Chennai trip - Day 1
Somewhat inspired by my friend Brij, decided to document my trip to Chennai and Velankanni late January.
Day 1: Departure from Mumbai at 8:30 pm
Surprisingly the flight left on time and without much hassles we reached Chennai at 10 pm. The ride from the airport to our hotel was incident-free and we did glance nervously around when the driver took us through some narrow bylanes presumably to avoid traffic.
10:30 pm
Got a call from the bride-to-be who checked in to see if we reached – which was pretty nice of her to remember. We reached our Hotel and checked in. Not a great hotel but good enough to sleep in. No roaches and no rats and everything else was fine.
11:30 pm
Our tummies were growling at this moment and the few eatables that we carried unfortunately turned bad and we had to throw it away. The restaurant in the hotel was shut and we had to leave the hotel and dine in a shady restaurant across the road. We ordered Chicken Chettinnad and some dosas. And both of us got a shock when we had to eat off a Banana leaf and with our hands!!!!
I'll remember to pack some spoons next time I visit South India
