AMAZING South INDIAN STREET SEAFOOD from the GODS + Madras Lighthouse | Chennai, India
I never cease to be amazed by the wonders of India. There’s a new adventure at every turn in this country and lots of amazingly kind locals who are willing to take time out of their day to guide you through them. It’s truly a special place and it’s one of the reasons why I love it so much. My buddy Sam from Samuel & Audrey joined me for an epic, 18-day tour of the country in November of 2018. He’s the perfect person to go on adventures like this with!

Our food adventure began at a famous food stall on Marina Beach called Sundari Akka Kadai. Everything served here is super fresh and was caught by the local fishermen that morning.
The first thing we ordered was fish fry, prawn gravy, rice, eggplant, and boiled eggs. There was no seating left, so I ate standing up on the beach!
The fish was bathed in a buttery curry that wasn’t too spicy at first, but it snuck up on me later. The prawns were fantastic with the curry and were the star of the show, and the fish was super meaty. Just be careful of the bones – there were a lot of them! This was one of the best seafood meals I’ve had anywhere in the world!
After cleaning my hands, I got some vancharam fry (a fried fish) and mutton (my rice fell to the ground). The mutton had a nice curry on it and was super tender and fatty. I liked it even better than the prawns! The vancharam fry had lots of spices on it and was perfectly cooked and extremely salty. Even the dogs love it!
Next up was some fried squid with curries and onion at the stall next door. It was heavenly! So rich in flavor with a nice crunch. Not only was it my favorite dish of the day, it was my favorite squid dish of all-time!
Our next stop was a fruit stand so we could cool down with some fresh watermelon for Sam and papaya for me. We followed that up with coconut water from a freshly cut coconut. It was so refreshing and exactly what I needed to refuel and rehydrate on this blistering 95-degree day in Chennai! Then the guy cut open the coconut so we could eat the meat inside. It was spongy and so delicious!
Our final stop was Chennai Lighthouse, also known as Madras Lighthouse, which was built in 1977 and is 46 meters tall. We rode the elevator to the lookout point at the top and got some stunning views of the city, including Marina Beach, the ocean, the cricket stadium, the fishermen housing I first saw the day before, and much more. You have to come here whenever you visit Chennai!
I hope you enjoyed our southern Indian seafood excursion and our Madras Lighthouse visit! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave me a comment below. And please subscribe to my channel so you don’t miss out on any of my upcoming food and travel content!

the second lighthouse of the city, the Doric column inside the High Court compound, would turn 170 years old tomorrow.
The first lighthouse was on the roof of the Exchange (now the museum) in the Fort. Known as the Madras Light, it was on wooden scaffolding and had a primitive apparatus — 12 wicks in common finger glasses with small country mirrors for reflectors. The height above sea level was 100 feet and it ought to have been visible 17 miles in the sea but that was rarely the case.
In 1834, vice-admiral Sir John Gore petitioned the East India Company about the necessity to have a more advanced lighthouse. Capt. T.J. Smith of the Corps of Engineers, then on home leave in England, was asked to suggest alternatives. Capt. Smith returned to Madras in 1837 with a new apparatus. But by then ships were anchoring off First Line Beach and not in front of the Fort.
The old lighthouse was therefore considered a location too far to the south and so it was decided the new one would be located on the Esplanade 'between the Fort and the offices of Parry & Co.' Work began on a granite column for it. Designed by Smith who had by then been promoted to Major, its stone was sourced from quarries in Pallavaram. Built on a base of 55-feet breadth, its column rose 84 feet with a tapering diameter — 16 feet at the base and 11 feet at the top.
The entire structure from base to tip had a height of 125 feet. The light was at 117 feet and was visible 20 miles into the sea. The cost came to Rs. 60,000.
The apparatus cost a further Rs. 15,000 and was of the most sophisticated kind for its times. Illumination was by 15 'argand lamps with parabolic reflectors, arranged in three tiers.' A reciprocal type of light as against the earlier rotary model, it flashed its light, the ratio of bright to dark periods being 2:3, with each unit of time being 24 seconds.
On October 9, 1843, newspapers and periodicals carried the announcement that the new Madras Light was completed and it would be fully functional January 1, 1844. Major Smith was asked to remain in charge until a team was trained to take over the handling of the equipment. He handed over charge to the master attendant of the Madras Harbour on October 6, 1845.
The lighthouse had a full complement of staff comprising a superintendent, a deputy, a headman and six lascars. The monthly operational cost, inclusive of 208 measures of oil was Rs. 227 and 3 annas. It was to be the Madras Light until the 1890s, when the High Court's tallest dome became the third lighthouse of Madras.
