Midnight,

sobs.  Peter Reading, Midnight, 1994

Now, Delhi is full of grand hotels.  In ring roads and sewage pipes you might have an edge in Beijing, but in pomp and splendour, were second to none in Delhi.  Weve got the Sheraton, the Imperial, the Taj Palace, Taj Mansingh, the Oberoi, the Intercontinental, and many more.  Now, the five-star hotels of Bangalore I know inside out, having spent thousands of rupees eating kebabs of chicken, mutton, and beef in their restaurants, and picking up sluts of all nationalities in their bars, but the five-stars of Delhi are things of mystery to me.  Aravind Adiga, The White Tiger p200
