Savour the mouth-watering Chettinad chicken, an internationally acclaimed food item. Other must tries include 'appam', 'kal dosai', 'kuzhi paniyaram' with exquisite side dishes like 'poondu kozhambu'. Tamils like their coffee filtered, never instant. Try it by the metre for the authentic experience - coffee is poured out from one tumbler into another for that 'espresso' effect.
