A few recommendations

Rajakeeyam lunch in Cholayil Sanjeevanam:
I’d be very surprised if any other restaurant provides a healthier food at that price – Rs.125. It’s time people gave a golden handshake to the likes of Saravana Bhavan, Sangeetha etc.

Thirukazhukundram temple:
If you are one of those who like ancient hindu temples with the unmistakeable odor of bats (vavaal) then do visit Thirukazhukundram. It’s about 13 kms from Chengalpet on the Chengalpet – Mamallapuram/Kalpakkam route.
The temple on the hill top maybe a bit of a stretch for the old aged but it’s beautiful to see the surrounding landscapes from there on a lazy sunday evening. It is quite famous and old and fortunately not yet commercially exploited as far as I could sense.
I am not sure about Paabam, Punniyam etc but visiting ancient temples on ordinary weekends (My 2 cents: Please stay away from all temples during auspicious days if you want your peace of mind) is an activity I enjoy.

is an amazing resource for those who want to visit ancient temples but do not know where to go.

Charles T Munger:
This man has long been in the shadows of his more illustrious business partner, Warren Buffett, and consequently well outside the limelight. Those in the US would do well to get a collector’s edition of all things Munger ‘Poor Charlie’s Almanac’. Munger is not an average stock picker who just got lucky. Some rich grandfathers deserve to be rich and great. Munger is definitely one of them.

    Cholayil Sanjeevanam is my fav anyday. By the way, 2 years back, when I was in Chennai, it cost Rs.100 and before that Rs. 90.

    And non-veg food at “New Andhra Meals” at PondyBazaar.

    Fathima

    inflationary times :0

    but its still worth it than giving 100 Rs for that lousy saravana bhavan ‘tamil nadu’ lunch in pondy bazaar
