India Web Resources

Travel:
Entertainment:
Stores:
  • http://www.fabindia.com/  - Organic soaps, food, and classic Indian clothing made of really beautiful fabric.  I'm totally addicted to these stores.
  • http://www.bibaindia.com/ - On trend women's Indian clothing
  • http://www.wforwoman.com/ - On trend women's Indian clothing
  • One can also find some good Indian pieces at the American-style department stores that have sprung up throughout India such as Shoppers Stop, Lifestyle,Westside, and Pantaloon (all seem to be mandated to play bad American top 40 music, funnily enough).  However, the western clothing at these stores isn't that great in terms of fit, quality, and style.
Food:
  • http://www.cafecoffeeday.com/ - India's lamely monikered equivalent to Starbucks (origins in Bangalore).  These are ubiquitous and good to duck into when you're hard pressed to find a clean restroom (which is basically anytime you are outside of someone's home).
