If you thought that all Chennai offered you as a part of breakfast snacks and dinner was idli then you are so wrong. Chennai has been the hub for a lot of folks from all across the country since the British ruled us, which clearly means that there is a variety of chat bhandaars that are absolutely not to be missed. So the next time it rains in Chennai (which is quite a frequent activity) we suggest you try these street food joints for spicy, tangy time:

1. Karishma Pani Poori Shop

This place literally is the first outlet one should try in Chennai for chaat. We don’t know what’s magic he does, but the Pani Puri plate is yummi-licious. And you definitely cannot stop at just one or two or even three.

Sometimes you crave for all that masala between two layers of soft bread and even though you could make one at home, you will still run to Royal Sandwich. Their blends of sandwiches at extremely reasonable prices are too good to be true.
