There is the small place (forgot the name, may be dhaba) run by punjabis on the same road as crossword in T.Nagar. The best punjabi food I have tasted till date. Must try.

There is (was?) a mobile joint (vandi kaddai) selling Nai Podi Dosais, Idly, Vada etc in front of Brilliant Tutrorials in TNagar. which used to be a great place to eat... and a boon for veggies. Would like to know if they are still around?

yepp mate its still around and his "nai podi's" make him more than what some of the iit grads that the brilliant tutorials make.......

Ive been to Hi Look, its open 24/7 yeah.
Went there when I was into hardcore gaming and used to play all night.

Yeah, its a realllllly old hotel, serves good chettinad food at really cheap prices. Its opposite Adyar bus stand.

1 club biriyani at the track => where is this track?
2 hotel ceylon .....remember this mates cause it open till 1:30 and try the mutton ceylon parotta its simply heavenly makes you forgive all the sins of the ltte and bless sri lanka,ride down cakes and bakes(nungambakkam and its there just on the lane where you will find pizza hut => I HAVE to try this out

3 just 3 blocks away is another mallu joint open until 1:30 good parotta and chicken curry => Is it close to pizza hut ?

4 mrc biriyani is standard and makes for good conversation good or bad => where is MRC?
5 karaikuddi is highly over rated the best is velu millitary in nungambakkam,but only good at lunch time => I agree Velu military is great.

also the best place to puke is the breezy beach,thiruvanmayur

For chaats try Ajnabee ( Fountain plaza ) Really good!

Also if any one is interested in sizzlers, Duchess on TTK road is really good!.. Though its not exactly cheap.. Arnd 200-240

Guys, what would you recommend in Chola Sheraton?

I have a gift voucher for 2000 bucks from there and need to take my family of 4 including me for lunch\dinner before the 20th of Dec(non veg without liquor).

Peshawar - Afghan Food. (this should make it 20 characters) !!

My dad used to hang out there with his friends during his college days.
I used to hang out there with my friends during my college days.

in fact everytime I go back to Chennai, make it a point to have tea out there with an old friend of mine.

miss my Adyar so much.

- Loyola fast food ( near loyola collegE)
- The dosa place near brilliant tutorials
- Vivs (on harrington road )
- Hotel cresent (open till 1am)
- Hi-look (thats near IIT, tea/ coffee/ juice and breadomlet till bout 2am, and from 7am)
and hazzar more...

there is a good 'kai enthi bhavan' near pondy bazaar, in front of brilliant tutorials, it is a veg fast food and they give excellent food. you should taste their 'nei podi thosai'

there is another restaurant for north indian food, near nadigar sangam called 'aashriwad' good taste ...

went to have lunch at ponnusamy today and i had a big fight, reason is ' i ordered for chicken briyani but got mutton briyani, asked the waiter to change and he also obliged, but it looks like they have removed mutton pieces and put chicken in the same briyani, when i asked the manager he said that it happens at times , when they run out, they would do a interchange of briyani, finally we said no payment for the briyani and came out. :Shockked:

ps: sorry to all the Veg bhp-ians for this non-veg stuff

you can try out their 'Dal Makhani' for veg, such superb taste i have not had anywhere

try mansukhs' in tnagar and also couple of chat shops in spencers plaza provide good chat items. you can also have a go at the shri mithai in chetpet/spencers
