Big time mutton biryani paglu here. I have eaten from almost all restaurants offline and online that serve CR but my all time fav is Nazeer’s Masala Mutton Biryani.

Pieces are tender, masala is 👌, slim green pickles mixed evenly in the rice, long full rice cooked just perfectly.

Sometimes though, they put a lot of oil. You gotta ask them to go slow on it. It can get greasy.

But taste wise, nothing comes close

A++

🏆🏆

My pick is the golgappa guy near the theka, the one that is in front of the big chakhna dukaan near the theka.

Paani is too good. Just the right amount of spice and sour. Perfect balance. 10/10 🏆

We have a professor around us.

“Ask Ghaziabad” flair hai kyunki aur koi flair chamkaa nahi

Hey Ghaziabad, Crossings Republik is a bustling society with over 10,000+ homes, but, it has no subreddit.

So I made one! Here is the link - r/crossingsrepublik

Aaj hi banaya hai, aur saare posts mere hi hain!

So the ask is to join and contribute if you are living here or have fond memories from here

(Mods bhai / behen, please don’t ban, if this post breaks any rules, please maafi 🙏🏼)

Somebody in r/gaurcity reminded me of the days when our beloved gol chakkar fountain used to function properly 🌊🌊🌊

What can be done to get it working again?

Making a list of the best eateries in Crossings Republik. Will keep expanding the list as and when others join and contribute

- Grill House (both vegetarian and non vegetarian curries are the best according to me in Crossings Republik 👌, never disappoints, a little pricey but totally worth it. My fav dishes from Grill House are Masala Paneer Tikka and Mutton Curry)

- Jaiswal Champaran Mutton (new eatery, poori ghar jaisi tari, full-on Bihari flavours, a little on the spicy 🌶️ side so avoid if spice is not your thing, ask for champ pieces)

- Khadak Singh (consistent taste across all dishes, too much butter though)

- Lucknow waale special kabab (their boti mutton is well cooked, and ofcourse their kebab parantha)

Was facing a recurring Vitamin B12 issue, which was a little tricky to diagnose.

Went to multiple doctors. Dr Raman, instead of listening to my physiological issues, started lecturing me about doing yoga and spirituality.

Then I saw this doosra namoona. Dr Sachin Sharma, isko toh Doctor bolne ka bhi mann nahi. The moment he saw that I have come with my own research, he got insecured and started shaking his head to everything I had to say. Started gaslighting me by saying things like Google mat kiya karo etc etc.

Shit doctors, both. Zero professionalism.

Finally, saw Dr Abhishek. Solid professional. Talks like a learned man. Doesn’t jump to conclusions. He ordered a couple of tests after hearing me out patiently, never once questioned my research(infact agreed with a lot of it and disagreed with what did not make biological sense), and most importantly, did not get into lecturing me. A very secured doctor.

Got started on his prescribed meds and I feel like a different person!

Easily the best GP in Crossings Republik.

One thing B2B Tech / SaaS figured out a long time ago is that the list carries the campaign. Copy matters, sure, but the teams that consistently crush outbound are the ones layering signals to find people at the moment they're most likely to buy. A leadership change, a fundraise, a product expansion, the likes. I've watched mediocre sequences outperform polished ones by a wide margin purely because the targeting was sharper.

The question that kept bugging me was why this thinking hasn't crossed over into trades. Plumbing, electrical, HVAC; these industries all have their own buying signals. They're just not on LinkedIn because they are buried deep in government filings.

I tested this with commercial HVAC in New York. I wrote a script that pulls building permits, emissions filings, violation records, and property tax data from the city's open data portals. There's a 10-digit building ID that ties all these datasets together. I set up filters for buildings with HVAC systems untouched for 20+ years, open mechanical violations from city inspectors, or pending emissions fines under a climate law called Local Law 97.

Out of the entire city, 7,453 buildings cleared the filter. The average HVAC system in that group is 51 years old. 4,689 of those buildings carry active violations, which means an inspector walked through the door and put the problems on paper. 425 are exposed to annual fines around $2M starting 2030.

On the contact side, I pushed owner and management company names through a verification pipeline. This is where NYC real estate gets tricky; the majority of buildings sit under LLCs like "354 Hamilton LLC" and "9028 Sutphin LLC." No website, no LinkedIn, nothing for a traditional enrichment tool to grab onto. But wherever a web footprint existed, the pipeline found contacts.

Here's where the dataset stands:

- 7,453 buildings with scored urgency signals and $895M in combined LL97 fine exposure starting 2030
- 51 verified emails, on buildings averaging 97,000 sqft with $8M in combined fine exposure
- ~120 phone numbers
- 2,107 decision-maker names identified, tied to buildings sitting on $85M in combined fine exposure and 23,000 open violations between them
- A mailing address for every single building on the list

The buildings where enrichment drew a blank aren't useless. You have a name from the deed, a street address, and documentation from the city saying the equipment needs work. That's a direct mail piece with real specifics, or a site visit where you already know what the inspector flagged before you walk through the door. Nobody else calling on that building will have that.

There are companies like Convex built around selling this kind of layered property signal data - thousands per month per seat. Apollo and ZoomInfo don't carry it because it doesn't live on the internet. It lives in city inspector reports and regulatory databases. If you can code and know how to pull public records, you can build the same thing for any trade in any market.

Having done 10+ years of cold emailing for B2B Tech / SaaS, I have realized that the list > copy. Always. I have seen average / bad copy outshine punchily crafted sequences by a mile just because these teams layer signals like job change, funding raised, new leadership hire, a new product launch and many, many others. Every single time.

So I started thinking about applying the same mental model to trades. Almost every industry has a series of signals of purchase-ready prospects and all it needs is serious merging of multiple such signals programmatically.

For example, commercial HVACs. I coded a script that pulls building permits, emissions filings, violation records, and property tax data from NYC's open data portals. Every building in New York has a 10-digit ID that links across all these datasets. I filtered for buildings where the HVAC system hasn't been touched in 20+ years, the building has open mechanical violations from the city, or faces emissions fines under a climate law called Local Law 97.

7,453 buildings came out. Average HVAC system age: 51 years. 4,689 of them have active violations, meaning a city inspector physically walked in and told the owner their equipment has problems. 425 face fines averaging $2M/year starting 2030.

For contact enrichment, I ran the owner and management company names through a lookup and verification pipeline. Most NYC building owners are LLCs like "354 Hamilton LLC" and "9028 Sutphin LLC" that don't have websites, so traditional enrichment tools return nothing for them. But we still know what every single one of those buildings is, where it is, who owns it on paper, and exactly which signals are firing on it. For the ones where web presence did exist, the pipeline returned verified contacts.

Current dataset:

- 7,453 buildings with scored urgency signals, sitting on $895M in combined LL97 fine exposure starting 2030
- 51 verified email addresses, covering buildings averaging 97,000 sqft with $8M in combined fine exposure
- ~120 phone numbers
- 2,107 identified decision-maker names, controlling buildings with $85M in combined fine exposure and 23,000 open violations between them
- Full mailing addresses for every building in the list

The buildings without digital contact info aren't dead leads. They're buildings where you know the owner's name, the building address, and the fact that the city has already told them their equipment needs work. That's a direct mail campaign or a door knock with context that no other vendor walking in will have.

There are companies like Convex that charge thousands per month per seat to give commercial service teams this kind of signal-layered property data. Apollo and ZoomInfo will never have it because it doesn't come from LinkedIn or company websites. It comes from city inspectors and regulatory filings. If you know how to pull public data and write code, you can build this for any vertical in any city.
