How hard is it to find a good eatery in chennai ?
It was a sunday and a gang of friends are meeting up after decades. So they decide on an eat out (you know talk-talk, chop-chop! ) and all they wanted was a good restaurant with good food and good ambience. Now, thats where the problem begins !! There's lot of "Good" in there. Too much to ask for in a metropolis eh ? There were some constraints, Yeah . It had to be a mixed table with Non-veg and Veg , it had to have a classic and a creative menu, destination not too far( you dont want to get to your tables when your over your hunger !! ) and not to forget a reasonable price to pay. Everyone had ideas, so they sit to zero in on one and what do they end up doing ? Arguing for over an hour just to realise that the talk was going nowhere !!
Sad, they decided on Food court's . May be, the one in spencer's. But you know, you dont want too many people there lining up to grab your table even before you finish your meal ! So thats done. And if you were looking out for some nice dhaba, you are sure enough not to find a place comfortable enough for a group of 7 on a sunday afternoon. Even if you did, lets just say not worth the wait ( come on, its the same ol chappati's n mutter for gods sake! ). Dont even get started on the quintessential south indian outlets... right when you make yourself comfortable and start catching up with your friends you suddenly hear a pouty face announcing " sirr BILL " , more like an invitation to leave. Being a gang that had some sensible minds , the idea of pizza corners and huts was eliminated as soon as it was mentioned. So that leaves Chinese and the likes. Whoa, chinese...
It was half past 1 and all of them could sense strange bowel movements . Two of them put their foot down and ordered on Wang's Kitchen, Nungambakkam (Chinese) . There were veto's. It was certainly not a great decision but it seemed like their only final hope cause almost half of them gave up. So everyone scoots to the kitchen and Voila! Not bad at all. They actually had a great time. Atleast the ambience was great and they werent asked to vacate soon. And food, hmm.
So if you are one of those crazy foodies, the next time you ask yourself "hungry kya?" make sure you are prepared to enjoy a complete analysis of the eat outs in chennai !
