One More Thought for Ahmedabad

What’s this new buzz in FB town! In past few weeks, the FBites, especially the amdavadi ones are seemingly captivated by an intriguing page Cityshor Ahmedabad. Contagiously enough, they are hitting the ‘Likes’ chart of this official FB page of a young start-up in the city called CityShor.com.


As its tagline says, CityShor.com tells what’s best in Ahmedabad in food, fashion, home décor, Ahmedabad Tourism, entertainment…Are you thinking it’s just another contact info directory? Better not ignore it, for it has much more in store to share with the amdavadi public. It strolls through the nook and corner of the city discovering, reviewing and sharing experiences about the new, interesting and undiscovered (by many) facets of Ahmedabad. Not many people know there’s an exclusive fan store in our city that sells unconventionally designed, innovative fans. If CCD and Shambhu’s were the only cafés you knew, well, there are a lot more interesting hangout places than those age old ones. Did anyone know of a recipe like Pav Bhaji Fondue and Chulla Dosa with a twist in Sambar being served in the heart of Amdavad? I never did, frankly. And a studio that teaches pottery, wow, really! Those who love to explore and do the new are sure to fall in love with them as they bring forth things that don’t boast of their goodness, but they are popular in niche crowd through word of mouth. And the word of CityShor’s mouth is quite a worth following.

A lot of interesting things I discovered while I roamed through CityShor.com. It amazed me greatly as it makes one realize that Ahmedabad is no more a boring city (as many people opine), rather it is rapidly evolving as a happening city. The uncommon theme-based restaurant and café concepts, the innovation in menu, the creative business and product ideas…it shows a glimpse of Western World’s influence on the young generation and young entrepreneurs of the city. The way amdavadis are going places and exploring countries across the world, no surprise this city with entrepreneurial spirit and passion is fast catching up with the world trends and showing up its global face. Browsing through CityShor.com and after having visited a couple of places I discovered there, I gather that this time is the dawn of a new era of contemporary entrepreneurship in aapnu Amdavad. Cheers!


So… go beyond the usual and explore the unexplored with CityShor.com (i.e www.cityshor.com). If you know of something that CityShor.com and everyone else should know, then do share with them (and also with me :-)


My Way: Walk down some busy street someday, aimlessly - nothing's as great as that to observe facets of life. Try it.
