recommendations ..

I love them ..

not the ones we approach and obtain from our professors (the process is really sucky.. especially for undergrads).. its different at this level though..

back to basics .. I depend on recommendations for a lot of things, I think I am not adventurous in these aspects ..
a. Good food, would love to have someone tried before I venture in .. especially east asian cullinary
b. Books, I am not a voracious reader, hence would prefer my friends remove the bad ones
c. Movies - again some are really stupid and hence require good reviews here from known ppl..
but I am more adventurous here, can bear 2-3 hours torture ..

so anything new and good ?? let me know ..
