The Easy Way To Travel In India

BY  Barsha Mar 2, 2022

As we entered 2022, more and more people opted to work remotely and began craving coffee and similar beverages from premium brands like Starbucks and Cafe Creme. So it’s no wonder that the brands selling coffee witnessed unprecedented growth in the last three years. But, with 2021 coming out as the year of resignation, is 2022 going to be the year for a premium beverage? Every other brand in the hospitality market is ready to convince consumers to expand the cafe and coffee experience. But the question is, are they? And if they are, what about the quality? Unfortunately, while most brands successfully introduce a cafe experience, they fail to maintain the quality like the cafe creme franchise. So what is it about the Cafe Creme brand that seems to attract several consumers every other day? Is it the delectable taste or the beautiful French location? There could be several reasons behind this sudden growth. Keep reading to find out everything you need to know about this famous brand! About Cafe Creme: The Brand Although the Cafe Creme brand was launched several years ago, it was only a few years ago that the brand really started putting in efforts for expansion. The managing director of the cafe creme franchise, Kunal Kashikar, is responsible for consistently marketing the brand by visiting various places in the country and doing adequate research on the whole cold coffee revolution. If you are wondering what is cafe creme, instead of learning about the brand on Google, why don’t you try out the brand’s signature drunk, Kuka? The chocolate-colored website of Cafe Creme mentions with pride that the brand is currently serving a whopping six lakhs (and more on some days) Kuka glasses on average every month in more than 20 cities in the country. A paradise for chocolate connoisseurs, every outlet offers calm, modern interiors with a relaxing atmosphere for consumers. The best part about the brand is that it constantly evolves with consumers' tastes. They are always busy researching and coming up with more ways to improve the holistic cafe experience. Products The residents of Maharastra will love the fact that we recommend the cafe creme Vashi at Navi Mumbai and cafe creme Kalyan at Thane for their mouth-watering menu. But we are asking you to visit the one in Paris! If you have not checked out the Cafe Creme menu, here’s what you will find! Kuka Kuka Exclusive Creme Shakes Creme Mastani Fresh Cream Shakes Junket (Sundae) Thunders (Ice Creams) Chocolate Exclusive Choco Cremes Snacks Hot Beverages Sandwiches Cafe Creme - Best Reviews (https://www.tripadvisor.co.nz/ShowUserReviews-g187147-d812150-r688576480-Cafe_Creme-Paris_Ile_de_France.html) - Reference for four reviews. As a brand that has survived the tough chocolate and premium coffee industry in Paris for many years, Cafe Creme has earned its fair share of reviews on Google from consumers across the world. Check out a few of our favorite reviews! Review By Tomer Y From Paris “Great food! I was with a friend, we took Avocado toast and salad Hallumi - both delicious! The service was fast and good. Just a long waiting line to get in on weekends.” Review By Mitch D From Bordeaux “This is a typical bistro/cafe in the Marais area. Good food, just not spectacular. The staff is really helpful. Outdoor seating and the place are always crowded for lunch and dinner. Many young people are so interested in watching the crowd and other diners. We always have lunch here when in the area.” Review By Thomas V From Oakland “Well, this is a fine cafe and a great place to sip a cup of coffee and enjoy the terrific Marais atmosphere. But we like the lunch menu and the hamburgers. Great location.” While Cafe Creme earned some stellar reviews globally, there are a few bad reviews that we could not help but notice! Here’s our favorite negative review that the cafe received. Review By Alex M From Singapore “I went there with a friend for an afternoon drink. When we arrived, the staff was not very welcoming, a bit rude. I ordered a fresh juice (cucumber, pineapple, and celery) and my friend a chai latte. I got a cucumber + water mixed drink, there was no pineapple at all for sure, no taste. My friend got a cup of hot milk with a teabag! I order chai latte very often, I have never seen this. When I asked if there was missing some ingredients in my juice, the waiter told me they could not make me a new one because the "fresh" juices were made in the morning (it was 6 pm). I changed for tea, but I had to pay the price of the juice, which was more expensive.” Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): 1. How Many Cafes In Paris? There are over 5000 (and increasing at the moment) cafes in Paris at the moment. Although Cafe Creme is one of many aesthetic locations to sip coffee in Paris yet, there’s no other place where you will find cafe creme cigars! 2. What Is French Coffee? Of course, French coffee refers to the way French people have coffee. This coffee does not have to be made with French coffee beans, and in most cases, the coffee is not even obtained from the French press. Simply put, French coffee is the espresso-type coffee drank by French people at outdoor places. 3. Do French Cafés Serve Alcohol? French cafes are not actual cafes. Instead, these are actual cafe spaces with restaurant-quality food that you can eat at any time, a complete bar, and even a fine selection of wines. The sky is the limit when it comes to Paris, and you must visit the city! Conclusion There’s no denying that Cafe Creme has managed to stay relevant over the last several years and even now continues to evolve at a fast pace. So if you are planning to visit this famous coffee shop on the beautiful streets of Paris, what are you waiting for? Visit today!

If you are traveling to India for the first time, you’ll for sure feel a little bit overwhelmed, confused and excited at the same time. Adjusting to the culture shock, frenetic energy and diversity will take some time. But worry not, once you get used to the Indian ways, you’ll develop a special bond with this place that will urge you to come back again and again. If you are travelling to India, here are a few facts about India to keep in mind before and while you are on your trip: Craziest Things To Know If You Are Traveling To India For The First Time Indian travel reaches a new high in the first quarter of 2024. Indian airports have enjoyed the footfall of around 376 million passengers. Further, 69.6 million in this traffic were international passengers.  Moreover, the numbers show a massive improvement compared to 2019. Also, there is a 15% growth from the records in 2023. These numbers show why traveling in India is so huge this year. So, it is no surprise that you are planning a trip to India this year. Is this the first time for you to visit this land of spirituality? Keep some smart tips handy to avoid travel hassles. 1. EXPLORE A PLACE AND TAKE YOUR TIME When you are traveling to India for the first time, don’t hop from one place to another too soon because then you won’t really get a feel of the real India and experience the place deeply. Take your time with a place. Stay there for a few days. Also, visit different sites in that place, get to know the local people and traditions of the place, and relish the experience. For example, if you go to Kerala in South India, then stay there for at least 9 -10 days, exploring the local food and culture and different festivals.Many top-notch yoga retreats in India are also held in Kerala. If you want to experience the true spiritual gift of India, that is, yoga and meditation, you can attend a yoga and meditation retreat or a yoga teacher training course in one of the best yoga schools in Kerala. 2. EXPLORE MORE THAN JUST THE CITIES The real beauty of India lies not only in the cities of India but also in the cities in the natural world. The forests, the majestic mountains, the motherly rivers, the gorgeous oceans, the pristine beaches, and the divine landscapes will surely give you the experience of a lifetime. Travel to the Himalayas in north India, the beaches of south India, the Western Ghats, and the Mangrove forests in the east and experience a deeper connection with Mother Nature. 3. DRESS ACCORDINGLY In most parts of India, the dress code is Indian sarees and traditional Indian clothes though many people in the cities wear western clothing as well. Please wear clothes that cover your body appropriately, especially when you are visiting the rural parts of India, temples, mosques, etc. It is also a custom in India to open your shoes outside while visiting a temple or a religious site. 4. RESPECT THE INDIAN PEOPLE AND THE INDIAN CULTURE Most Indians are very warm-hearted, which is truly one of the best qualities of Indian people. They are welcoming and love it when people from around the world visit the country. Be respectful to the Indian people and Indian culture. The Indian people will greet you with warmth and acceptance. Make sure you can be humble and return the same. 5. BE PREPARED TO EXPLORE DEEP SPIRITUALITY One of the most well-known facts about India is that it is the origin of yoga and meditation. Many top-level yoga and meditation schools offer yoga retreats in India. If you genuinely want to feel the deep spiritual connection of India and want to learn the ancient art of yoga and meditation, then you can enroll yourself in one of the best yoga schools in India. Some of the best yoga schools of India are in Kerala in South India and Rishikesh in North Indian at the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains. 6. KEEP AN OPEN MIND Keeping an open mind is a great way to travel the land of India as you will see things that you did not expect to, like children asking for food while you are stuck in traffic. “In the 2023 Global Hunger Index, India ranks 111th out of the 125 countries with sufficient data to calculate 2023 GHI scores. With a score of 28.7 in the 2023 Global Hunger Index, India has a level of hunger that is serious.” 7. AVOID PDA Avoid public displays of affection towards your partners, as this is not a common thing in the culture of India. Avoid kissing and excess public display of affection as a respect for the Indian culture 8. TRY OUT THE INDIAN FOOD You will find all kinds of foods, dishes, and cuisines in India that will relish your taste buds. You can try out the North Indian dishes, the south Indian dishes, and the local food of whichever place you travel to. Be mindful of the water you are consuming and make sure it is purified. Most places have clean water to drink, but it is advised to be mindful. 9. GET A SIM CARD Getting a sim card would be helpful as you can use the internet to have easy navigation through the landscapes of India. A sim card will allow you to navigate google maps, best restaurants, and make calls to your home country. Though only Indians can buy a SIM card in India, you can ask your trusted Indian friend to buy you a SIM card. There are also special provisions for sim cards for foreigners. 10. UNDERSTAND THE UNSPOKEN INDIAN LANGUAGE Indians communicate a lot without words and just simple hand gestures or head nods. The classic Indian head nod is one of the most common communication methods in India. Usually, it means yes or no, depending on the context. Understanding the unspoken Indian language can make your trip interesting and can be helpful too. 11. BEWARE OF PICKPOCKETS While this advice applies to many places around the globe, it is always a good idea to keep your cash, cards, and belongings safe, especially in the populated cities of India. 12. FIND A TRUSTWORTHY INDIAN FRIEND WHO CAN GUIDE YOU It is also wise to have a trustworthy Indian friend who can help you out in a foreign country and guide you in case you are confused about something. Knowing someone trustworthy and intelligent in India who can help out is also an advantage. 13. DO YOUR RESEARCH Do a good in-depth research of India and the places that call out to you the most in India. India is a vast country, and it is not advised to cover the whole country in one short trip. Do your research and see which places you feel the most drawn to and then make a detailed itinerary of your trip. 14. KEEP YOUR CALM Scamsters, touts, etc. often target foreigners to make some quick bucks by simply luring them with good deals which are not in fact, good deals. You’ll come across different people (agents, cab drivers, etc.) who’ll insist on giving you the best deals (maybe hotel charges, tour packages). But don’t lose your head over these things. Simply keep your calm and try to show them that you know better. Slowly you’ll learn the tricks to handle such people. 15. DON'T HESITATE TO BARGAIN Indian markets are colorful and have some beautiful things like leather bags, clothes, artifacts, and so much more that you can buy. However, some shop keepers give a higher price to those traveling from another country. Don’t be afraid to bargain and get a reasonable price for your purchase. Sharpen your bargaining skills and have fun with it. Is India Safe To Travel For Women? (Most) Important Things To Know Before Traveling To India For The First Time As I write this article, the cry of #JusticeforRGKar becomes more prominent to me. A month has passed since the rape and murder of a lady PG doctor of the Pulmonology department in the R G Kar Medical College and Hospital. Kolkata is the capital city of West Bengal, a state in the eastern part of India.  There is still a protest going on, and people from all walks of life are participating in it with a suspicion of state machinery’s involvement in the case. Further, it aches my heart, but I have to mention that Delhi experienced one of the heinous acts of rape and murder a few years back in the form of the Nirbhaya case.  People across borders are aware of these incidents today. So, the question of women’s safety while traveling to India is obvious. Further, if we look at the Booking.com travel predictions for 2024, we can see that 54% of women will likely embrace solo travel instead of a couple or group trip.  Nevertheless, let’s get back to the question here, and allow me to assure you that India is fairly safe for women travelers.  The data from the “National Commission for Women” and “National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB)” are not-so-pleasing. I don’t want to share the figures, either! However, the women-only travel groups are making it easier for every woman traveling to India for the first time or even for the 100th time.  The WOW Club, or Women on Wanderlust, and Women On Clouds Club, or WOC, are two of the most popular women-only travel groups in India. So, as Hannah goes for a girl trip with her mother in “Girls,” get ready for traveling to India for the first time!  Read Also: 8 Amazing Things To Do In Delhi For First Time Tourists Complete Guide For A Pleasant Agra Tour The Easy Way To Travel In India Top Most Expensive Hotels Of India To Enjoy And Stay Your Holidays
