  A 80 year old house turned restaurant gives us the best ambience to enjoy the richness of the tradition. They serve one of the best Desserts in the town. Their authentic unique flavours of Desserts are really outstanding.

  1. Chicken biryani (Rs 269/-)Perfectly spices up biryani with very tender chicken pieces..2. Vanjaram Fry (Rs 319/-)The ever classic vanjaram fish tawa fried and served to perfection..3. Kozhi 2019 (Rs 199/-)A new style of chicken 65 tossed in chilli and butter and served.The taste was amazing and it was the best combo to go with the biryani..4. Madhuri Mutton chukka (Rs 299/-)Soft pieces of Mutton tossed in spices and served..5.Potlam barotta Mutton (Rs 300/-).The barotta was first kept in front of us wrapped in a banana leaf (hence potlam) and once it was opened there was an amazing aroma to the dish..The dish is basically 3 layers of parotta stuffed with Mutton and serva..The barotta was soo yummmmm and very very filling, Never knew I would be done with just one…Follow @oruplateparcel @oruplateparcel for more food info.

  Chennai sees a brand new South Indian restaurant called Aadhirai @aadhirai_madras in Nungambakkam with a hint of Chettinad , TN & Andhra cuisine .The menu offers a diff twist specially curated by the famous Chef Koushik Shankar.We tried their signature Veg starters included Karuveplai Paneer, Vazhapoo Vada, Yam Nachos. THe Karuveplai with a stronger smell totally took over Paneer’s default taste and gave a perfect blend to the taste.The main course had Barotta & Paneer Mutter Fry, one of the best Puliyogare (after Triplicane Parthasarathy temple) The dessert was a six course menu includingSalted Caramel Akkaravadisal, Mukkani Panacotta, Kubani Ka Meetha, Coconut Souffle , Falooda, and Pomegranate Payasam muralikarthik.in

  Aadhirai is a new restaurant which has cropped up in a quaint location off Nungambakkam constructed out of a olden day vintage property. The first thing that strikes you is that it infuses the homely feel evidently. The handicrafts and wood work largely give it a very regional as well as authentic feel. The cuisine is largely South Indian and predominantly bordering into Chettinadu.We were here on a weekend afternoon to soak in some of their special offerings. Started the foray with a delightful thirst quencher in the form of a Panagam Granita. This iced infused drink added an extra twist but didn’t hinder the taste of the ever popular traditional sweet drink which was really impressive. I had portions of the drink all through the meal and it acted as the perfect beverage. In the soup side the Malli Rasam soup was delightful. It had a subtle hint of flavours which worked very well.In the starter section, we were served a yam loaded nachos. To be frank I’m not a fan of Yam but done in a renewed manner with salsa sauce and cream in the form of a nachos, it was bang on crispy and turned out to be a great starter. The karuvepillai panneer was simply sterling. This one was tossed and diced up in this traditional leafy powder and the essence it brought out was sensationally slithering.The Gobi ghee roast was again quite an eye turner. The pieces of cauliflower were cooked in ghee and a chilli based masala and were served on thin coin like pieces of paratha thatched with a touch of honey to slightly lower down the spice content. If you’re a spice lover you’ll love this and more so some of their special offerings loaded with abundance of chillies and spices. The Vazhapoo Vadai was one more starter which we tried. This was however more of the usual stuff and the paruppu flavour out did the vazha poo. Nevertheless it was crispy and bitesome.In the main course we tried paratha with a well made up panneer peas combo gravy. Apart from this was the trademark pulliyodhare which they served us tied in a green leaf. As the green covering was opened the taste was hard hitting and every spoonful had a lilting taste which was so deliciously felt on the tongue. It also came with a Thogaiyil which enhanced the taste. Seldom have I had such a lovely version of this temple delicacy served in any restaurant.The ending was in the form of a bucketful of desserts served in malayali style tea glasses. We tried a shot of the following namely Pomogranate Payasam, coconut soufle, falooda, kubani ka meetha, black forest akkaravadisal and karupatti panacotta. Each of these not only looked appealing but had a lissom lusture to it and was riveting in taste. Such toothsome delights in small portions were indeed the perfect meal ender enabling our sweet tongues to munch in pure excitement.The service was quick with the items reaching our tables at regular intervals. The staff were very courteous explaining each dish in detail and also helping us with our orders. I must also mention the vadam which they serve with 4 different side dishes which complements so well namely a tomato thokku, mirapakaya pachadi (green chilli infused), Avakai Mayo and a garlic dip. From a holistic picture, if you’re looking for exquisite south Indian cuisine done in traditional style yet throwing up innovations but not compromising on the taste, you should certainly check out Aadhirai for a rich home grown South Indian meal.
