An evening in Park Street

Recently I visited my home. For a change of taste, one nice evening three of us, my mother, sister and myself decided to go out for a dinner. Very soon we were wandering in the pavements of Park Street looking for a suitable resturant (my mother has strong reservations against consumption of alcohol). We kept on walking and rejecting since all of them are BARS. We were running out of options. Frustrated, I decided to enter whatever comes into our sight first. After some time we found ourselves infront of a posh resturant (some complicated French name I do not remember). Gathering some courage took some more time and at last we decided to venture into it. Well ...... we were the odd group out. My mother was shocked to see that even teen agers were drinking happily with their parents (and I was happily shocked by their mindblowing fashion). Then sarted the live music. My mother grew more tense. Me and my sister kept on telling her to be relaxed, but to no avail. What was wrong with the music ? In the mean time, we had our food served and focussed on it ( not an easy task in that ambient, with so many beautiful distractions). Anyway, we managed to finish, were out of the resturant and I was happy to see sigh of relief from my mother.

"What made you so tensed ?"
"Oh, no ... they started playing the live music."
"So what ?"
"Oh ......... I thought they will start cabaret dence next. Thank god, it did not happen."
Well ...... so that was it. I was little disappointed .... I missed something.
