I remember seeing a bunch of girls coming back from their tarams tea (all girls, not girls accompanying some guys) at 2.00 or so one night. Then again, chennai was always a pretty safe city for women (or anyone for that matter). Hope it is so even now. looks like tarams has poshed up a bit. is that Nair's tea shop? despite all the filth, stench and god knows what on the street, these things still evoke a wave of nostalgia. back then in the 90s, 1.30 or 2.30 the gate was always open.
