Indian cooking is wonderfully tasty. Annapurna Goddess<\/strong> always inspires it.<\/p>\n

• Anna<\/strong> = food<\/li>\n
• Purna<\/strong> = complete; abundant; total; full<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  You will find many restaurants in Mah\u0101balipuram, vegetarian and non-vegetarian and also western-style cooking at the \u201cNautilus\u201d, run by a Frenchman who has been living in India for a very long time, and at the \u201cAu Yogi\u201d run by a former Indian yoga student, married to a Belgian. There is also \u201cThe Blue Elephant\u201d et le well known \u201cMoonrakers\u201d, run by our friend Ramesh, and \u201cThe Gecko Caf\u00e9\u201d held by Mani in a nice place with a view on the lake, 14 Othavadai Cross Street. For a kitchen dining room, very cheap: The \u00ab\u00a0Mamalla\u00a0\u00bb, S. Mada Street, near the Bus Stand and the \u00ab\u00a0Sri Ananda Bhavan\u00a0\u00bb, on the corner of E.
