A Cozy Night at Si Nonna’s: Pizza, Croquettes, and a Surprisingly Heartwarming Gelato

Recently, I visited Si Nonna’s again. I hadn’t planned on going back, but it just happened. It was a very cold night, and I was craving pizza, so we decided to go there. This time, we ordered pizza number 4, which consisted of fior di latte mozzarella, ricotta cheese, blue cheese, aged parmesan, homemade jalapeño salsa, homemade cherry tomato confit, fresh basil, and EVOO. We also ordered mozzarella and jalapeño croquettes.


First, the croquettes arrived. They were okay, but not great. The filling was small, and there wasn’t enough of it, so I wasn’t particularly impressed.

Then, our pizza came. We added a little more olive oil and tried to do a cheese pull, but it didn’t work out as expected. However, the taste of the pizza was really good — flavorful and satisfying.




Although we were pretty full, there’s always room for dessert, right? I saw gelato and decided to try some. I ordered Sicilian pistachio gelato. It turned out to be delicious — so tasty from the very first bite. I still crave it! However, I had certain expectations, like the ones you see in food vlogs on YouTube, but it wasn’t quite like that. It was just a simple scoop for 250 INR.




 While I enjoyed the taste, in that moment, I reminded myself not to judge a book by its cover — the saying is true. I know for sure I’ll crave it again. We paid 1,498 INR in total, but that gelato won my heart.

Nepal Trip Cancelled?! My Mumbai Travel Story & IRCTC Waitlist Nightmare 💔🏔️

The Trip That Never Began | Mumbai to Nowhere 💔🏔️ 13th April. The day I was supposed to finally leave for Nepal. I had imagined this day so many times — the excitement, the journey, the feeling of starting something I had been waiting for. But the day had other plans. I woke up early, already feeling a little uneasy. At first, I ignored it, thinking it was just nervous excitement. But within some time, I started coughing… and then suddenly, I felt worse and even threw up. For a moment, I paused. Should I cancel? But then I looked at my packed bags. Months of planning… and I still decided to go ahead. (Looking back, maybe I should’ve listened to my body 😅) After getting ready, I did my usual prayers, took blessings, and left. There was still hope. I booked a bus to Mumbai — ₹950. The journey felt longer than usual, maybe because I wasn’t feeling my best. Still, the excitement of the trip kept me going. By around 5 PM, I reached Dadar. My train was at 10 PM. Which meant I had time — t...

Burger Byte Cafe

Went to this substitute place situated near fc road, Pune. It was too much crowded but we got some place to sit.    Another substitute for Camp and Kp burger, nearby FC road. One-time visit to try the burger. The veg burger was good, but it wasn't even fitting in hand even though it was cut into two pieces. The food is affordable with a large quantity, but the hygiene is lacking. The seating area is congested and crowded, needing more space for seating. The cheeseburger only cost us Rs.75/- Overall experience: 3.5/5 Location:  Shop no 26, Madhu Vrindavan Society, Near, JP Trivedi Road, Sud Nagar, Shivajinagar, Pune, Maharashtra 411018
