ECHOES : A restaurant with specially challenged staff

Yesterday I visited this small cafe in satyaniketan (Delhi) called ECHOES. This is like any other small cafe with an unusually amazing initiative. When asked the attendants about the table of our choice, they tried explaining with signs. After seeing the repeated sign language by 2 waiters, things became understood. The staff is differently abled. All of them could not hear or speak. 

The staff handed the menu (the ECHOnomics is the backside of it) and a pen-pad on which we can mention the dish code, quantity & any customization.

This switch is near every table. When you need to call to get attanded, you just press it and the bulb of your table number will flash on the counter.

These are the tags which are present in the tissue box. A tag to ask for the bill, to ask for fork/knife, to ask for menu or just a thank you. Simple one liners.

Talking about the place: it's very small.
Area : south campus, opposite venkateshwar college
price : economical
Quantity : very decent . more towards good.
quality : hygienic , good presentation and taste

P.S : This not an act of promoting the cafe but its appreciation. I am not writing because i am asked to or I will get something from them, but because I want to spread the good thought. This is one live example of corporate social responsibility (for students' reference )

A DAY WITHOUT MAKE-UP

Concealers, foundation, blushers and all the stuff you use everyday to get a second skin. It is good to look great and flawless but have you ever thought that your skin needs to breathe too ??

Makeup layers can hide your marks and give you an even tone skin. BUT, no makeup can make you as beautiful as you really are. Overdoing makeup everyday will HIDEYOU. You’ll look no new than everyday. Hence, no looking special. Actually, there is nothing wrong in wearing makeup, but  a “makeup free” time could give us a day to focus on who we are inside, rather than hiding behind the mask we normally put on during our daily beauty routines.

-Of course moisturizer and body lotion is important but not the makeup. Just a kohl/eye liner and a lip shade can give you a perfect pretty look. 

- Use accessories for hair, ears and hands and get more colorful and attractive. Every part of your body needs to get the same importance as your face.

- Do NOT worry if you have pimple marks.  You need not cover your marks and scars everytime.

- focus more on your hairstyle. No matter how pretty your face looks, if hair is not done properly, you’ll give a silly look.

- if your eyes are beautiful, focus more on them. Apply kohl or eye liners (winged shape may be) to make them more attractive.

- Never forget to wear a smile. It’s the most beautiful part of you especially if you get dimples  

- Do NOT get jealous. Jealously can give you pimples, tension, inferiority complex, a above all A CRUEL FACE that you would never like to have.

- Drink a lot of water to get a glow. Most of us do not have adequate water. Even if you don’t need it, believe me you need it! 

Every woman is beautiful if she believes. Eat healthy, do well, and feel pretty.

Makeup is not the solution. It is NOT permanent, do NOT get used to it.

Promise your skin to keep it as natural as it is, as longer as you can

Love yourself !!!! <3
