Food & Books

This place is every bookworms dream. You get
books AND delicious food!
So, writers cafe is a small nook on  127, Peters Rd, Gopalapuram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu 600086. This unique cafe has umpteen number of books to choose from. You could also purchase books and other bookish goodies from the cafe.


I went there on a Saturday night and the place was pretty crowded. Although, I did love the ambiance of the place.


For the starters, I had onion rings, fries with Swiss cheese and the jalapeno cheese balls and everything was darn good. I tried the roasted chicken and pickled chilies flammkochen and the macaroni and cheese. I loved the pizza as it had a thin crust and a generous amount of cheese. The macaroni and cheese was pretty generic.





Here comes my favorite thing in the cafe. the frozen hot chocolate drink. I absolutely LOVED it. 
I also tried apple crumble pie and it was pretty good.

All in all, i loved the place and i would definitely be going a lot more!

The very hungry frenchman

Raymond Blanc: the Very Hungry Frenchman (BBC Two) was a food programme with too many ingredients. Stirred together to form a near-indigestible stew, it combined elements of a traditional cookery series with those of a TV travelogue and a Who Do You Think You Are?-style documentary, as Blanc revisited the areas of France that inspired him to become a chef. Blanc is jolly company and never shy of playing to stereotype – he said “Ooh la” seven times and drove a misfiring Citroën – but unlike his cuisine the whole enterprise was horribly overcooked.
