A list of pet-friendly places in Bangalore rated as per my experience there (comfort of the staff with dogs, and the food). I've tried to add most places around the city, but you can also add yours to the list since this may not be comprehensive. Here goes..

How Mel feels about the long weekend full of cafe hopping
Only thing he’s building are more interruptions (i mean opinions) on customer calls.

The Smithsonian Air & Space Museum in DC and the Deutsches Museum in Munich are two of the best museums I've been to (and Intrepid in NYC too), didn't want to leave even after spending a whole day seeing planes and learning about their history. I did come out enriched 😅
You can’t rush men at aviation museums, that’s their enrichment time

Atteint de narcolepsie, le jeune cocker Gösta a une particularité : dès qu'une émotion devient trop forte, il tombe aussitôt de sommeil.

Maps showed 40 min congestion on the entire inner ring road from Indiranagar to HSR. So my sane mind decided to take a detour via bellandur 🤦🏻‍♂️ 60 min became 115 min. Follow me for more such travel hacks.

Fun fact: Humans domesticated dogs for company, so don't be alarmed when dogs are seen in public spaces sharing the space with humans. If dogs should be restricted to a dog park, children should be restricted to children parks/schools 🤷🏻‍♂️ My dog wants my company, be it in a cafe.
Fun fact: children are young humans who are in the process of learning how to be adult humans and exist in the human world! Dogs, on the other hand, will never be humans and therefore do not need to experience "going inside a coffee shop" at any point in their canine lives.

I received a similar message on WhatsApp for a booking in Vietnam, and a friend for her Scandinavian hotel. Both messages claimed to be from the hotel and had ALL our details given to Booking.com and asked us to click on a link to confirm and avoid cancellations.
Things are about to get real scary. I got a WhatsApp message about a hotel reservation I made on Booking.com. They have my correct hotel name, correct dates, correct amount, everything. They ask me to confirm my CC details, without which they'll cancel my res.

OF COURSE they lost my bag. And the Korean staff at Incheon airport has no idea on if/when it will arrive, per diem, or anything else. Good job, stellar @airindia
Haven't even taken off, and this @airindia flight has houseflies in it, I've been bitten by mosquitoes, my screen doesn't work, and there's holes in the wall, literally. Even Vietjet/AirAsia are better, no frills but at least they maintain their fleet and keep planes hygienic?

Absolutely love how every single @cathaypacific flight goes through turbulence exactly when they need to serve hot drinks. Every. Single. Time. Uncanny, this weather on CX flights.

Went to Cafe Beku in JP nagar and their blue cheese pasta was 🤌🏻 Have to make more trips to south Bangalore and explore cafes there.
So want them to open a branch in Indiranagar. Can't recommend enough their tiramisu, Salted Caramel Cold Foam Brew, and jamun jamaisi . . . 📌Kahale, Jayanagar
