Loved it!
Olive Café W
e had heard good reviews about Olive Cafe and decided to try it out last night and it was a brilliant experience! The three of us (all guys) got there for dinner around 9 pm. We picked a table next to the creek. Although it is open-air it feels more sophisticated than the other open-air clones lining Beach Avenue. I’ve been to some of the others and though they are nice, this was so much better. The owner of the place was very welcoming and helped us with the order. The extra personalization and care on a first visit makes such a huge difference. In fact, he even advised us against a menu item we wanted because he felt it wasn’t as fresh as he would have liked it to be! We were very impressed by that. We over-ordered by choice: Chicken Handi, Prawn Masala, Green Boti, and

www.yello.pk/30064 Reshmi Kabab as we wanted to try different things, and I’m glad we did. Everything was great! Especially the Green Boti and Chicken Handi (cooked in butter, I think). We polished off the food (Alhamdulilah!) and ordered fresh Kino juice, coffee and tea. We spent three hours eating and chatting there and had a great time. Overall, we were very satisfied and I will definitely take my family there, insha’Allah. Congrats to Raghib and Co. on their new venture, and a big thanks for setting the quality standard so high! Keep it up guys. :)
Indian Kitchen Must for Lunch
I
’m a frequent customer at Indian Kitchen whenever it is time for lunch. The menu mostly consists of desi cuisine including the spectacular biryani, kofta, haleem, karahi, qorma etc and an exclusive “Dish of the Day” which may feature something completely off the menu. They also have a special fruit chat for dessert. The biryani is so good that they’ve run out of it many times so best of luck when you go there ;)

An enjoyable and classy experience
M
y husband and I arrived at the newly opened cafe/lounge to find an elegant French/Italian cuisine restaurant, with a friendly staff, and a well-thought out menu. We were first sent complimentary blue-cheese dip with veggies and a bread-basket with garlic-herb butter. Our order of Caesar’s Salad with chicken (we had a choice for chicken or prawns) and Tomato soup arrived promptly and both were delicious. The croutons in the soup were a bit soggy but the rich flavour of the soup made up for it. We ordered the Chicken and Mushroom Risotto and Stuffed Ravioli with Spinach and Cottage Cheese in a creamy sauce, which were just perfect. Perfectly
seasoned, both dishes lived up to the expectations after the soup and salad. For dessert, we called for Crème Brulé and Italian bread pudding. The Crème Brulé was above expecations, but the Bread Pudding was a bit of a disappointment. All in all, the experience was fabulous. It was a delight to know that they welcome children in the restaurant. Olivetto is a place you must visit soon.

Pretty Damn Good
I
took my better half out on our anniversary so I thought I’d try something new and chose Olivetto. I liked the place as soon as I entered. The ambiance was great; it had a cozy setting unlike other cafes which I find really cramped. The decor is also good with a mixture of contemporary art, water colors and oils complimenting the wood work. The Spring deal is really attractive and is very well priced. I ordered the Tomato soup, Alfredo Pasta with Prawn and the Crème Brulé and my better half ordered the Spring Salad, Grilled Chicken and Crème Brulé. For the starters we ordered the Chicken Pizza bun which the waiter recommended. For drinks we got a Shirley
Temple and Shikanjbeen. We got complimentary vegetable sticks and bread and I really liked the bread because it was warm and fresh. The starter, Chicken Pizza bun was awful; the bread was dry and the topping was cold and I was not pleased with the food at first. But when the Tomato Soup arrived, it was delicious. When the main dish came, the waiter had my order wrong and had put in Chicken instead of Prawn but was happy to bring me some Prawns separately which I didn’t mind, it’s extra free food after all. This took only a few minutes to correct. The Alfredo sauce and Grilled Chicken were really good too. I tried a bit of the chicken and it was really
succulent and the Spaghetti it came with was perfect. Finally the dessert arrived and it was amazing. I’ve never had a better dessert and I can’t even explain how delicious it was. My companion who hardly ever finishes her food refused to give me some of hers. I would definitely go back there again.

A celebrity’s view of Karachi
Celebrity Q&A
SHAMAEEL ANSARI about Shamaeel Ansari
W
ith sharp aesthetics, simplistic values and a penchant to transform clothes into individual statement, Shamaeel Ansari whirled into the fashion scene more than two decades ago. After graduating from University of California with a major in Finance and Corporate Law, Shamaeel’s initial plans were to join her family business. But instead she chose a path less travelled. At the height of her career, Shamaeel took an eight year hiatus from designing to focus on international buying. This time she settled in the fashion capital of America New York, buying for US based customers, such as Donna Karen Home, Club Monaco, Eddie Bauer, Vonducth Akademiks, procuring textiles from Pakistan and India. In 2007 Shamaeel came back into the limelight and devoted herself to her first love - fashion designing. Geared with international experience, she continues to play effortlessly with colours, fabrics, designs and patterns in her couture and prêt line. In 2010 Shamaeel ventured into the realm of printed fabric and launched her first cotton lawn collection for mass market both nationwide and internationally.
T
oday Shamaeel Ansari brand has become a force to reckon with in the fashion and glamour industry. She has developed a unique style of her own, reflecting the tradition of Pakistani craftsmanship in contemporary style. Her understanding of Pakistani culture, design and an innovative use of intricate embroidery and distinctive use of colours has created a new classicism. Her collections exuberate delicate femininity and elegant mellowness that is gently imbued with a sense of magic and mystery. What is your fondest memory of a place in Karachi? The Hill Park years ago was a delight to go to as a child and eat at Shezan.
would you like to have come to Karachi and why? Alice in wonderland. The city needs humour, reality, fantasy and magic.
How do you remember Karachi 10 years ago? A safe haven called home. One could move around the city without any fear.
What’s your vision of a perfect society? Peace, civility and a mindset that recalls the spirit of Faith, Justice, Unity and the power of positive intent.
What’s your favourite place to eat in Karachi? Fried Kababs at Burns Road.
Which place is most overrated in Karachi? The shopping malls.
What do you find is a unique trait in Karachiites? Their ability to roll with the punches.
Describe yourself in one tweet. Ammunition fired and powder dry.
What do you feel is the most critical problem we face in our city today? Safety/Security for future. Basic civic amenities. Let there be light! And water! And petrol! If I gave you an Elephant what’s the best place to hide it in Karachi? All the Government Bureaucracies..... If I came to your home and looked inside the refrigerator, what would I find? Comfort food. Which fictional/non-fictional character

y uncle came to Pakistan from America after 11 years and since he was a cleanfreak he thought that the boiled water here was dirty. He soon had an upset stomach drinking the ‘dirty’ boiled water. In order to salvage his brother’s stomach, my father bought a gallon of mineral water and all was well. One fine day, as we were sitting down for lunch, my uncle mentioned to my father that he was out of mineral water and needed some more. My father had just started his meal and was really angry at the timing of my uncle’s request. In his haste to get back to lunch, he did not go to the mineral water supplier and instead filled the container with tap water and brought it to the table. My uncle was satisfied that he was having ‘mineral’ water and spent the rest of his trip drinking what was in fact, tap water. There were no further bouts of upset stomachs and my uncle returned to America a healthy man. As you can see mineral water is just an illusion for fooling the elite class of Pakistan and for people visiting from abroad. We don’t know how the mineral water suppliers get the water. It could be treated sewage water for all we know.

Pakistanis are stuck in that cycle. If it’s a branded shirt costing Rs. 3000 then it’s beautiful and comfortable but if the same shirt is bought from a non-branded store for Rs. 350, the quality is low and will give you a skin rash. Durrain Jamal www.yello.pk/user/13542

Superhero Required (Female Preferred) by Junaid Akram
D
oes it not bother you why all the superheroes live in America? Is it because it is a land of opportunity? What sort of an opportunity would a superhero be looking for? How have they managed to divide their jurisdictions and not intervene into each other’s area? Is USA in that much trouble that apart from attaining one of the biggest armed forces with the largest cache of sophisticated state-ofthe-art weaponry, they still need that many superheroes? Do I think way too much? I think it’s high time we get a superhero
in these troubled times we’re facing as a nation and “Commander Saabun” doesn’t seem to be doing that much for us. As we all know, Commander Saabun works for a corporation who feeds us fear and makes us consume for the sole purpose of their profit. What about Shaan? Umm no, because like his predecessors, he only specializes in Dupatta-Snatching cases. We need somebody who can multitask, dealing with Talibans up north, targeting the target killers down south and occasionally managing the queue in flood affected areas during the distribution of Watan Cards. To be honest those superheroes don’t fit our environment. Let me put some

examples before you. For instance Spiderman might end up working for a cable operator given his agility to be on top of buildings quickly, doing basic technical maneuvers fixing the screening quality of cooking channels for the aunties. Or he would end up running errands for typical housewives, who despite having half a dozen kids, always ask other kids to fetch naan from the tandoor. Imagine Spiderman at a tandoor queue getting tempted by the oily fresh-out-of-tandoor Sheermal. Superman? Umm no. If you remember, Clark wears his Superman kit “inside” his regular suit. We have one of the hottest climates in the world. He would only end up fainting from dehydration every now and then, getting a glucose drip from downtown clinics where he would be greeted with awful foul smelling medicines and crying infants. During his superhero mode, he might be seen getting scolded by a typical “Muhallay ka strict uncle” showing his disapproval for the shocking red underwear over his tight revealing pants. The Mullahs would be confused whether the letter “S” on his chest refers to Sunni or Shia and they would be busy debating and fighting over it for centuries. Batman? Umm don’t think so. Imagine this situation, Batman getting a call from

a local DSP about a suspected gang activity in Lyari. First he would waste a lot of time trying to get into his tight suit and drinking a jug full of “Limopani” so he could get that groggy voice. Then driving in his super car his biggest fear would be where to find parking. Unfortunately should he park it at the wrong spot, having told a PCO wala to look after it as he goes inside a house to give a good butt-kicking to the criminals, he would come back only to find his car being towed away and since his suit doesn’t have a pocket, it is unlikely that he would carry a wallet or a cellphone. That just seems to be too much bother for somebody who is imported to solve our problems. The reason I said “Female preferred” is because as a mother or a wife, she could completely mutate us from what we are, to what she wants us to be. Step in Aunty Bailan. What powers must she possess? Nothing unusual. Just has to be loud and very aggressive and know how to get others to do what she wants using a bailan. She should be very goal oriented and not be distracted by gossip, 24-hour cooking shows or soaps. ll

Why So Serious? by Ehtisham Rizvi
result in “What are you looking at? You want a piece of this?”. In Pakistan when you walk into a grocery store you just buy what you need and get out, no smiles, no thank you. In a Pakistani bank the environment seems tense and everyone seems stressed out. So the question arises, why are Pakistanis so rude? Why are we always looking for a fight? Who stole our smiles and sense of humor? I have my own theories about these questions but I want to know what others think about this.

he most major cultural difference between Pakistan and Australia is that people are polite and smile in Australia. While in Australia, I went to the bank to open my account, the customer services representative had a smile on his face. He asked me about my day, about my expectations from the visit and how I found Australia. At that point of time I had just arrived from Pakistan so I was thinking, “this man talks too much, just do your job and get it over with”. The next day I went to the grocery store and the shopkeeper said hi, then asked me about my day, and said “thank you” a million times during the transaction, all with a smile on her face. By that time I was thinking, “These guys take their customer services training seriously”. However, it began to dawn on me that the Australians are generally polite and happy people and unlike the popular opinion here in Pakistan, the Australians do not discriminate, at least not as much as Pakistanis. In Australia people walking down the street will exchange smiles and will greet you even if they don’t know you. Any accidental eye contact will result in a nod of the head followed by a smile and a “cheers mate” or a “G’day mate”, whereas an accidental eye contact in Pakistan will
Comments I guess worries of survival have stolen our smiles. Looking for a better life, good job, a wife, better health and education of children etc. Salman Mumtaz www.yello.pk/user/2157
