@Chris, weren't you the one that wanted to have a lunch meet here ? Why veggie ? Where's the Xtreme ?

Opted for Veg since I thought we would be meeting in the lental season. If it's on 31st that would be 'Easter' for us and I would switch to Non-veg. And this would be a great feast for me after 40 days of veggy diet.

Ah, i wanted to attend a tbhp meet. Currently i am uncertain regarding my whereabouts on 31st. I might come at the last moment though.

SedatedDrive · 23rd March 2013, 00:07

Come on! There should be more people who should be on the confirmed list. Where is your appetite, men of the South?!

Seems like I cannot make it before the 1st week of April. If I was in Chennai, it would have been a breeze. I am coming to Chennai positively on 20/21 April though. I am sorry guys, the food sure looks very tempting.

Two things i want to inform you people.

1.I am 50:50 for the plan as i have plans for bangy on 29 to 31st with family.

2. Kuppanna is not a great place,I ve been there with colleagues who are hard core non vegs,they never revisited for the last 1.5years.Everything was like sample (quantity) and taste also not great. Vegetarians get just one or two options.

Just my feedback

Thanks for the feedback.As im new to Chennai, I have dont have adequate knowledge of Non-Vegetarian restaurants , hence left this decision to SedatedDrive.
@Madhu..can we think of alternate restaurants? How about Dindigul Thalapakkatu?

SedatedDrive · 24th March 2013, 11:08

I visited Junior Kuppanna 4 times in the last 30 days and the taste and quality was pretty good and consistent except for Biryani rice which is not my preferred style. The quantity is your choice - they will ask you when you order.

Alternatively, we can just hit Barbecue Nation which is next to the first meeting spot.

This sounds encouraging. I suggest that we try out Junior Kupanna, as I too heard good reviews.

@SedatedDrive nice initiative, its been a long time since we meet, I have a family function on 31st, so I will not be able to make it, in case if the function gets cancelled I would love to join the meet, will confirm/call you if at all I am coming.

SedatedDrive · 25th March 2013, 14:32

I have reserved a table for lunch on Sunday at Barbecue Nation at 12 noon for 12. Junior Kupanna is First Come First Served. Hence, we need to be at the park by 11am.
