Wish I could be at the meet up. I return to Chennai in November for a short visit and then Jan 2006 for three months........hope to see some IMers then.

This is a fantastic site - my daily 'fix' while I'm away from India!

Helo Rav,

Is that one of those trendy USA-ish coffee places that serves expensive drinks with funny names and has loud music (and maybe a TV...)?

I guess I'm not doing a good job of hiding the fact that I don't like places like that much ;-)

But this is an IM meet: not an NH meet, so democracy rules. Other particpants? Other ideas?

OK ravin, though I was thinking more in the R5-for-a-cup-of-tea line myself! I don't think I can bring myself to spend R40 on a cup of anything

I'm also biased 'cos I can't drink coffee ---how's their tea? I don't mind drinking English-style once in a while, but the 'non-Indian' places I've been to seem not to be able to make chai or English tea properly.

I totally agree on the AC though. This is my first Chennai May/June and AC is my friend!

what ever

I am not sure i really care where we go. I dont know that many place in the city as i mainly frequent places locally. I will leave it up to other to decide this one although i am probably more inclined to really good chai and A/C myself.

Hopefuly there will be more than three of us if we give it a week or so to get up steam, but what are your local/day-time-working areas, Ravin? Spiritedchick?

chai and chit chat

during the day i am pretty flexible. just need to give a couple of days notice- may have a few ppl to bring with me. I do stuff all over town. I am not phased besides i am always up for seeing a new part of the city, so long as it does not include a trip to savanah stores - anyone had the pleasure?
I hope a few more ppl come out to play nick although i think many have headed to the cooler north.
