Saw another face of Dhaka today. Sort of dusky amid throbbing life -- everyone's out in droves, as are the lights. Out.
Who would ever have thought Star Kebab Restaurant on Dhanmondi Road # 1 would be closed on a Saturday evening? The place that could well advertise itself as the eatery that never sleeps! (And one whose rolls left Subject here with a ugh tummy, and a tale to tell).
And those restaurants near Rifles Square? Switched off for Eid, buddy, all of them.
You go, grab your grub at a relative's place; that was the motif of the city today.
Needs sort of getting used to, especially after weeks of dhingchak during Ramzan. Sobriety, after all is, part of human nature. Loved it. Need to now sit back and reflect.
