    Nandhu,

    What do you want? You name the cuisine, and I will suggest. What you should really not miss is places like this.

    Aavin Paal
    Madras Bhelpuri @ Pondy Bazzar
    Mansukh's Thepla and Dhokla
    Brilliant Tutorials Kaiendhi Bhavan's Ennai Podi Dosai
    Krishna Sweets Masala Poli
    Sanjeevanam's Rajbhog meal or something like that. It comes with 5 drinks, and 4 salads. Awesome!
    Grandsweets's 10 clock thayir sadham. Devamritham it is!
    and their kuzhi paniyarams
    If you have the time and the dying effort to try - Sowcarpet's Murukku sandwich and Masala Tea.
    A shop opposite to Dasaprakash serves icecream sandwiches too:)
    And of course, on the restaurants side - try Dosa calling, Flamingo, Nala's aapa kadai and Rasam ( their elaneer payasam :)!!

    Hi Nadhu,

    Welcome welcome

    My pointers are

    1.Palimar@VegNation - ever never miss this..excellent place for veggies - The good old palimar(Gemini building,near gemini flyover) has been renovated by Cavin Care and christened as "VegNation"...as the name implies, really a nation for veggie maniacs...Shooters'nu energy drink tharuvaan(very little) 10Rs i guess..chanceless..so many avrieties in it..Ask them their speciality,the waiters will help you..Edho cashew gravy forgot the name..dont miss it

    2.Crimson chakra near gandhinagar club is a great place for dinner(buffet)..Run by sureshmenon(revathy husband)..

    3.Eden in besant nagar

    4.Bombay talkies in cathedral road(under the flyover to radha krishnan salai)..Purre veg north indian restaurant

    5.If possible try few food courts in IT parks like (Tidel,Ascendas,Olympia)

    6.Food court in Ampa skywalk mall..ulla ponoma westside,mochi,diya,soch'nu branded kadaliyila shopping pannoma..food court'al saptoma..oru cinema partomaanu enjoy pannunga..good mall with less but branded showrooms..mini walmart madhiri you have star bazaar..

    7.Barbeque nation -Hanumantha rd,North usman rd,T nagar dhaan ippo hot selling...Non-veg'na sema party..ofcourse veg is also great..i like the starters and desserts..diner buffet is the best time..worth spending:thumbsup..menu has 5 veg, 5 non-veg staters,1 veg 1 non-veg soup, 4 non-veg, 6 veg in main course with roti & naan, 3 non-veg, 5 veg salads & 7 desserts

    Thatz all for now..will update soon...


    Try these too:-
    Venkateswara poli store's "Soodaana Jilebi"..never miss it..Punjabi dhaba in cenotoph ra is also famous for this

    FreezZone icecream(ttk rd,alwarpet)

    Nandhu; your plates are full :). I am not a chennaivaasi and my experience is my one month vac last July;)
    Still I will suggest one more to your list ; Sigree Nungambakkam in Quality Inn Aruna.Its a speciality restuarant. They serve both V and NV; so I am not sure how comfy you will be about that.
    Great ambience and great food. My MIL still vouch on their mango juice:))
    Their buffet is awesome; with big A for the price:). They have mainland china in the same building;Quality Inn Aruna (2nd floor if my memory is right). Its a hip place. A good place for night out. We went inside mistaking it to be Sigree and J's Sil got a shock:)) Both these places are classy.

    I have heard Kumarakom is a good eatery; but didn't get time to venture.
    Happy Vacationing;)
