Chef Wen Wang Creates Magic at Black Lotus

By Tricitynews

Chandigarh 10th August:- Laying claim to being one of the first authentic fine dining Chinese restaurants of City Beautiful, Black Lotus, has always held a coveted place in the heart of food lovers. While the ambience and luxury element of the restaurant is no doubt very special, it has always been its authentic food that has drawn crowds. In keeping with this trend, Expat Chef Wen Wang from Beijing takes the menu on an all new high with some delectable dishes from his part of the world.

Having already introduced the only hot-pots in Chandigarh and impressed with the unique flavours of his clay pots, this time round Chef plays with some special cooking methods from China.

Chef goes on to explain that when it comes to oriental food, retaining the unique taste of each ingredient is just as important as ensuring that the nutrition is also retained. Based on this philosophy the cooking method in China does not involve too much heat exposure.

An entire steam section in the menu will have guests drooling with the many options offered. Right from dim sums to bao to kothes, one can try them all in a variety of fillings. Another very attractive addition is the salads that have been brought in. In fact the Chef Wen Wang salad in the menu is something that is a personal recipe of the Chef himself and he recommends it specially.

The starters have also undergone an interesting change. Taking a step back from the deep fry cooking concept, Chef has come up with a sauté and wok tossed mix of recipes. Not only are the flavours very enigmatic here, but the health quotient of the meal is also kept at an all-time high. Wok tossed water chestnut with burnt garlic, is a dish that the Chef suggests to guests who like their vegetables crunchy and yummy.

Old favourites like the Peking duck and grills have been retained in the new menu. Chef Wen Wang has played a lot with aubergine and okra too in order to create some ‘never seen before dishes’ in the main course. Meat lovers will be spoilt for choice with almost all kinds of meats being roped in. Right from chicken, lamb, pork and even sea food, one can try it all in different styles of cooking and presentations.

Surinder Singh, General Manager Taj Chandigarh feels that evolving is important and even though the previous menu was hitting a home run, he did feel that Chef’s suggestion were very unique and would be welcomed by guests whole-heartedly.

The new menu that Black Lotus introduces, promises to be a delight in more ways than one. Guests can enjoy some authentic dishes from China and tease their palate with these new and unique flavours. Like Chef Wen Wang puts it ‘you have to try them to enjoy them’.

One day, Niranjan picks up a fight with his existing istriwala and to be firm with his words and driven by his ego, he ends up firing him. Niranjan finds this new man, Damu and gives him the job. Damu is has a reputation for vanishing and not returning his customers’ clothes, even wearing them slyly. Not just this, Damu also loves boasting about himself and his work. Niranjan, unaware of Damu’s misdeeds earlier, later realizes later that things have gone out of control.

The story takes an interesting twist as Niranjan has an annual meeting coming up, for which he has to wear a particular blue suit, which is the dress code. The meeting day arrives and Niranjan’s suit is still with Damu who, not surprisingly, is untraceable. Damu’s character is portrayed by the veteran, Nagesh Bhonsle, who is known for his robust roles in films and television.

Commenting on his part in Namune as Damu Istriwaala, Nagesh Bhonsle said that he feels really blessed to be a part of Sony SAB’s Namune.

Construction of Grand Ram Temple Begins in Thailand's 'Ayutthaya'

By Tricitynews

Chandigarh 08^th August :- After an elaborate 'bhumi poojan' ceremony, the construction of a 'grand Ram temple' was begun today by the Ram Janmabhumi Nirman Nyas Trust in Ayutthaya in Thailand, a senior functionary of the organisation said. The temple would help spread the message of Lord Ram outside India, he said.

Ram Janmabhumi Nirman Nyas Trust president Mahant Janmejay Sharan told over the phone from Bangkok , said that after performing rituals of bhumi poojan, the construction of a grand Ram temple has been started in Ayutthaya. As there is delay in the construction of a Ram temple in Ayodhya with the matter pending in the Supreme Court, we, the devotees of Ram, have started construction of a temple here.

 He added that we expect the the decision of the apex court will come soon in our favour and we will start the construction of the temple in Ayodhya, Sharan said.This temple (in Ayutthaya) will pave way for the temple in our own Ayodhya.

He sad that he expect the construction in Ayodhya will start before Kumbh-2019. He said that the construction of the temple in Thailand will establish India as 'vishwa guru' (world leader) at the intellectual level and help spread the message of Lord Ram globally.

The Ram temple is being constructed on the bank of Chao Phraya river which flows through the heart of Bangkok.

It is said that in the 15th century, the capital of Thailand was a city called Ayutthaya, which is Ayodhya in the local language.

When Burmese soldiers overran this city in the 18th century, a new king rose. He called himself Rama I, established the city now known as Bangkok, wrote the epic Ramakien, which is Ramayana in the local language, made it the national epic, and got it painted as murals on the walls of the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, patronised by the royal family, it is believed.

Though he was a Buddhist, the king established his royal credentials by identifying himself with Lord Ram, who was as much a hero for Buddhists of south-east Asia as he was for the Hindus of south Asia.

Chandigarh's 12 Panchayats of Villages Decides Not to Celebrate Independence Day This Year

By Tricitynews

Chandigarh 07th August:- The Sarpanch of 12 villages in Chandigarh said today in the press conference that BDPO are doing all effort to crush the Panchayati Raj, in Chandigarh. This was stated by the Members of the Chandigarh Sarpanch Association.

They said that for the first time in 50 years, the bills of works done by Panchayats (ACF ) has been sent for checking and not releasing the  payments for several months, due to which the village panchayats have become worse.

In a press conference organized at the Chandigarh Press Club, Sarpanch of 12 village said that the Panchayat is not able to do the development work and the condition of the village is getting worse. To look at all the panchayats with suspicions by the BDPO and ignore their actions and to express their objections in all the tasks. Due to which all the Panchayats of the village are facing problems. Neither the development work has been done nor is it being done.On the same issue, the Sarpanch of 12 panchayats of Chandigarh went to their office to meet BDPO, all standing outside their office for a long time. But BDPO did not invite them to meet him, after all the sarpanch tired of being waiting for long, they all went back to their village. They got nothing but despair. 

This  is a matter of humiliation for the villages and Panchayats in Chandigarh. All of them are being treated like this which is quite embarrassing. He further said that since the BDPO took charge, 12 villages of Chandigarh have been in disaster mode since then. 

All the development work of the village has stalled, no progress is being made, everyone is being interrupted in the work and it is being stopped. The panchayats have been badly damaged and neither they are allowed to do any work nor are they able to do any work by themselves, due that the condition of the village is getting crispy day by day.  Because of this Panchayati Raj is being demolished and it is being ignored, it is being insulted too, if this is the case then the existence of the Panchayati Raj will end in the coming time. 

On 24-04-18,  out of 12 panchayats of Chandigarh, two panchayats were selected for honoring 'Gaurav Samaan' by the Hon'ble Prime Minister and the selected village was honored as a sum of prize money, Rs.1000000 was given by the Prime Minister.  Even after this, the money was not given to the village panchayat (release) and it has been delayed till today. Forcibly ignoring the Panchayati Raj by BDPO, Panchayat has been completely helpless and lifeless since this type of work has been done.

Sarpanch of Panchayats of Chandigarh has decided that if the BDPO has not been sent back to their original state within next 15 days, then all of Chandigarh Panchayats will send their resignation to Chandigarh Admission.

Chandigarh 07th August:- India’s first 360 degree sports Tech-Ecosystem, Run Adam, created with a vision to help realize every sporting dream, was launched by M.S.Dhoni today. The former Indian Cricket Captain has taken 25% stake in his personal capacity in the bootstrapped tech-company and will play a significant and crucial role as mentor and brand ambassador of Run Adam.

Run Adam uses its technology platform to connect athletes with resources, including sponsors, experts, coaches, academies, specialists among others. Designed to be a single-access, tech-enabled platform for sportspersons, Run Adam providesinstant and easy access to resources across the country. Registration on Run Adam is free for the sporting community and is available for download on Google Play store and Apple store.

M.S.Dhoni, a Padma Bhushan and Padma Shri awardee, launched the sports tech-ecosystem and said that Run Adam will play a significant role in aspiring sportspersons’ life to help achieve their dreams. He have faced challenges during the initial stages of his career and he sees Run Adam filling a vacuum. The sports ecosystem will naturally help identify, help and nurture sporting talent early and this can change the destinies of sportspersons as also the future of sports in India. When you help sportspersons achieve their full potential, you propel the sporting quotient of the entire country. His decision to take stake in the company was due to the passion of the team and their vision for sportspersons.

K. Yeragaselvan, CEO, and MD of Run Adam, said that India is yet to achieve its full potential in sports and this is not because there is a lack of talent in the country. Pursuing sports is expensive in terms of money, time and other sacrifices that one has to make. Most sportspersons are self-funded and often don’t come from affluent backgrounds, and many cannot reach their goal mainly due to lack of access to resources. Run Adam aims to bridge this gap in sports. We are excited and encouraged by the support that a stalwart like M. S. Dhoni has given us. His interest and involvement in Run Adam inspired us to reinforce our vision to bring the country’s sporting ecosystem under one umbrella to help solve the biggest challenges facing sporting talent.
