Restaurant Week comes to Chennai

Chennai’s dining scene gets a serious shot in the arm with its inaugural Citibank Restaurant Week India (RWI) starting this Friday. After ten successful rounds in cities such as Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru, the popular pan-India culinary event started in 2010 finally makes its way down south. 

Look forward to a three-course prix fixe menu that will include handpicked signature dishes from The Raintree and Hip Asia at Vivanta by Taj to Beyond Indus and Kefi at the Taj Club House — all at a fraction of the cost of an a la carte menu. Plus, a few signature RWI additions like seafood pongkari at Benjarong, Vietnamese silken tofu and shiitake cabbage parcel at EST, and Chettinad paneer and gobhi kemphu at Samudra. 

The meagre line-up may pale in comparison to Delhi and Mumbai’s 25 plus restaurants, but don’t let that put you off. Managing to balance cuisine and geography, the list looks promising with restaurants such as Thai specialty eatery Benjarong, sushi bar/Japanese restaurant Teppan (Alwarpet), The Raintree, Beyond Indus, The Gateway Hotel's Sian at the IT Expressway, Samudra, Kefi, Hip Asia, EEST and Ayna. 

While seats for today are filling up, reservations are open until they’re fully booked, so sign up now. Rs 750 (plus taxes) for a three-course meal per diner, Rs 200 (plus taxes) extra for RWI signature main courses. - See more at: http://www.gqindia.com/live-well/food/restaurant-week-comes-chennai-gq-india#sthash.ZJ3udahg.dpuf
