Whenever a new restaurant opens up in the city...
My friend: Macha Shall we go ?
Me: Yo Yo Lets do it
My friend's Mom(mind voice): இதுங்க என்னைக்கு திருந்தப்போகுதோ
Tirunelveli's famous vairamalaigai has opened their branch last month
in Thirumalai pillai road, just opposite to Vidyodaya school. Last time
when I went to nellai, missed it due to lack of time. Went for dinner
tonight with my all-time-free friend.
Menu was pretty limited
with just parotta and dosa for mains and only country chicken and
omlette varieties for sides. Menu card was too funny, its a learning for
every restaurent owner why spell check is a must before printing the
menu card.
After seeing "cutting chicken" in the menu card,
Friend(to waiter): What you use for cutting...7up or water?
Waiter: Sir we use coconut oil
Friend: What the duck :(
Me: Not a cutting you dream of. It is just a cutting of roasted chicken.
Ordered 2 regular parotta(12₹), one veechu Parotta madippu(15₹) and a cutting chicken(120₹) for each of us. Initially a plantain leaf was laid down. After giving it a wash, onion
raita and spicy chicken chilly podi mixed with coconut oil were served.
It was first time for us to taste a chicken chilly podi. My friend
loved it, asked for a second serving. If they had idly with chicken
podi, it would be an awesome pair.
Regular parotta was crispier
than folded veechu though the later was little bigger. What makes it
special is the currys served with it. A red curry (salna) and a yellow
curry were served in big bowls. Loved soaking the parotta in the yellow
curry, then touching down the chicken podi a little and putting on the
mouth. Red curry was bit spicy, had to I avoid it at the end.
"Cutting (country) chicken" was looking tiny. So ordered a regular roasted
country chicken, which was surprisingly bigger. Both of them were
heavenly, frying on coconut oil added a luscious flavour to it.
Masala omlette(20₹) was just ok. Decided to go for regular omlette on
next visit.
Overall cost was very nominal, but they need to think of
expanding the menu, at least include idly and biriyani. They are open
only from 5.30pm to 11.30pm. There are few teething problems in taking
order. Hope they will get it sorted out before my next visit.
