After recceeing the place and booking ourselves in The Raees Khana and ofcourse building up an appetite...the only place I could think of going was...

Some views from where we were sitting, on the 2nd floor of...

You guessed it! we're at the Taj Hotel Nathiagali serving the famous roast chicken with the special recipe...this is something we wanted our fellow travellers to experience first hand...and boy were they glad. We actually lost count of how many chickens we ordered. And eventually found out when we got the bill:)

We were happy to split the bill 3 ways;)

After a heavy meal, we spent the rest of the afternoon in the hotel garden enjoying the weather, while the women folk hit the bazaar for some much awaited shopping.

Here are some random views...

The next day we had a late breakfast of garma garam parathas…the traditional ones (squarish, parath walay) and fried eggs/omlets with chai at the hotel. Let me tell you that the parathas were an instant hit and between 15 persons (3 families) we ate 30. The cook eventually had to take the rest of the day off!

After a memorable breakfast we hit the road and drove up to the Shangri-La Pines Hotel. Parked our rides there and took the track up to the small zoo (sorry, I don’t know the name of the track. Was too busy trying to keep the kids in tow).

Here are some random shots for your viewing pleasure.

A very nice track, and clean fresh air just what the doctor ordered:D

I couldnt keep up with the kids...so they had to wait for me every now and then:P
