Mani Gounder Mess — Restaurant in Tamil Nadu

This is a really simple hut-like, traditional Gounder/Koundar style food serving eatery. The seating is basic tables and stool like seating, and food is served on banana leaves. Rice is the main staple, served with customary stir-fried/tossed vegetable and a chutney made from different prime ingredients each day, and typical South-Indian papad. A daal made from differing pulses, and a rustic sambar variant consumed with the rice set the main courses for vegetarians, with a small cup of curd/yoghurt to finish up. Non-vegetarian fare is what Gounder cuisine is known for, and the gravy accompaniments include Country chicken and mutton gravies, and a of bone/cartilage 'thin' gravy (can be drunk just like the famous Paya Soup). Red-chilli and garlic cooked Chicken Chintamani and Mutton Koththu are the picks from the speciality dishes.

Despite the really modest setting, don't be surprised if you find one or two folks from the who's who of the Tiruppur Industrial Magnate crowd eating at Mani Gounder...

Nice food, typical kongunadu style food, they don't have fish items... Worth for price... Neat dining and good hospitality... Average ambience, neat place... Average table service... Mutton chukka is a must try dish here, it is very fresh and tasty... Biriyani is nice and tasty, but the quantity is very low... Meals is nice... All other dishes and quality is good... One of the Best hotel...

Best mess with non vegetarian cooked in home style. Perfect for all chicken and mutton lovers. Blood roast is the best one you can get in whole of tirupur. Non veg meals are worth the try with the side dishes that you can get and eat with it. The service of the food are also neatly served. Go there if you want the best non vegetarian...
