The 'Kata (Sliced) Paav' Business Model

2011-08-12T07:12:00.001-07:00

Been 2+ months in Mumbai (second innings) and the 'When in rome, be a roman' foodie that i am, i end up sampling 'Paav' in one form or the other (for those who don't know there are LOT of variants). Everytime i am there at a roadside stall watching a vada, samosa,bhajjia paav being made i cant help but think the time and effort it take to cut the paav in half and add whatever it is that needs to be added.

Enter the 'Sliced Paav' Business Model,

The bakery making the paav runs through a kinfe when the bread (paav) is still hot. An even slice across the entire batch of paav's being baked. The <insert vada, bhajjia etc.> makers wont have to waste time cutting the paav into half.

Why? Time is money, isn't it!! Add up the 3-4 odd seconds it takes to cut each paav and it might add up to more than an hour or two. Use that time for serving more customers, making more vaadas or spend that time thinking up more paav related savouries :-)

* There was this initial thought that sliced paav's could be priced at a marginal premium but then wonder who will pay extra. But then, cutting the paav's while making them should not be that big a monetary burden, is it?

What Credit Card Personality Are You? [I am an Early Bird]

2011-06-29T22:59:00.001-07:00

Early Bird

Credit Score: Extremely high

This personality type identifies an individual as being highly proactive with their debt repayments. This person is usually well organized and prioritizes debt repayments before spending. For the Early Bird having credit is a convenience rather than a loan. They have the means to pay their bills upfront, and immediately (or in advance) pay their monthly debt in full as soon as they receive their bills. Early Birds usually close accounts as soon as they have been repaid although, unknowingly, this could result in a weakened credit score

Top 10 Tough Laws in the World !!

2011-03-01T21:03:00.001-08:00

10. DON'T FEED THE PIGEONS (ITALY)

In Italy it is illegal to feed the pigeons. Ok, that's a bit of a blanket statement. The rule actually has the potential to change from city to city. Make sure you leave the pigeons alone while you're in Venice, though - the locals are tired of cleaning up pigeon poop. You'll also want to avoid jumping into fountains, walking around without your shirt on (would you DO that as a tourist), and sitting on the sidewalk to eat your lunch. Fines range from a warning to monetary infractions anywhere from $50 to $600.

9. EATING IN PUBLIC (UNITED ARAB EMIRATES)

Before you leave for the United Arab Emirates you'll want to make sure you aren't visiting during Ramadan. During that time you are not allowed to eat or drink in public during fasting hours (ie. daylight hours) at all. Think we're kidding? Tourists have been fined up to $275 for drinking juice in public. Avoid public displays of affection as well unless you want to spend a few months in jail.

8. DON'T PAY IN CHANGE (CANADA)

Ever have the urge to empty your piggy bank of quarters and run down to the corner store? Don't do it in Canada. The Currency Act of 1985 prohibits consumers from using unreasonable amounts of coins to pay for purchases. This means you can't pay for an item in all coins (especially if it's over $10). Even the use of dollar-coins is limited. The shop owner has the right to choose whether or not he wants to take your coins but doesn't have to.

7. WASH YOUR CAR (MOSCOW)

In the beautiful city of Moscow it is illegal to drive a dirty car. The definition of dirty, however, is up in the air. Is a dirty car one on which you can draw pictures in the dust? Does it hide the license plate? Does it make the driver invisible? We suppose you'll find out if the police poll you over but the fines tend to be whatever the police decide to charge you - unless, of course, you offer him a bit of cash.

6. LEAVE YOUR HEADLIGHTS ON (DENMARK)

Studies in Denmark have shown that vehicles with their headlights on are more noticeable by other drivers than those who have their headlights off. You'd think this law would apply to night driving but it doesn't. Drivers here are required to leave their headlights on during the day as well or may face a fine of up to $100.

5. DON'T STOP ON THE AUTOBAHN (GERMANY)

You've heard of the Autobahn, right? The notorious German road where there are no speed limits? Make sure you fill your gas tank BEFORE you get on this daunting road. It's illegal to pull over on the side of this road for any reason and, if you do, it's illegal to get out and walk. You are, after all, endangering the lives of the people who are still driving at warp speeds.

4. PUT YOUR SHIRT ON (THAILAND)

In Thailand it is illegal to drive a car or motorcycle without a shirt on - regardless of how hot it is that day. Punishments range from verbal warnings to tickets costing about $10. This is no joke - the local police will pull you over.

3. DON'T KISS YOUR LOVER GOODBYE (FRANCE AND ENGLAND)

Love died a little bit on April 5th of 1910. Lovers spend so much time kissing each other goodbye at train stations that trains were actually running late. The law is relatively old, though, and really isn't enforced today - in France, that is. In Warrington Bank Quay in England, however, you'll be asked to move your goodbyes to the "kissing zone."

2. WEAR A COVER UP (GRENADA)

The folks at Grenada really do have a point. Cruisers visiting the beaches for day excursions have taken to strolling city streets in nothing but their bathing suits. In order to reign in a sense of decency, the city has instituted a fine for those who aren't wearing decent clothing off of the beaches. Fines can reach up to $270 but the local tourist boards would like you to believe that the law is not enforced. Perhaps its best to simply cover up rather than trying to find out for yourself.

1. NO GUM CHEWING (SINGAPORE)

Those with gum chewing habits may want to call it quits before heading to Singapore. The government really wants to keep the city clean and will fine you for chewing gum, feeding the birds (it causes poop) and forgetting to flush a public toilet. The only legal gum you can chew is Nicorette but you have to get it from a doctor and they will give your name to government officials to confirm you're allowed to have a wad in your mouth. These aren't the only strange laws around the world but they're certainly worth noting. Make sure you do your research before leaving on your next trip. Better safe than sorry!
