Food:
I have always imagined and wished a coffee shop brings in dishes which one would see in an English sitcoms. I don't mean the regular Sandwiches and Pastas, but different items. This is the first cafe I have come across in Chennai, to serve Churro. Just like the ones Joey had in Friends! The churro was served with a drizzle of caramel sauce and chocolate sauce on the side. I would most definitely return just for these.





They serve a variety of shakes and their Lindt Chocolate shakes are to die for. I had the Cafe Latte. A true latte lover in me wanted to sample em! The brew was perfecto! They serve up some delicious sandwiches as well, if your in the mood for a quick bite. If you were to order one, I would truly recommend the brown bread sandwich over the regular ones.




They have a big block of a chocolate cake which resembles the tiny cake at Sandy's and a tasty Waffle. A small talk with owner gives me an idea of what is in store for the future. I had a small idea which I passed it along to the owner who seemed to be on the same page as me. A savoury waffle such as Waffle burger! :P Yes that would be different.

Ambiance:
Cozy and neat ambiance!

Price:
The price points here is very reasonable. Infact seeing the price of Lindt Chocolate shake I was shocked that I had paid a similar amount at another cafe in 2008. It should cost around Rs 300/- for two.

Munch Cafe is located inside the DLF building diagonally opposite to Apollo First Med, Kilpauk.

Tex-Mex is a combination of Texan and Mexican food. Finding proper Tex-Mex cuisine in chennai is  really hard. I feel that Texas Fiesta does not serve pucca Tex-Mex. I am heading here, after quite sometime, maybe over a year or two. Was hoping that the food had changed from inspired Tex-Mex to authentic Tex-Mex.

We placed our order. I picked the Chicken Fajita and my friends ordered a Grilled Chicken Breast, Cheese and Onions Quesadilla and Chilli Beans Burrito. I had a taste of the Grilled Chicken Breast, the meat was nice and tender with the mild BBQ taste to it. But I felt the chicken portion was way too small for the dish, the mash potatoes were nice and creamy. Coming to my Grilled Chicken Fajita, it tasted nice but not Tex-Mex nice. It was very Indianised, sour cream on the salad tasted like curd, the mexican rice was more like tomato rice and the grilled chicken was definitely grilled but I thought this dish said it was double spicy with two chilli's on it, I just could not get any spiciness from the dish. My friend who had the burrito also felt the same about the filling. She kept saying it was very Indianised. I did not get to have the two vegetarian dishes, so my opinion is restricted to the non-vegetarian dishes. I felt the food was nice, but not authentic.
