Expat blog gatherings in Chennai

Hi all!

What about meeting the other Chennai Expat.com members in real life? Organizing an Expat.com meet up would be an excellent way to know them! :)

An Expat.com meet up can be a diner gathering, having coffee, a bring and share in a nice place, a cultural or sports activity, etc. There are plenty of possibilities: just imagine a pleasant way to meet new people and old friends from Expat.com.

Feel free to organize Expat.com get-togethers in Chennai: you would meet the other members in a friendly atmosphere and have a good time together!

Of course, we could offer some help to organize your meet up and to inform the community.

So, who's in? Do not hesitate to start a new thread to suggest an Expat.com gathering in Chennai. ;)

Best,

Julien

Great Going. seems like chennai expat is getting some life finally... :)

There is a monthly CS meetup (Couchsurfing.com) though not exactly for expats but often locals and tourists from other nations meet up for the evening, expats also attend this.

1) This place is usually in "Pizza Republic" (Now Sam's Pizza) @ Sterling Road , Nungambakkam, or "By the Bay" in Adyar.
Sam's pizza is large enough to hold meetups and the staff there are used to meetups happening there so they're not fussy and you can take your time hanging out.

2) There is always the "Spring Hotel" in kodambakkam high road. Nice interiors. They got a movie themed restaurant with a projector . There is also a pub attached "Star Rock Cafe" in the basement. This seems fine as other star hotels sporting a pub are too expensive in my opinion.

There are many more. Lets see what other expats/locals have to say about the places.

I am an architect and Ihave hosted a few expats on their initial days in chennai. So it'd be great knowing more people from this community.

Cheers !
