About Madras Bros.
The story of the Madras Bros. is a rich tale of two boys born and raised in a culture torn between polarities: wealth and poverty, heritage and modernity, people and power, politics and show business (Kollywood, in this case).
After a taste-tour of Tamil-Nadu’s most loved culinary institutions in early 2017, brothers Magesh and Hrishi developed this fine ‘institution’. Serving authentic Tamil cuisine in true Southern Indian style, everything from dish to decor has been sourced or inspired by their Chennai pilgrimage.
With the charisma of Rajinikanth, the bustling spirit of T.Nagar, and the quaint innocence of a thriving culture influenced by so many sources, be sure to drop by, ‘for the best moment of yours’.
The Food
Sowcarpet Pani Puri
Cute little puris stuffed with a spicy potato herb mixture served with sweet‘n’sour mix to Tamil-tingle your tastebuds.
M.C.C. Masala Peanuts
The legendary Madras Cricket Club peanuts with dry spices, the perfect accompaniment to any drink.
Masala Vadai
Chana Dhal soaked and ground to make an uneven mixture to tantalise the taste buds with its crunchy but smooth taste. A true Southern Indian favourite.
Alsa Mall’s Bombay Sandwich
Sure — its origin may be Bombay, but this Indian sandwich with fresh mint chutney, potato, tomato on the grill, served with classic tomato sauce was made famous in the 1980s outside Alsa Mall, Madras. Must try.
Chettinadu Chicken
Curry not as popular as butter chicken (yet), in the opposite spectrum in spice level with dry roasted spices and cooked to perfection.
