MATHSYA-restaurant in chennai

I heard so much about Mathsya in Egmore that when i saw this restaurant in T nagar-Thanikchalam road that I wanted to see it. Since they have a Chaat counter , we went there first. Its outside in the open. I thought it would be warm, but it was not so, it was quite comfortable. When we saw the menu, we were thrilled as they have mentioned more than 30 varieties. But while giving order we were disappointed to see that there were hardly anything available out of the dishes. So we asked him to bring us a plate of Aloo tikki and a plate of chana tikki first. What he brought was enough to dampen our spirits. For tikki they prepared small balls fried, with some bread mixed in, and he served it cold with the chatneys, no curd. Of course he put it after we asked him. We were there in the evening and no wonder there was nobody there.
Inside they have air conditioned restaurant, again with all the dishes and buffet dinner also. But for chaat the preparations are same, from outside only it goes inside. After tasting their tikki, we didint have any desire or apetite to go inside atleast that day. We may try some next time.

No, they are same and this restaurant is very good inside, because we went inside next time and they serves excellent north indian and south indian both, only the chaat outside is insipid.
