See if a Bangalore Chennai drive meet could be organised some time in December or even in January, it would be too good. May be somewhere in Vellore, GRT Hotels or any other preferred choice :thumbup:.

Star Briyani at Ambur

Oh wait, the vegetarians if any in the group would feel kind of left out there.

Anyway - all for it, let us work something out. Someone was just commenting in the chennai tbhp whatsapp group that you bangalore folks keep doing long trips and one should be organized from Chennai.

Here comes a hard core vegetarian myself to spoil Star Biryani plans. :sly:.

But we should work out something. A small Hi to Ravi Sir, he will all be ready.

And I live not more than a short walk from that restaurant so we can certainly meet up quite soon. Various other tbhpians work in Adyar / the OMR, or live fairly close by (eg: Mandaveli) so that distance shouldn't be a major issue for them either.

Thanks, Enjoy!

I tend to avoid Whatsapp groups due to the large amount of traffic they tend to generate (and, I guess that, if they are worthwhile, they do!)

Everyone is invited. Kindly update the thread with your name if you can attend.

Thanks for organizing & most importantly inviting

Weekdays are little cumbersome for hobbies + timing is odd + distance is too much, can't battle traffic. Prefer a morning during weekends.

Will look forward for next time

Contact Rajarshi to get connected in the WA group.

Actually this started because quite a few people either live in South Chennai / work along the OMR and found a dinner at Adyar on a friday evening to work.

We'll surely do something on weekends quite soon - most likely a nice long drive somewhere, not had that for ages.

Tried this with a couple of colleagues on the way back from Bangalore. Me, a vegetarian, whereas they were hardcore non vegetarians. They did not like the food too much. They mentioned that the street food Biryani that we had in Bangalore was a lot better than Star "Biryani". The vegetarian option was good. They even made a dish for me that was not in the menu.

See you tomorrow.

Please see this post and continue reading posts. The Chennai guys were supposed to meet us at Tindivanam, and then CGB got himself banned, and then there's no further updates rom any of the Madrasis

In case all of you are still interested, this is happening tomorrow, Friday Nov 18. Please update the linked thread with your names.

See you folks tonight 7:30 at Hotel Runs. Those that aren't going on the Pondy - Tranquebar run of course.

I clean forgot about Pondy and would have joined in except that I have commitments over the weekend :(

Dont know how fast their service is, and how long it will take us to finish dinner. May be you could still catch us at 10.30 pm.

Now analyze that. or you wont because it is not a QUERY.
See ya at 10.30.

The place remains open till 11 .. 11:30

Service is VERY fast though - under ten minutes, or almost instant if you order biryani.

My recommendation is their chicken special biryani (which is made from chicken 65 pieces)

Porotta and Kerala Chicken is another very nice combo

For the vegetarians - paneer butter masala, Green Peas Masala are quite nice. Or Egg Butter Masala if you eat eggs.

See you at 7:30 or so!!
