Restaurant review: Best place for Onion Pakoda in Chennai City

This place - Karpagambal Kapali Sweets - in Mylapore Mathala narayanan Street (near Kapaleeswara or Kapali temple) has not changed at all in the last 30 years I have known. Its always had this "dirty, dingy" look and a crowd of people standing fighting in queue to get hot onion pakodas (often referred to as Thool Pakoda) which is probably the best in the city.
  Its a one way and you may have to come in through Kutchery road or walk from the Temple/RASI or from nearby Saravana Bhavan

Restaurant: Kadamba: Iyengar cuisine on iyer(higher) p(a)lates

On Bangalore Mysore road there are several joints and one of my friends (Siva Kumar) suggested this joint as a "safe" veggie joint.

Maddur Vada

Truly interesting concept near Maddur/Chennapatna and this place is definitely worth a visit

They serve puliyodhare - a traditional iyengar rice based dish and several others too. (Apart from Iyengar Yoga cuisine is famous too)

Just so you can spot it easily, (its on the left of the road when you go from Bangalore to Mysore)

Statutory warning: No offenses meant to Iyers or Iyengars
