My trip to Suryagarh is now about to come to an end. I have been to Jaisalmer twice, and twice it has been on invitation from Suryagarh. I think as far as Jaisalmer is considered I am spoiled for life, staying around in such luxury and sigh seeing with the former model and the MD…

Suryagarh Jaisalmer in Pictures
I went to Suryagarh at Jaisalmer in January and had a fabulous time there. The complete Suryagarh Jaisalmer story is now up at Gonomad. Do read the story. In the process I looked the other way, over the wall and saw a helicopter parked at the premises. I asked Pallavi who has been to the property…

Dahi ke Kebab and Masala Papad
I got to eat Dahi ke Kebab for the first time at Suryagarh. I am not much of a foodie myself so I appreciate it when people around me know about food. Not sure if Dahi ke Kebab are Rajasthani in origin or not (Tarala Dala puts it as Mughlai) but I for sure ate…

Meeting Manvendra Singh Shekhawat at Suryagarh, Jaisalmer
Google Manvendra Singh Shekhawat and chances are you would find more images and stories from his modeling days with Gladrags rather than being the owner of Suryagarh, Jaisalmer.

When did you Last Kept Still for an Hour and Did Nothing?
When was the last time you lay down for an hour and you were awake? OK tossing and turning is not counted. I did it today morning at Rait, the spa at Suryagarh, Jaisalmer. I went for a Bliss Bali massage and it was sheer bliss to be pampered for an hour while the mind just thought of…
