What happens when you perform Street magic in Mangalore? | jQuest | Jaison Dias

We went around the streets of Mangalore to perform some amazing magic tricks, in front of random strangers. We meet these energetic youngsters, for whom we performed this magic trick. 

I asked them to select any random numbers in-between 1 and 5. They selected 3, 4, 5 and 1. Then I asked them to add all the numbers together, the total was 13. 

As the crowd was getting curious, I removed 13 cards out of the deck of 52 playing cards. To involve the audience I asked them to hold their hands out. I divided the 13 cards into 4 sets and placed them on their hands. So, each had few cards with them. 

The numbers which they choose was completely random. The magic trick was not setup in any way. The crowd was excited to watch the magic. So, I asked them to turn over the top card, of the set which they were holding onto. All the top cards were Aces. You can watch the card trick in the video. 

Check out the following video for the actual performance. Once you watch the video come back and continue reading this article to know the secret behind this trick. 

This is a very simple magic trick, which I learnt in few minutes. If I can do it, then even you can; even the beginners can perform without any hassle. All you need is a deck of playing cards and little practice. Once you have these you can impress anyone!

The most incredible article about destroyer burger you'll ever read!

Hello Friends, Have you held a huge burger in your hands?

What happens when you try out the “Destroyer Burger” at “Knock Knock Burger Bistro”?

What happened is unbelievable, check out the following video:  

Here is something on the place “Knock Knock Burger Bistro”. I, along with Daniel Pereira and Joel decided to try out the burger at Burger Bistro and review the place. The Burger Bistro is located near Nanthoor. The place is open from 11 A.M to 10:30 P.M.

Address: City Gate Complex,Kadri, Nanthoor Road, Near Ballal Garage, Mangaluru, Karnataka 575002

We had received a request to review “The Destroyer” burger at “Knock Knock Burger Bistro”. The Destroyer burger is made up of three layers of meat which is Chicken, Lamb and Turkey. With extra cheese and egg on it. It weighs 600 gms. It is priced at Rs. 490 for the burger and Extra cheese is Rs. 25. It’s huge and it is difficult to hold. However, the meat is tasty and you can enjoy every bite. You can share the burger with a friend and still fill your hunger.

We also ordered Lamb and Turkey meat Burger (Rs. 340), Lamb Burrito (Rs. 180), Lime Soda (Rs. 50/each), Lemonade (Rs.50/each), and Extra Cheese (Rs. 25 /each).

The place is designed classy and antique. It was very peaceful; you can also spend your time with your loved one. The music which was played was classy and not too loud. The service was good and respectful. There are hand sanitizers, tissues and Sauce on every table. However, there are very less number of tables. The lights are set at right brightness to get the delightful effect of romance. There are lots of old record chases hung on the wall. There is also working old antique clock. The place is clean and well maintained.

The Burger was tasty; however the bread/bun size is very much greater than the patty. The meat was well cooked. They served it really fast once they got the order (When we visited the waiting time was less). The destroyer burger is huge, it might be little difficult to eat the burger directly. We had also tried out the Lime soda and Lemonade, they come in small cups. It was not worth for the price because the quantity was very less.

Have you tried out the Burger Bistro?

Exploring the Mirjan Fort!

Few days ago, I received a call from a close friend Safu, who was planning a day trip to visit Mirjan Fort. I was very excited and I couldn't wait more!

I reached the Mangalore Railway Station around 7:40 A.M. and parked my vehicle there. I met Safu and Rakesh at the station.

We had our breakfast and boarded the 8:15 Mangalore-Madgao route train. It was a local train, so there was no sleeper coaches. The train was delayed due to railway crossings. This gave us more time to talk and catch up with each other. We started sharing our travel and adventurous experiences and also began planning for more such trips.

The best part about the train journey was the scenery, amongst the green land with hills and mountains. Also the rivers and streams along the train route. You will also get few tunnels on the way, some with waterfalls inside them.

We reached the Kumta Railway Station around 12:45. We took a auto rickshaw to the town to have lunch. We had an awesome meal then we boarded a taxi to the Mirjan Fort. You can also take a bus however the fort is around 1.5 Km from the bus stop. If you take the auto rickshaw they will drop you till the fort (confirm while you get in).

The rickshaw driver dropped us at the Mirjan Fort.  We explored most of the fort area.  The view was breath taking, with nice view and greenery everywhere.

You can watch the video of the fort at:

Then we took a rickshaw back to the Kumta Railway Station, then we boarded the 4:00 PM train back to Mangalore. We took Sleeper coach tickets and we reached back to Mangalore around 8:30 P.M. It was an adventure experiences.

DIY: Lamasa Art

Make something for your loved one using Lamasa art. You can easily prepare the lamasa clay in 15 minutes with easy to follow steps. Make sure you take help of an adult for cooking process. I have made a heart shaped Pendant using this technique. 

Lamasa is clay like substance; it is made by mixing and heating commonly available ingredients, such as corn flour, lime juice, zinc oxide powder and glue. It is like air-dry clay or craft porcelain clay.

You will need following items to make the lamasa dough:

1/2 cup craft glue

1/2 cup corn flour

1/2 tbsp zinc oxide powder

1/2 lime juice

1 tbsp glycerin

Oil-based cold cream

Clear wrap

Aluminum vessel

Airtight container

Acrylic colors

You can watch the video of making of the Lamasa Art at:

Click Here to Watch the Video

Making of the Dough:

Mix corn flour, lime juice, zinc oxide powder and glue. You can also add glycerin. Glue acts as a binder for the ingredients and helps create smooth dough. Mix everything well, then heat the mixture in an aluminum vessel on a medium flame heat. Stir well and do not let vessel to get too hot. Stir for about two minutes until the dough stops sticking to the vessel. Remove the dough from the vessel and roll it into a ball. Wrap the dough with clear wrap using a plastic.

Handling the Dough:

You can store this mixture in an air tight container or use it directly. You can make any shapes as you desire from this lamasa dough. I have used heart shaped mould frame and added a quote on the mould. I have made the quote messages tags out of craft paper and placed in the mould frame while I placed the dough into the mould. Press the lamasa dough firmly into the mould frame so that it occupies the same shape of the frame. Once you have applied the dough firmly then let it dry for few days.  It will solid hard once it is dried completely.

Coloring the lamasa dough:

You can either add color to the Lamasa dough once it is cooled down or before creating shapes. You can also paint the objects once it is dried. You can make it more creative by adding creative colors.

What can you make out of Lamasa art?

You can create various items using the lamasa art. You can create crafts like pen holder, pendant, ring, greeting card, etc. 

Please let us know what you have tried using lamasa art, you can leave your ideas in the comments below. If you have any other creative DIY art ideas, you can also mention in the comments below.

We planned to get something to eat after the dance class. We planned to go some place else, however the rains started to pour heavily. So we decided to catch some place close and that was Icy Creamz.

The road trip journey, above and over the hills!

The road trip journey to Kudremukh – Kalasa Tea Estate.  A retreat to the luscious chain of mountains of Kudremukh.  It was amazing road trip journey of 278 Kms in the cool weather. 

You can watch the video of the road trip at:

I started my journey from Mangalore -via Mangalore Airport Road - Moodbidri – Belvai – Miyar – Kudremukh. Before you enter the Kudremukh national park you have to check in at the Kudremukh check post, then it’s the road trip a among the green Kudremukh national park. You will pass via Kurinjaal peak in the Kudremukh range and then take the Kalasa main road. Then while you exist the national park range area you have to check out at the Kalasa check post.

The Kalasa is after the Kudremukh check-out point.  The tea estate is situated just about 5-8 Kms from the Kudremukh check out point. It is a green stretchy hill of tea estate. I walked all the way up the hill, through the slippery path and water streams.
