Many people wondered how I survived India for 3 months and I get a 100% response rate of "No ways!" when I tell them I love the food in India. In fact, I had some of the best food ever in my life in India. I don't know where the people who experienced "Delhi belly" were eating, but I had no problems whatsoever the entire time I was there.
Indian food is predominantly vegetarian given that the country's mostly Hindus who believe in a vegetarian diet. Almost everything is spicy if you eat at local restaurants, and on some occasions where there is a "non-spicy" section, the food still seems to be spicy nevertheless! The first week there was a lot of guessing involved when ordering at a restaurant, and by now, I can almost fully understand everything on the menu at an Indian restaurant!
One restaurant I would really recommend in Chennai is Mahamudra, a very clean, healthy, vegetarian restaurant. The premises it is at includes a fitness studio, spa and boutique. So if you want a massage, do some shopping and have a great meal, then this is the perfect place to be. Contact details: Mahamudra, Isha Life Fitness System, Old. No. 50, New No. 117, Luz Church Road, Mylapore, Chennai. Phone +914443535555, www.ishalife.com.
Oh how I wish for a masala dosa right now! [[posterous-content:pid___0]]
