I have a day to eat around in the city. I’m looking for the most iconic street food recommendations. Not new age viral places - but places that define Surat. Places that have been around for years and serve things that are the most authentic and definitive to Surat. Think of places where people would take visitors and places where people have been going for generations. Example, tomato bhajiyas, surti locho, and more.

Thank you in advance!

Any Nolan fans here?

What's everyone planning for this one? Also, where are you guys planning to watch this masterpiece?

Hi everyone,

I'm 26M and have been working in a corporate job for a few years. Until recently, I was working mostly on-site, where interactions were straightforward and usually work-related

A few weeks ago, I shifted to the corporate office, and it's been a completely different experience. Everyone seems to know each other, they're chatting, having coffee together, joking around, while I mostly sit at my desk and only talk when it's related to work.

I'm naturally an introvert, so starting conversations doesn't come naturally to me. It's not that I don't want to talk—I just never know what to say or how to join a conversation without feeling awkward or like I'm interrupting.

sometimes worry that people might think I'm unfriendly or arrogant, when in reality I'm just quiet.

For those of you who were in a similar situation:

How did you start talking to coworkers?

What are some easy conversation starters that don't feel forced?

Is it okay to stay quiet, or should I actively try to socialize?

How long did it take you to feel comfortable in a new office?

I'd really appreciate any advice or personal experiences. Thanks..

I approached a girl named Avni in Beyond Hemp Cafe at around 9:30 PM today. I just complimented her but I was not able to get her insta id. Can people of surat help me get in contact with her. 😭😭

I'm a 31M who recently moved from Delhi to Surat for work.

I work in the admin department at a school, and there's a teacher from another department (28F) who has completely caught my attention.

We've talked a handful of times. Nothing extraordinary—just small conversations in the hallway, a few smiles, work-related chats. But somewhere along the way, my brain decided, "Yep, we're doing this now."

The funny part is that she seems like a very typical Surat girl—soft-spoken, close to her colleagues, and pretty reserved. Meanwhile, I'm from Delhi, where people are generally a lot more direct. I can't tell if she's just being polite, friendly, or if there's even the slightest bit of interest.

The bigger issue is the workplace. Asking someone out at a school feels risky. I don't want to make her uncomfortable, create awkwardness, or become "that admin guy who asked out a teacher." At the same time, I also don't want to spend months wondering "what if?"

So now I'm stuck in that weird limbo:

Is she just being nice?

Or should I simply enjoy the harmless crush and let it fade?

For people who've been in a similar situation—especially in India or conservative workplaces—what would you do?

I'd genuinely appreciate honest advice.
