Hole in the wall
... of the must-stop-at places that tops my list is "Hot chocolate" on Avinashi road. A cozy hangout, where the desserts are to die for! Another similar place called "Seasons" in RS Puram is a must try-out. The desserts here are not something even our regular ice-cream parlors can make.
