Sooo I feel like Bangalore is a city that lives on Hype, everyone is just trying to be cool and are too afraid of actually call out stuff for what they are.
Few examples (my personal opinion)
Eat Naru - it’s good ramen, but you can definitely find better or as good (bookings are sold out in minutes) Pizza 4Ps - Average pizza, great hospitality but not worth waiting for a booking a month in advance Ultrahuman ring - It’s not even that accurate for that price March Tee - good T-shirt, but you can find so much better at that price point
I like to call this the Bangalore Hype Train xP
Totally Agree with this, everyone wants to get validation or some kind of approval from ultra rich or dumb influencers, I think it's totally influenced by Tech Cuties mostly from North India working in Startups (HSR, Koramangala). These dumbfucks who never stepped out of their world get excited for silly things, imagine people standing outside a biryani shop at 4am, people standing in a queue sandwich..uff this all insta validation stories matters for them, they seek happiness by impressing or making someone jealous of.
There usually is a mandatory twitter post after doing said activity as well 😂
Yeah, Tech cuties on Twitter with snap filters make single tech Bros go crazy about them 🙏. These people are living in a different world by phuking some dopamine ganja 🤑.
Add mokobara bags and berkinstak footware to list.
Mokobara quality is below average. And price is 3x the competitors
VIP brand for bags/suitcases have been using /hearing them since childhood...no hype, particular traditional business - these startups just over over hype
Heard this kinda crap is not relevant in old bangalore where the natives are much grounded and prefer to indulge in things in old bangalore at darshinis and templles and detest and hate the new bangalore mostly inhibited by the outsiders.
Naru is in Old Bangalore fyi.
In old Bangalore does not mean it's old or is loved by old Bangalore
Instagram drives fomo have created epidemic of status driven consumption like ₹2500 for a one hour class of pottery, strawberry picking for Rs. 2000.
What happened to free activities like playing morning cricket or enjoying IPL finale...
Finally someone said it 🙏 Why is Staying at home looked down upon
How many of you have been to this place?
I need honest feedback.
I was there last weekend,it was so overhyped and people were waiting in a long queue but the food was very average and normal.
What about you guys?
On a recent episode of Nikhil Kamath, he says “Bangalore is famous for nice and welcoming people”. This is so very true to a large extent. Every city however has some outliers who tarnish the image by going extreme.
I have seen a lot o...
I think these welcoming people are outsiders themselves. Actual natives hates outsiders and as per recent events they...
We also have UPI, we too book cabs, we too have famous food places and better in most cases. We face traffic too, it rains in other parts of India too. You all need to calm down
