Best Places to Eat Thali in Chennai

Thali is everyone’s go-to when we can’t decide what to order. It’s tasty and it fills you. Who doesn’t like to have variety!! I absolutely love to have my options– dal makhani and butter paneer together in one plate is as dreamy as it gets aur agar baat South-Indian ki ho toh sambhar, rasam and rice and a dessert makes for a perfect the-end to this delicious love story, doesn’t it?

My mouth is already watering so let’s start without further ado.
