If someone has not mentioned it already - Cream center is a good option for pure veggies. Lots of varieties. Bit costly.

Went yesterday! Superb boss.. Lot of varieties including North Indies, Mexican etc, semma! .Ambiance is pretty good too. Yes its costly, but worth of it. A must visit.

Visiting to TN after 5 years (for 3 weeks vacation). This time I would like to spend some time with family and friends/relatives in shopping and eating at Chennai. Suggestions please on the following.

** Small and Medium budget Restaurants (Veg or Non Veg)
** Textile shops for purchasing semi-formal, casual shirts and T shirts in a reasonable price

Suggestion 1: Don't go to Chennai
Otherwise, the concept of small/medium "no-frills" eat outs is nearing extinction. Murugan Idly kadai is the new "Small" na paathukkungalen
Triplicane Ratna Cafe-a yaaro pal theikkaadha sEt vaangittadha padichen/kelvi patten. You might want to check it out.
