Tea Break in Chennai!  Adyar Ananda Bhavan is a known place to go for snacks and for sweets.  It was a good place to stop for something light before the evening.There are many things to order here, all listed on the wall.  But they have table service.We decided to start a little savory and decided to try something freshly made and on the spot.Karappam – mushy rice, onions, corn and herbs deep fried with Chutney. They cook them right in the oil outside. Next up, something sweet.  But what to get?  There are so many! After seeing the dizzying variety of choices we settled on Cashew and Pistachio Sweets (Kaju Pistha) with Indian Pulled Coffee.

Very, very sweet!  The Coffee, you use the tray underneath to pour back and forth – Tarik style.
