We had been in Pune for 4 days. During these few days, we found that the hotel service is very good especially at Momo cafe where we settle our meals excluding lunch.
The staff are very friendly and helpful. We can request for special food from the kitchen if they are not on the buffet choice.
Almost one of the staff is attached to our table to provide service. Each of them put on a nice smile and greet us 'Good morning madam' - a whole hearted greeting.
They rendered very flexible services. Should you find the food not good or not to your satisfaction, they will void the item on your bill.
If Singapore can provide such good service, we will have a wonderful city.
Each morning, we will take the free taxi service to the work place - Vipro II. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes to office.
Over there, we will spend our 9 hours working there including lunch. Lunch is served at the cataferia located within the compound.
The food is real cheap. On the first day at work, I bought a set meal - curry chicken with rice, some vegetables with chappti. Guess how much does that costs? Only Rs40 just barely a little after S$1.00.
Today is just the third day and I am getting a bit sick of the food. Oh... how to survive for another 23 days.

Pune training trip - day 1
Departing on an early flight on sunday morning, we reached Mumbai airport about 10 am India time which is 2.5 hours behind Spore.


Then we transfer to road transport from airport to Pune. Along the way we see mountains, waterfalls, nice landscape. The drive took 3 hours when we finally reached our hotel - Marriott Courtyard.
Upon completion of the check in, we took our first meal at the hotel. On Sundays they provide brunch at the cost of RS399 equivalent to S$13+.
We had a good meal and back to room to have a wash up. Around 4 we took the taxi from the hotel and went into city to take a look.
Our first stop is Central Mall where we spent about an hour plus but only completed 2 levels of the mall.
Then we went to MG Road but just a few shops as most of them are closed.
Our last spot was SGS Mall along the way. I got a vcd - Fast & Furious 4 for Ajit and a magazine named Yuva obviously for the girl.
Back to hotel almost 9 pm, we decide to order food from room service and have an early night.
That was how we spend our first day at Pune before starting work on the following day.
