The Tanjore Tiffin Room - Chettinad (Tamil Nadu) all the way. Spicy/Tangy/Savoury/Sweet this has all the flavours in the dishes which they have in the menu. Apart from The Salad (Went for a toss) all the other dishes were good. This place is located level 2 at Union Park. Subtle interiors, not very heavy and less of southern touch. Feels homely. Coming to what we tried (Tasting portions) ============================= Mini Bonda was a good choice (Tamil nadu take) on the famous Maharashtrian Batata wada. Bit of curry pata flavour. Golden fried served with Coconut chutney. Price 275/+ Mini Gun-Powder Idli, have to ask for this if one visits a South Indian restaurant. Could have been fluffy and lighter, however Malgapodi and ghee balanced it well. Bit of sesame on top with curry pata flavour. Served with Mint chutney. Pepper Chicken - Diced or call it Bite sized chicken pieces with black pepper marination. Tossed with lime. A bit of Ginger and Garlic hit and obviously Curry leaves. Taste - good. Not over. Prawn Sundal - Finely chopped prawns tossed well with onions (sweetness) garlic and coconut. Guess a bit of Raw Mango gave the tangy taste to it. Flavours were subtle. A must if you are a prawn lover. Nethili Fry - Known as Anchovy Big (known as Nethili in Tamil) these are basically small fish. One can make it with gravy or Fry the same and make it a Bar bite. Here the chef has fried it with homemade spices (Crunchy) with good texture. A bit Pungent in taste. Overall a good Bar Nibble. Padmini's Mutton Cutlet (Home Recipe) Simple minced meat with balanced spices. Home-style cooking. Let the dish do the talking. Good. Mains - After a spoon tasting of about 12 Gravy dishes and some rice (yes, they send you a thali which has tasting portions of all the gravy's) one needs to select it. Also the steward/captain in charge would recommend you what goes well with the one you like. Since i had made up my mind stuck to the Tangy side. Moru Kulambu - Its Kadi basically but made tamilian version. Liked the texture and a bit of the tangy taste. This goes well with the steamed rice. Meenakshi's (Home recipe) Vatha Kulambu - this is a TamilBram speciality. Very Tangy and a bit spicy with Tamarind. This is again a must have dish. Goes well with rice or Appam. My Partner had a prawn dish (can't recollect the gravy) had a subtle coconut touch to it. Madewell. Balance was good so was the texture. To end it was MYSORE PAK. Yum. Rich with ghee. Try this. Bet you can't stop having one. Overall - Something different. Being Monday the place was packed. Yes they also serve alcohol. Do try their Garden Galata (Gin and Tonic) with a bit of passion fruit. Has freshness. Rose petal s cucumber and orange. Pondicherry Punch was good. Madewell. Basically Orange Basil Mojito. Would surely be back for another round of Chettinad Cuisine - till then cheers!

As soon as you enter Tanjore Tiffin Room, Khar, a breezy freshness hits you and you feel as if you are in a garden cafe, even though you are in an indoor first floor seating in Union Park, Khar. The tropical đŽ mood further settles in with the very mildly sweet and spicy Virgin Guava Mary Mocktail and Virgin Ginger Lemon Honey Mocktail đžwith a wonderfully strong flavour of ginger đđŒWe asked for Arbi Ghee Roast as our first appetizer and was quite happy with the aroma of ghee in it. Next appetizer was a combination of yam and jackfruit cutlets served with a tangy chutney ...both were delicious. Once you are done with your drinks and appetizers, they bring you an elaborate thali laid out with samples of all their curries, rice varieties etc. While your server very patiently explains each curry and the combinations it can be served with, you may keep sampling the same. Loved the concept đđŒBased on this tasting, for the mains we decided on our all time favourite Vegetable Stew with Appam and the enticing Sivagamis Jackfruit Curry with Idiappam. Both the curries were delicious though we found the stew too sweet for our taste buds. The appam was perfectly shaped and the idiappams were liberally sprinkled with grated fresh coconut đ„„. Unfortunately they didnât have any variety in desserts, only the Mysore Pak and Payyasam. Hence, we ordered the vermicelli Payyasam and found it a perfect balance of sweetness and flavourđ.Our Server Soso painstakingly took us through our lunch and we found all the staff very courteous. Tanjore Tiffin Room, Khar seems to be a very popular venue for Sunday lunch so if you are looking for some peace and quiet then try going on weekdays đ to soak in the ambiance over a refreshing drink ! Enjoy eating and follow us on Insta : @foodieklix for more reviews:)

A lot of people recommend this place and my visit here has not been long overdue. I was extremely excited to go because im a big south indian food girlie. The hype around this place is genuine, because everything we ordered was banger. We started off with a Sada dosa, testing platter and Aloo Bonda. The chutney that came with the dosa was to die for, and the Aloo bonda reminded me of my childhood, both Dosa and Bonda went well with the red chutney they gave us, there was no green chutney with the Bonda which would have been amazing I think they forgot to serve it. I would suggest start off with the testing platter so you know which type of curry flavour youâll like the best. We ended up getting Chicken Ghee Roast and the railway curry. The Railway curry had a unique coconutty flavour and the Chicken ghee roast was nicely spicy. Umami with the masala roasted in the ghee. We also ordered beverages: 1. Lychee Ginger Cooler - A little sweet for my taste but a great paring with Spicy food. 2. Lemon Ice tea - Nobody can go wrong with this one, and they certainly didnât. 3. Tamilian Sunrise - a very simple orange Citrus Juice with gin, again very yummy. We ended the meal with Mysore pak, it was again a little sweet for my taste, but was just what we needed after that amazing meal. This wasnât a big problem but there was a lot of time when the entire floor was unattended and non of the staff was around, wasnât a big inconvenience but we just found it strange. Ill be visiting them again to try the lemon rice and fish fry the next time. A hard recommendation for sure.
