Pork rib with grilled vegetables in mushroom sauce Filter coffee tiramisu and panna cotta

Just a five-minute drive from this hotel is the restaurant, Swiss Hutte. I have had the best pork ribs in this quaint little eatery. The desserts are pretty good as well, especially the Tiramisu made with locally sourced filter coffee and the panna cotta with mango topping! Another attractive feature of this place is the rustic decor with mood lighting and the peaceful ambiance.

The antique dance bells

Just next to MGR Chennai Central Railway Station is Moore Market, known for its used book shops and antique stores selling unique pieces such as old telephones, gramophones, compasses, and whatnot. I once found a pair of dance bells, the kind that is not in use anymore, but prettier and more musical than the current-day bells. If you have time in hand and a knack for old stuff, browse through the collections and you will surely find something worthwhile. The bookstalls have a wide range of fiction as well as academic books.

The non-vegetarian lunch combo at Manjal

If you want to get a taste of authentic Tamil cuisine, you have to visit Manjal, a 10-minute walk from the hotel. Whenever I go with my friends, we order their non-vegetarian lunch combo along with a few more sides of our choice. My recommendations are Kola Urundai (minced mutton batter-fried), Pichipotta Nattu Kozhi (shredded country chicken in a semi-dry gravy), and brain fry.
