Hello Chennai my first restaurant review & a Happy Winner of Sukham Coolers event

 Hello friends and my readers, I hope you are all having a wonderful summer. I am back in home town and enjoying every bit of it. With all the travel scheduled for next 3-4 weeks, I don't know how much time I will be able to visit all my favorite blogs or do the likes in face book. I have scheduled couple of posts to be automatically published, so don't be surprised when you see my posts but not visiting your blogs.



Now coming to this post, I normally don't do any restaurant review in my site. But just wanted to share the information about this very interesting and healthy Naturopathic style restaurant(Sanjeevanam) located in heart of Chennai, India. If you are looking for a very healthy spread of balanced food with lot of vegetables, protein, complex carbohydrates and fat you should definitely visit this place.



The meal starts with 1) Ripe Banana Slices with grated coconut 2) 5 Kinds of juices 3) Few types of salads with raw vegetables 4) Few dishes with half cooked vegetables 5) Few dishes of full cooked vegetables 6) Choice of Whole Red Rice or White Rice 7) Few typical Indian Side dishes 8) Meal ends with a Tbsp of honey to aid digestion.



The food is served in the order listed above and below and will be served only after finishing an order. With all the vegetables filling up once you come to the main course or the item 6) you will barely eat 3-4 tbsp of rice. The food is all gluten free, cooked with coconut oil and you get to have good serving of Ghee(clarified butter-fat is a very important part of the meal because it helps you to feel full for a longer time and curbs cravings and of course the source should be good fat). There is also a dessert in the meal which is made using jaggery (panela) and no refined sugars or flours are used.

 I just tried to capture the juices alone and  stunned at the healthy spread before my eyes totally forgot to click next arrays of spread served. So if you get a chance to be in the city or visit Chennai don't forget to pay a visit to this restaurant.

Now coming to the end of this post, I am happy to share the good news that my entry Cucumber Celery Cilantro Cooler won the Healing Foods - Sukham coolers event. The best part is as soon as I got the email from Jigyasa & Prathibha about the good news and send them my mailing address, I got the book delivered at my door steps within few hours. Thanks guys the book is so good and there are lot of lovely recipes to be tried out.
