    You know those memes that say, “We did silly things before social media existed”? Well, we also had epic birthday parties —with menus to match.

    At Tiga in The Leela Hyderabad, it is all about celebrating the best of Singaporean, Malaysian, and Chinese cuisines. ‘Tiga’ means ‘three’ in Malay, and this fine-dining restaurant lives up to its name, curating a menu that highlights signature dishes from each of the three regions, alongside smart fusions that reflect a modern, pan-Asian approach. Tiga’s design incorporates the customary Asian patterns of pagoda and woodwork in a contemporary style.

    Mention Bengaluru-based Girish and the Chronicles (GATC) in a room full of rock fans and watch the mood shift — soaring vocals, powerful guitars, and memories of the band’s blistering live sets take centre stage. For over a decade, the four-piece band has been a driving force in India’s hard rock and melodic metal scene. Originally from Sikkim, GATC comprises Girish Pradhan (vocals), Nagen Mongranti (drums), Yogesh Pradhan (bass), and Suraz Karki (guitar).
