The bridge steps

Image
Today, in the evening I walked till the bridge steps of my home in Madapad (North Parur, Kerala).  On the way I noticed 2 mynas. Then I climbed the bridge steps and stood on top and watched the waters flow through those streams. Then I walked down the steps thinking that no other house would have a bridge steps like this.

French toast is located in Kacheripady, Chittoor road. I reached there   today for lunch by around 2 pm. The place was very quiet and also neat and clean.   When i entered i noticed that a lot of pictures of their cuisine were hung on the wall. On their menu, they had pastas, pancakes, sandwiches and eggs. I noticed that they didnt have burgers. I ordered an egg white omellete filled with onions and capsicum. They bought it with 2 slices of bread that actually looked like garlic bread. After that i ordered a cup of americano coffee with milk on the side. They bought it in a glass cup. Overall experience was good. And i complimented the waiters for the place and food. And they happily said thank you.
