Top 4 Champagne Brunches In Chennai
Get Your Money’s Worth Of Champagne At These Brunches In Chennai
27 Jul, 2017 by Amit Patnaik
For most of us, there is no such thing as cheap champagne. If it pops below the price of an entry level Single Malt, it is probably just sparkling wine or Prosecco. The real deal is made with great care and skill from grapes grown in Champagne, France. Frankly, I have not had (afforded) enough Champagne to write about its complexities. I try to make up for lost time though.
Where is the most affordable bottle of Champagne in the city? At a Champagne brunch. Do not expect a grand Cuvee, but everyone got to start, somewhere right?
A standard Champagne brunch (taxes included) in Chennai is about two-thirds of what you would pay for a bottle at Tasmac. See the math? I have even known gentlemen who have downed a couple over cheese and crackers. Get your money’s worth of Champagne at these brunches in Chennai.
