Recently, tea sommelier Snigdha Manchanda Binjola struck a chord with shoppers at Godrej Nature's Basket Aundh as she conducted a High Tea Appreciation Workshop. Participants tasted tea – from green tea, golden tea, white tea, flowering tea to classic Darjeeling and Assam tea – paired with dark chocolates and cookies.
Seasoned Music
The memorabilia-laden interiors of Hard Rock Cafe will resonate with the astute voice of singer Gary Lawyer on February 16. The veteran performer will offer his trademark mix of pop, jazz, rock, country or folk in the evening.
Art with a heart
This one promises to be a heavyweight of an art exhibition. Artists Lalitha Lajmi, Madhuri Bhaduri, Buwa Shete, Shrikant Kadam, Samir Mondal, Gurcharan Singh, Datta Bansode, Ramesh Gorjala, Babu Xavier, Nishant Dange, Pradeep Mishra, Jagganath Paul and others have come together for an art-cum-charity event called 'The Artist's Brush', to be held from February 16 to 19 at Patch of Blue in Mundhwa. A by-invitation-only preview of the collection will be held today at the venue. The Lila Poonawalla Foundation will receive 25 per cent of all sale proceeds.
