Mercado Feb 09, 2010
Mercado Besant Nagar | 1 review
I hadn’t been to Mercado, and after reading an article in The Hindu, decided to pay it a visit. It is undoubtedly the most exotic of the lot I’ve been to so far. They have a splendid meat section offering different cuts of meat. Proscuitto from Italy, Salmon from Wales, sausages, Bockwurst are all lined up neatly in the freezer. They have a commendable collection of cheese. I spotted Haloumi, Brie, Camembert, Parmiggiano Reggiano, Emmental, and also a fondue-ready block of cheese. They have a selection of imported potato wafers (even Wasabi flavoured). They sell some exotic fruit & vegetables.... read more -

Good collection of liquors Aug 30, 2009
Chipstead Nungambakkam | 6 reviews
Went to this place yesterday. Its the refurbished Fort St.George. And apparently according to the report in The Hindu, Taj wants to attract the young crowd and not just the corporate. However, the same kind of corporate crowd comes in. They just play techno now.The average age in this place was 50yrs when I was there (excluding the waiters). The interiors are quite tastefully done, but the seats could've been more comfortable.
The bartender Jiri Majerik is a friendly sort of chap who's willing to explain how the drink is prepared.
They have a really extensive collection of liquors,... read more -

Mast Kalandar Adyar | 66 reviews
I'd heard a bit about this place and I'd wanted to see what the fuss was all about. My parents had come down here for the weekend, and since Mom is a pure veggie, I thought I'd take them to this place and see if they like it. Mom is not a very restauarant-food-liking person and to say that she loved the place says everything about this joint.
Its located conveniently at Shastri Nagar, within reach for all the North Indians working in sofware professionals dying for home-food who have all settled in the vicinity of Adyar & Thiruvanmayur.
The interiors are bright ,cheerful... read more -

Tasty Jones Jun 15, 2009
Tasty Jones Besant Nagar | 14 reviews
We were searching for something spicy to eat and moved to Besant Nagar and after rejecting Galloping Gooseberries, we walked over to the row of food stalls near the beach. After finding Dhaba Express too crowded, we finally settled on Tasty Jones. We found a seat near the entrance, with plants jutting on to the table, however it was the only one we found. In the balmy heat,we were soon sweating, but the AC seating was full.
We weren’t looking for a meal, as we had filled our stomachs with coffee and chocolate. We wanted the Achari Kebab, but it wasn’t available. So we settled for a half... read more -

Mocha Mojo Adyar | 14 reviews
I've just got back from this place. They have found a great location, just near Adyar depot. Quite near Java Green & Cafe Coffee Day. The place is tastefully decorated, with lots of funky colours and trendy interiors. The seating is semi-comfortable, by which I mean that some of the chairs are really comfortable, but the sofa-seating is not all that great. Only the ones sitting near the walls get to really relax.
The waiters are dressed in blue, but their aprons are pink & hilarious. The place gets quite crowded by around 6pm on a weekend. We had to wait for about 20 minutes to get... read more -
