughts find the missing solutions and bang!! rationality is achieved to satisfaction. The ‘round-tables’ design of the eating joint itself promotes debating...convenient for gossiping...lol.

But this calm place is too being corrupted by the ‘couple’ culture, another consequence of our ever increasing population syndrome. GOSH, this is the condition when IIT D lies adjacent to Rose Garden, Deer Park and PVR-Priya cineplex..
Also, the place can have its toll on you sometimes as you may encounter IITians having a discussion on fat pay-packets.

Lastly, some words about the ‘Ice-Tea’ itself. It comes in two flavours: Apple n Lemon. Your eyes and nose might say that it looks and smells somewhat similar to chilled fruit beer. And I can write hundred more words BUT “You have taste it” to know more...

“CHEERS” drinkers :-)
