The
Tornos Club
At
Tornos we celebrate intellect. As a part of this celebration we
have created a few clubs or rather a group of like-minded
individuals who wish to share, learn and contribute to the subject
of their choice.
We
meet regularly at The Tornos Studio
and at The Tornos Terrace to experience the joys of
intellect and talk about our favourite subjects. Join this club
by simply writing to us and if we feel you meet the parameters set
by us, we will be pleased to make you a part of The Tornos Club. Enjoy
great food, great wines, refreshing brews of tea and coffee and
enrich yourself intellectually...
Drinks
and food be the style. Enjoy learning all about great drinks and
food. How about cooking, serving and eating. This one is not just
talking about Awadhi Cuisine that undoubtedly is the star
attraction when one talks of Lucknow, but an international cuisine
that is now indigenous and has adapted to the local palate as if
it always was ours.
Indian
Mutiny of 1857 is no less than an epic written and re-written.
World over this subject has attracted the best of writers and
researchers and toady we talk about it again and revisit each
aspect. We stock an enviable collection of book on the subject and
draw experts to talk on it.
No
less than a fairytale is a bygone era that is still referred to
when one speaks of style. Be it the grandeur in interiors or
exteriors of a building, fashion, furniture, tea, language et al.
We at Tornos Club revisit this majestic era, discover and
re-discover this great era and its immaculate styles.
La
Martiniere is a name that stirs great memories and it is always a
topic of discussion when two old students meet. We meet to talk
and share old fond memories over a drink. Know more about the
school, than what you ever did when you went to it.
Mysticism,
awesome, grand and many more superlatives associated with the
Nawabs of Awadh come alive at this club. Talk about an era that
was talked about among the British in England and the Britons
envied the richness that eventually led to its downfall. Its about
men who ruled with utter grace yet were so amicable that the
subject treated them just next to God. The Courtly grace was felt
on the streets and in the lanes of this fabled city.
