Madras Day, 2023

One way to capture a person’s heart is through delicious food and Madras has never ceased to do that ever since!! Happy Madras Day!!!

Madras Day, observed annually on August 22nd, commemorates the founding of the city of Chennai (formerly known as Madras) in 1639. On this day, we celebrate the vibrant history, culture, and diversity that have shaped this city. Chennai’s roots can be traced to the East India Company’s settlement, and it has since evolved into a dynamic city, seamlessly blending tradition and modernity.

One of Chennai’s remarkable aspects is its diverse and delectable cuisine. The city is a gastronomic haven, famous for its aroma of the filter coffee, crispy and kids favorite cap dosas, spicy sambar, and lip-smacking vadas and bajji. Seafood delights, like the iconic Chennai fish curry, are a testament to its coastal charm. Equally enticing are the Chettinad delicacies, known for their fiery flavors. From street food to fine dining, Chennai offers a wide range of culinary experiences.

Madras Day inspires us to celebrate the city’s distinguished past and savor its many tastes. It’s a day to honor the varied cuisine of Chennai, where each dish pays tribute to the city’s rich history and culinary passion.
