Unlike the earlier jhal-mudi seller, this vendor is slightly more traditional. Only that he is at Eliots Beach and not at the Marina, the birthplace of the sundal. And no, you won't be successful at getting a true Madrasi to think that sundal could have been thought of anyplace else!

I really like this image.
SUNDAL WAS BORN AND BROUGHT UP IN MARINA. THIS IS ITS SECOND HOME.
The true sundal on the beach is the one you get from the small kids and ladies who bring it in tin boxes, with one wall of the box made of glass, and which also contains murukku ... Now thats thenga manga patani sundal !!!
Cheers
Sundal,Modakam & Kozhukkattai are the most delicious items liked by Ganapathy. No wonder Ganapathy likes it very much. He might have started liking it after his visit to Marina!
very nice photo!
@ Frank: Thank you! Hope to see you around here more often!!
@ lviss: Just renting, you mean?
@ Hobbes: Can't remember the last time I actually saw one of those boxes... are they still around?
@ Narayanan: You mean during the Chaturti when they take him out to sea :)
@ Jazzy: Thank you! If I'm right, this is your first time here - so, welcome! (I like your Tuzla DP blog)
