And that is one reason to get off of your lazy arse and explore new places(specially Cafes, Delhi has to offer)!

Rose Cafe can be described as a perfect blend of ambiance, soft music and scrumptious food. It looks like one of those old creek cottages that you’d expect to find in a village somewhere in Ireland or France; adorned with climber plants and flowers, painted with subtle shades of pink and blue. If you like working outdoors, there is also a small open garden seating.

Moreover, you can sit here and work for hours on and nobody would bother you. This place is also a host to a variety of workshops like photography, blogging, music, backpacking, etc.
