Me and my friend Romma had a morning air asia flight from Bhubaneswar to Kolkata @9.30. It was a 45 min flight. .We both didn't take our breakfast..were very hungry. .As soon as we landed , we rushed to a south indian restaurant inside the arrival point called Idli.com..
(Idli.com is a good place to have some decent south indian vegetarian snacks)
We had mysore masala Dosa
From there we booked a cab (uber & ola are easily available) to camac street, my friend had booked a guest house there for us.
(Camac street is very close to Park street,one of the happening place of kolkata)
We reached the guest house and after keeping our luggage. .we rushed to new market, where we had some work .
( new market is a busy wholesale market of kolkata)
In between work we got time to have some quick lunch. We discovered a place called Scoop,Eat & Run.
(Scoope is a quick service restaurant in middle of new market,they serve chinese and continental)
Food was tasty and quick. We had a grilled chicken and a grilled fish with ice tea.
We finished our work and got back to guest house by 6. Kolkata is famous for its street food..we planned to order egg chicken roll from the street. It was heavenly tasty..An egg chicken roll will cost u around 40 rupee.
While taking rest in the evening, we started searching for some good options online for dinner. We found out about Monkey Bar and it was just opposite to our guest house.
(Monkey Bar is a well known chain of restaurants/ pub present across all the metro cities of India)
situated on the top floor, having glass walls gives you a nice view. Super ambience, Good music...thats what we look for a Friday evening.. It was fully packed, we managed to get a place for us.
we had couple of mojitos and a chicken starter. For main course, we ordered a thai green curry & rice combo. Food was ok, but the music and the place makes your evening for sure. A Must visit .

Unfortunately we got up late and missed going there. We had our breakfast at the guest house.
In this trip i had planned to visit Sing Cheug ..

In between shopping, we decided to have some quick bites in the food court. we had some Indian chat, momos and ice cream.
