After the usual rounds at Tekka Market and done with the groceries, the weather, though cloudy, held. So the girlfriends and I decided to walk out further to Race Course Road and into Anjappar Authentic Chettinaad Restaurant.
We've eaten here together and separately countless times. Today was the first time we ordered the prawn biryani. No one had ordered it before on other occasions. It was quite terrible. I think it had alot to do with the prawns they used. It didn't smell appealing and taste good. We sent it back and didn't bother to replace it.
The vegetable biryani did tons better. Wheww. It tasted like the restaurant's usual standard. Fragrant and tasty, I love to slather curry, dhaal and whatever over it. Very difficult to have a meal in an Indian restaurant without having rice. The rest of the dishes that came along were alright. With aloo gobi masala and other vegetables, 4 girls easily finished the rather sizeable pot of biryani. Most satisfying. Not desserts. Walked across to the other side before hopping into the cars.
Without being too full in the stomach, we went for a slow swim at the club where it was blissfully empty. The water was cold! Brrrrrr. But nowadays, I swim in longs, so it wasn't so bad after the first 2 laps which would always be a sprint to get some heat circulating in the bones. It must have been the carbs or something, but I swam a little longer than usual, relishing in the strength the muscles felt as I cut through the water. Awesome.
