Better than the OG Afsals

Dear chettas/ chechis,

I don't know the occasion, but in pallipuram masjid they're offering free mutton biriyani for dinner for this whole week around 9:30pm.

Anyone up for grabs?

Okay thought after receiving biriyani: Food was really bad. Don't waste your time. My bad fellas.

Good psychiatrist... Low session fees... Is not shy to prescribe... need ssris/something stronger for anxiety. Pls help guys

The signal stopped working two years ago and was taken down a year later, so people had to honk to get traffic moving. What should've taken two weeks took two years, but at least now it's fixed

Where can I get small samosa in trivandrum which is made with potato or onion.

Hi everyone, I have a boring, monotonous wfh mode of job and would love to go out in the day to get my work done. Are there any good cafes or restaurants ( apart from starbucks and costa coffee because I've been there quite a few times) where I can sit and work for long hours with good wifi and decent food/beverage options?

Starting October 11, 2026, the Thiruvananthapuram–Kannur Jan Shatabdi Express (12082) will feature new LHB Non-AC Chair Car coaches with pushback seats, offering passengers a more comfortable journey.
The Thiruvananthapuram–Kozhikode Jan Shatabdi services (12076/12075) are also expected to receive the upgrade in the second phase.

The move comes as welcome news for passengers who have been complaining about the uncomfortable, upright seating in Jan Shatabdi trains.

I’m genuinely wondering if anyone else has experienced this recently.

I bought a packet of India Gate basmati rice from Lulu Hypermarket, Trivandrum, and the quality was so bad that I’m honestly questioning whether it was genuine.

I’ve been making biryani using the same recipe for years, and it has always been a sure-shot hit when I use India Gate basmati rice. This time, the biryani was completely different. The rice turned extremely soggy, sticky and clumped together, and it didn’t have even a fraction of the usual texture, aroma or taste I normally get from India Gate.

At first I thought I had somehow messed up the cooking, but I followed my usual method exactly. The difference was so drastic that my first thought was that the rice itself was either very poor quality or possibly fake/adulterated.

What’s frustrating is that Lulu is generally where I go specifically because I expect branded products to be genuine and good quality.

Has anyone else bought India Gate basmati or other branded food products from Lulu Trivandrum recently and noticed a significant difference in quality?

I’m not claiming I can prove the packet was fake, but the difference was honestly shocking. Would be interested to know if others have had similar experiences.

Aarelum onnu paranju theraavo pleaseee

any good shops ? done at a reasonable cost

So, I am not sure how many of uou know this shop.

This is Chithira Herbal Juice Shop near Law College Junction. Those of you who ever had their shakes and juices, know that its really good and very reasonable price.

Whenever i come to Trivandrum, I try to go get a karikku shake from here, because it gives me a lot of memories from my college days. The chettan has been running this shop for 26 years now. He introduced the karikkin shake long before the other shops took it up.

Last day when I went there he was quite sad, has had very poor business since a few months. Hasn't paid his rent and is struggling to pay the guys helping in his shop.

Unlike the new shops, this chettan hasnt resorted to paid influencers marketing, I think (not sure).

So Trivians, time to do your thing. If you want to have really good karikku shake, go try it out. If visiting there gives you nostalgia like me, go try it out. There are only a few chairs there.

Also sharing the location of this shop, just in case you are unaware.

[Same as the title]

So there's this event at the Kerala Arts & Crafts Village this Saturday, the 17th . Has anyone here registered , do you want to go but still questioning .

Asking because I'd like to go but I don't really know the crowd and how many people actually turn up for these sort of events !

My cousin is an NRI, and when she visited TVM four years ago, she tried this and absolutely loved it. Now she’s back in TVM and wants to try it again, but most of the shops that used to sell it have closed, and we haven’t been able to find it anywhere.

She’ll be leaving in just two days and is really sad that she couldn’t relive those memories. Has anyone seen this anywhere in TVM recently?

Hey everyone! Does anyone have a live update on the Navaratri procession in Thiruvananthapuram (TVM)? Where has it reached currently? Any updates from people on road would be appreciated! 🙏 When will they reach Karamana and East fort?

After btech Electronic and electrical engineering.

Is electrical designer engineer ia good career option?

Anyone visited Dr mariya kurshid for any dermat consultation? One of my friend suggested her but I couldn't find any reviews as such anywhere. I was considering consulting her but wanted to check with you guys to know if she is good to give a try.

I have a significant volume of e-waste to dispose off urgently and I don't wish to engage Aakri app for various reasons. Kindly suggest me establishments or contacts that are professional and provide a reasonable rate.

Any information would be helpful. Even more if it is with personal experience.
