Next time i am in phoenix, i will check Efe out. BTW, the one that serves fresh warm pita bread on "The Street" in NJ is a turkish one called Toro. If you are visiting Teaneck, check it out. I haven't seen belly dancing in "The Street". But it is there in a Moroccan restaurant called Marrakesh in Parsippany, NJ. Thanks also for stopping by our blog. Sukumar Thanks Bill.

This last weekend, I had my first experience with Turkish food at a restaurant called Efe here in the Phoenix area. You would recognize many of the food names on the menu. I found, however, that the Turkish versions of some of them used chili more liberally. That was to my liking and I thing it would also appeal to the Indian palate. The belly dancer provided a savory spice for the visual senses as well! If you ever visit our development center here in Phoenix, we must make time to take you to Efe. Bill Sukumar,

If you are into indo-chinese-singaporean-thai kind of cuisine, check out cascade in Besant Nagar. Divya and I went to this place couple of time while we were in Chennai. First time, we went with Gerry's family, and the service and food was good enough for us to go there a second time. While you are there, do try out their lemon grass or garlic soup. Thai fried noodles was also quite good. Stay away from mee goreng - it was all gooey and not upto par. However, they were kind enough to send out another dish 'on the house' once we mentioned how gooey it was. Extremely courteous waiters and excellent service. On the more ethnic front, try out Murugan's idly in besant nagar. People vouch for their 'poo pola' idly's. Food was good but I did not like their service. It is one of those 'dim sum' like places, and you can keep the orders coming. Ganesh Suku,
