The Country Club Blog

As part of promoting ‘Save the Tiger’ campaign, Indian ace cricketer Yusuf Pathan visited Country Club Wildlife Resort Bandipur on 14^th July 2012. Taking time from his busy cricketing schedule, the aggressive all-rounder and wildlife enthusiast visited Bandipur National Park to spread awareness about the decline in Indian tiger population. He visited ‘Project Tiger’ sites and met forest officials in the National Park to study the ground realities and the success of Government sponsored programme.

   

Started by well-known Indian cricketers Sandeep Patil, Harbhajan Singh and Yusuf Pathan, ‘Save the Tiger’ campaign is an initiative to save the critically endangered species in India. To support the cause, many Indian cricketers have joined the campaign by adopting Tigers at various biological parks and zoos across the nation. ‘Save the Tiger’ team organizes exhibition cricket matches, fashion shows and entertainment events to spread awareness and raise funds for the campaign.

Country Club now has 3 properties in Goa, company owned and operated property Country Club de Goa, Country Club Nagoa Grande and the newly launched Country Club Assagao. So the next time you think of Goa – think Country Club. The newly launched property is situated at Assagao in North Goa. This brand new property has much larger rooms and has a combination of 1 bed room and 2 bed rooms ideal for larger families. The resort boasts 2 swimming pools, one with a swim up pool bar, coffee shop, bar and restaurant.

 

   

 

The resort is in close proximity to most beaches in Goa, around 5.5 km from Calangute and Baga beach and 4.5 Km from Anjuna & Vagator Beach. As Goa is India’s most preferred location we are happy to be able to offer many more options to our members.

24th April: UPDATE: Inventory is now integrated with Country Club’s online booking system. Members can log in to their member profile and book your holidays. As of today all dates are available.

With anti-obesity day coming up this month, I couldn’t help but notice the Global health statistics, which blew my mind away. 

Here’s a preview of a few figures, as per Continua Health Alliance – Industry Statistics.

• There are more than 1 billion overweight adults worldwide and at least 300 million who are clinically obese. (WHO World Health Report)

• About 21% of coronary heart disease globally is attributable to body mass index (BMI) above 21kg/m2. (WHO World Health Report)

After going through these astounding facts, health and obesity are indeed directly proportional. Staying fit is the quintessence of the day and keeping a regular check on one’s physical wellbeing has become an absolute must.

Country Club presents a plausible cum enjoyable way to make this critical requisite a reality. The facilities provided and the choices given to members for a robust lifestyle are incessant. We believe in a Trinitarian philosophy, where we focus on the body, mind and soul.

Today, I shall bring to your notice a very distinct element that has gone unnoticed for donkey’s years now. It’s obvious that I’m going to stay loyal to my curious side and not spill it out instantly. Ahaan so let me put your mind to test a bit, with the hope that you’d figure something.

(Reading the following clues, kindly guess karo)
- A list of dishes to be served or available for a meal
- The dishes served or available at a meal
- A list of available options, displayed on a print medium.

Alright, alright you’ve got it right. I’m talking of the menu cards, that we come across every other time we decide to splurge into a world of non-homemade food. Menu cards have two integral elements that instantly decide the status of the restaurant or food joint – the dishes and their price. It is the first non-verbal feedback that can be gathered from the expression variations imprinted on the customer’s face. So, there you go, it’s either a happy ending or a distressed one.
Thinking of Menu Cards, there is this one place that I’ve visited over and over again with one mission. Creamstone, a renowned ice-cream parlour in quite a few cities is THE place for some yumm ice-cream(my opinion). Apart from the mouth-watering bit, I’ve always wanted to try out their wide array of items, cause of the distinct names that they’ve come up with. From Willi Wonka to the Brownie Break, each one their fancy names on the menu cards have lured me to that place quite often.
But this case, which I’m publicising to you at this very moment, has stood out, enticing a huge fold to its stable. Presenting to you for the first time in the twin-cities (Hyderabad and Secunderabad) a new revolution – the ’49 Menu’. All rights reserved by CC and CC alone.

The legendary CC 49 Menu revolution
Incredibly, every item on the menu is going to cost you only Rs 49. Not being partial to the vegetarians, the non-vegetarians will be served at the same price as well. This is no joke, mind you, nor any one of those hallucinations that you think you’re having. It is the truth and nothing but the truth.
Every dish on that menu is priced Rs 49 and this is made available all day, every day. Foodies, this is the treat that is going to please your taste buds and pockets. Already known for their talented chefs, today CC is being praised for its affordability and enthusiasm.
Another reason to shout out loud and get yourselves instantly to the club – It’s not just the food menus that are given this explicit price, the liquor menu cries out the same. Hurray!

Mini conditions that apply
- The portions that are served are mini portions.
- One man/woman shall be completely satisfied to the fullest.
- You can pick anything from the specially designed menu

Some items on the Menu
Non-veggies: Kalmi Kebab, Pepper Winglets, Fish Fry, Butter Chicken
Veggies: Paneer Tikka, Dal Makhani, Kadai Veg, Jeera rice
Liquor fans: 1 Bacardi breezer, 1 mug of Beer (R.C. and Haywards)
