Tastes Of TamilNadu

Cream Centre, R A Puram, Chennai: Had a decent Vegetarian food! Just you go for Chat and Ice Creams: Over the years, Cream Centre has always been synonymous with vegetarian upscale dining. A nice elaborate menu with options ranging from chat to momos to sizzlers to pizza or even pasta. I have been here a few times, but many years ago. I remember the food to be very tasty. We ordered: Veg Manchow Soup, one by two Pani Puri Original Paneer Tikka Cheesy Nachos American Corn Cheese Balls New York New York pizza Mac n Three Cheese Bhatura and Channa Masala Orange ice cream Soda Chaach Soup was good, but the crispy noodles could have been fresh. Pani puri was fantastic, we loved it! Paneer Tikka should have been in the Tandoor for a little longer, hardly any smoky aroma as in a Tikka. The mint chutney lacked punch and didn't do anything to elevate the taste either. Cheesy Nachos was good, but felt too pricey for what was offered, Cheese balls were just passable. Overall, the starters did...

Nandhana Palace, Navalur, Chennai: A nice and tasty lunch outing with my family after a long time! No words, can describe the Spicy yet tasty food of famous Legendary Andhra chain in Chennai, none other than, Nandhana Palace. It's meals are to be tasted in the restaurant piping hot with Andhra podi and ghee, they are safe bet.

I wanted to something new today and here's the review: Here's what I tasted this time: Mutton bone soup 1 non-veg platter 3 Mutton Biryani 1 veg meals 5 Malai matka Soup was just warm, would have liked it slightly hotter. Tasted wonderful though. Meat fall off the bones easy and added pepper was very tasty and felt good. We were planning to order three starters and that's when the waiter recommended to order the non-veg platter - add one more dish, but the price would be 200 less than the individual prices added up.

Sea Emperor, Madipakkam : A wonderful lunch with family, and a long-time wish to order Kuzhi Mandi, done well! Sea Emperor, Madipakkam, Location: Sea Emperor, plot no 11, 12, Bazaar Main Rd, Ram Nagar Police check post, Ram Nagar South, Madipakkam, Chennai, Tamil Nadu 600091. About Mandi: Kuzhi Mandi (pronounced Mandhi) is a technique of cooking meats layered over rice inside a pit, in such a way that when the meat cooks, the juices drip into the rice making it more flavorsome. This style of cooking has its origin in Yemen. It became quite popular in Kerala and now a few places serve this in Chennai too. When I saw that Sea Emperor served this, decided to try. It has been years since i visited this restaurant. In fact, at one time. It used to be the only good non-vegetarian restaurant in all of Madipakkam - Kaiveli area. We used to visit regularly many years ago. Recently they seemed to have renovated their restaurant and I haven't been there in a while. Decided to try 4 varietie...
