Part 1: About the Restaurant
Desi Di is located in one of the posh localities in Chennai - POES Garden
It has ample parking facility for 2/4 wheelers.
Set up in silent location. This is away from city traffic.
The theme is attractive. It takes you back to the retro period.
Staffs were very helpful and friendly.
Interiors were done so beautifully and even minute details were taken care of.
Perfection is the apt name for the set up. Here are some of the clicks from the restaurant 👇

Part 2 - About the Food!!
I was here this noon with my other foodie pals. They were vegetarian & I preferred pure non-veg 😍
While they were busy tasting veggie food, I started belting non-veg food.
What were served?
I have given the list of food that we’re being served in the same order:
Litchi Jamun Juice
Paneer Burji Khakra
Butta Kebab(Corn)
Rawa Fish
Mutton Kebab with Turnip Purée & Naan
Veg Cutlet Chops(Beetroot)
Vada Bao(Aloo Bonda with Garlic Chutney with home made steam bun)
Sweet Corn & Drumstick Soup
Afghani Chicken(Nattu Kozhi)
Baltic Paneer
Multi Saath Paneer
Dosa Waffles
Multi Millet Khichdi
Green Apple Jalebi
Gulab Jamun Cheese Cake &
Sulaimani Tea 🙏
Chef Aaron took lot of time & trouble to explain about the speciality of each food/dish. We were told that each were prepared based on the seasonal fruit/vegetable when it comes to veg dish and for non-veg, it is the forgotten or very rarely used items. For instance, the fish that was served isn’t the one, we get normally from the market. The produce is local but we tend to forget them owing to the preference given to other varieties. He is trying to overcome that.
Each and every dish was prepared with meticulous attention. There us a great variation in the ingredients and masala being used in fish,chicken, Mutton etc.,
I also had a chance to taste few of the veggie fish and trust me, they tasted divine.
If you ask me as to which one is my favourite from the above, I have no words 😁
Try it!! You’ll surely be falling in love with it 👍 #DesiDi
Place: Well Done up with mixed decor from across the country. Each section of the has different decor, this actually makes us feel good about it..
Food : The menu is short of nothing less than DHAABA Food. Our order was Veg , Starters included Mushrooms and Egg Bhurji Masala Papad. Both were good and made to order. Main Course of Dal Makhani and Aloo Gobi Subji. Light on Masalas and stomach. Our accompaniments were Roti and Parathas, Came hot and soft.
Service: Friendly staff and the chef came for our feedback on the food.
A Goto place.
Overall a Good restaurant that can cater any sort of folks.
NOTE: This restaurant is relocated from Perambur to Kasthuri Estate.
The place is easy to spot and vibrant. The ambience is good. There are separate areas, one with lively and quirky interiors and another with dim lighting and romantic ambience. The staff is friendly. The menu is not very large. However you will have decent choices.
I ordered a multi saag paneer. The taste was pretty descent. The balti chicken was rather tasty. The naan was crispy yet soft. The perfect amount of chewy.
Then i had the green apple jalebi. The jalebi has a sweet yet tangy taste. It was served with ice cream and rabdi.
The quantity of the food was more than enough for one person.
