Kolkata Diaries - Part 7 - Food, Misti, Vintage cars, art exhibitions, winter flowers, Boroline and a lot more

Kolkata is an emotion for Bengalis outside Kolkata. As the flight touches down at Netaji International Airport, having butterflies in your stomach is given. And also a broad smile. From your home to old paras (neighbourhood) to school friends to reunions, the local bazaar to chai, Misti, fish fry and the biriyani. Everything is a sensory and emotional overload. Visiting Kolkata during winters is the cherry on the cake. Winter flowers, nolen gur, vintage cars on display, heritage walks, art exhibitions and so much more. Best of course being meeting friends and family.

Kolkata Diaries - Part 6 - Parcel Cafe at GPO

Much hyped on social media. The place is nice, great decor, however could do with some better maintenance. The food is outsourced to a vendor. Needed to be better and more hygienic. Aside of the tea, would not recommend anything else. Good spots for photos. There is a Philatey Bureau just outside for stamp lovers and collectors.

Kolkata Diaries - Part 5 - RBI Museum

Pleasant surprise and a great one at that! The RBI museum in Old Council House Street is a very well planned and managed Museum for all things related to RBI - the nation’s central bank. To go through all details, it would easily take 1-2 hours. The layout and display is world class. The security is very polite, courteous and helpful. The building itself has strong heritage vibes. Check out the central old style lift!

KOLKATA DIARIES - Part 4 - Metcalfe Hall

An old Kolkata Building with sky high ceilings have been restored and used as an exhibit Center as well as for events. Multiple facets of Bengali culture are depicted here. From retro music and film posters along a wooden stairway, a work in progress Durga Protima, homage to freedmen fighters, giant topor - the hat worn by Bengali grooms - to multiple other artefacts - this place is an art and culture lovers delight. Not to mention, several great backdrops and spots for photography.

ALIPORE MUSEUM

An immersive experience in history and heritage. The erstwhile Alipore Jail is now a heritage Museum. The place has been done up well, the cells that imprisoned freedom fighters have been preserved, there are realistic recreations of life of prisoners which send a shiver down the spine and the gallows where India lost many of her brave sons.

Place worth a visit during any trip to Kolkata

KHADI CANVAS

We visited the most beautiful Khadi Canvas exhibition at TRI Art and Culture Kolkata. It is an innovative amalgamation of Raja Ravi Verma’s timeless art with Gandhiji’s Khadi. Art woven into Khadi. Browse through the frames to see the magic. Of course seeing in person was an immersive experience which photos are unable to convey. The exhibition is on till 26th April. Give it a visit if you can.

Can AI understand handmade nuances?

Bird motifs were among my very first hand-painted coaster designs. Recently, someone liked these two so much, he wanted a set of 12 birds along his stairway.I just could not recall the rest of the motifs !

Using these two coasters as reference, I asked AI to suggest similar bird motifs with the same aesthetic and mood—and frankly, I was surprised by how well it picked up the nuances
