Eden – Vegetarian Food at its Best!

Posted by Navin Ganesh on May 29, 2007 in Chennai |

It is one of Chennai’s very popular restaurants and is just a short walk from Elliot’s Beach. They have now opened up branches in Nungambakkam and Anna Nagar as well. For those people who are paranoid about non-vegetarian food, then this is just the place for you. Even though they serve only vegetarian, this place has something for everyone to have a satisfying meal. So don’t miss it.

Eden is a purely vegetarian cuisine and along with great quality food there is no compromise on the variety of dishes available. You’ve got the usual soups and starters. Then you’ll find yourself a reasonably long list of continental dishes which are lip-smackingly tasty. Also included in the menus is North Indian food such as Roti, quite a few side dishes and variations of Fried Rice.

I just can wait to recommend you to try out ‘Corn Florentine’ (Rs. 100) which you’ll find among the Continentals. It’s a baked cheese bowl along with spinach and corn. Its simply ‘yummy’. And I’ve confirmed that its not just me, but I know lot of people who love it. I don’t think I’ve ever had North Indian over here, but knowing Eden’s standard, I can say with some certainty that it would be among the best you’ve tried. Finally you’ve got a whole page of desserts and ice creams on the menu to finish off your meal at a high.

Apart from the food, the service is pretty good and waiters are friendly. But I must warn you, its popularity in food quality lures a lot of people from all over the city. So, if you are planning to come in as a group, you’d better make reservations to avoid getting disappointed. It gets really crowded at weekends at some people end up waiting for over an hour. Nevertheless, I believe that just speaks for Eden’s universal liking across all categories of people.

Its quite affordable especially for what it has got to offer. A meal for 2 people including everything from soups and starters to the desserts would work out to about Rs. 400. I would call that real value for money as there are few places that can give you such good food.

By now (if you are like any other normal foodie) I guess you would have the urge to find out what all the buzz is about. Go Right Ahead! You can find Eden by going straight down the road from the Besant Nagar Bus depot away from Adyar. Its right before the ICICI Bank on the Left. I’m sure anyone around there must be able to guide you.

Eden (at Besant Nagar) used to be one of my fav. hangout joints. The corn florentine is superb, as you rightly said, and I used to have quite a yen for their kashmiri aloo as well. It’s been more than 4 years since I ate there and I hope to find the same taste when I get a chance to re-visit.
