Love the Rim Naam, the Thai specialty restaurant at the Oberoi in Bangalore. I was once asked to answer a survey on the quality of food. That day for some reason the food was not upto standard. I called a spade a spade!!! I had the head chef at our table in 10 seconds flat demanding a reason for that remark!! So, out of pure fear I changed my remarks!!!!
