Stay with StayZilla, Anywhere, Any price !

Had to download StayZilla to understand its working and to play with it, but there was no space to download it on my mobile. I checked the mobiles of my wife & my daughter, but the same situation existed everywhere. Lastly had no other option but to delete some other apps, to download StayZilla, as to get a Free stay at Indibloggers BNLF Mumbai meet, was much more exciting.

It took just a few seconds to download & install it. Once operational, I started working over it. It looked great. It showed three options i.e. being a Guest, being a Host and being both.



As a guest, we can explore over 4,000 PLUS locations and over 30,000 PLUS properties, assuring a comfortable stay at our fingertips. As a Host, we can register our property details and start making money from the day next as a vast number of users of this STAYZILLA APP are regularly on their smart phones to look after the best possible rates and locations to enjoy life. And we can be both a Guest and a Host at different times.



I started searching for Mumbai, Andheri east, for our stay in Mumbai from 30th October to 1st November. In a minute i got a result of 195 stays in that area. It started from the ontime hotel at Rs 4,499 and on scrolling it took us to hotel annex at Rs 2,961. The options available included a price tag of Rs 5,032 at grace residency, Rs 7,045 at Kohinoor continental, Rs 1,950 at hotel Travellers inn fort and so on. We could locate hotel Royal plaza at Rs 1,100, Sahara Inn at 1,300, as well hotel Dragonfly at 5,920.




It was amazing. A single click got me 195 options in a minute and that too, ranging from Rs 1,100 to Rs 7,000 plus. It clearly means that visitors of any class and quality may get the pre booking done via StayZilla, while sitting at their homes.




Its LOGO on the website was Anywhere, Any Price with just 30% of the payment as booking charges and rest on easy installments with the option of Full refund in Metros i.e. 146 cities & 2,600 PLUS properties. It also has the option of StayZilla Concierge i.e. a special end to end travel assistance for our comfortable stay in any part of the country.

At last, I would like to say that we must try it at least once as after that you will do all your bookings only through Stay Zilla.

McCain Smiles for a smile of loved ones !

I know very well that my daughters like to eat the things in a new style always and hence to see a big smile on their face, I thought of making the frozen McCain smiles in a new way.

McCain Smiles

Though McCain offers a wide range of frozen snacks as depicted in the pics below, I started with McCain smiles. First of all, I fried the McCain smiles into a pan with pure ghee until it turned reddish in the color. 

McCain Cheese & Jalapeno Nuggets

Then, I took a fresh coconut and used a grinder to make a thick paste of it along with chopped Mint leaves, Ginger and a bit of Lasun. It was almost half a cup in quantity.

McCain Chilli Garlic Potato Bites

I poured a spoon of pure ghee in the frying pan and poured the above coconut paste into it. Then I added a few spoons of onion paste and tomato puree, red sauce and fried it at low speed for a few minutes.

McCain Mazedaar Masala Tikki

After that I added salt as well the powder of Black pepper, long pepper, cinnamon and cardamom in it. Soon it turned into pink in color and that was the point when I removed the pan from gas and poured the material into a plate.

McCain Veggie Burger

It was a very thick paste. I added the fried McCain smiles into it in such a way that all the snacks were half dipped in the paste. Then, I used fresh chopped coconut paste mixed with tomato puree and Mayoanaise to cover the upper layer of the McCain Smiles. Then I took a pineapple and used a sharp knife to cut it into small smiley shapes. I covered the upper portion of smiles with the pineapple.

McCain Super Wedges

I placed this plate in a tray. I took small cups filled with Pineapple juice in it for garnishing and presented to my daughters. My wife was smiling on viewing this form of McCain smiles.

McCain French Fries

They all tasted it and yeah, I found that big smile on the face of my daughters. They were just laughing loudly. My wife took a bite of it and looked delighted. I was the last person there to taste it. Yeah, it was delicious. We all liked this new taste. It was quite different from what all of us use to eat regularly in our day to day life.

McCain Tandoori Vege Nuggets

Now this form of McCain smiles has become a routine in our family and I am sure that if you too try this once, it will become a regular routine food in your family also.
