Kleio | Kleio Restaurant Chennai | Kleio Chennai

If you are wondering how to pronounce it, or what Kleio means, well give you a helping hand. Pronounced kleos, it traces its origin to Greek mythology: Kleio was one of the nine Muses and the goddess of history and heroic poetry. It was Kleio who introduced the alphabet to Greece.

Now Kleio has other meanings too. It stands for wholesome, hearty food, sheer indulgence, a place to laze an afternoon away and if you tell us, its Greek to you, we will believe you!

Yes, we are talking about Kleio, the hottest new eatery in town! Enter to the fine aroma of coffee, sweep your gaze across the restaurant and you will see chocolate coloured cushions, tables in a shade of mocha, and Cappuccino coloured, comfortable chairs to lounge in. Large oil paintings dominate the walls, adding colour and cheer.

The menu is massive: sandwiches, wraps, quiche, milkshakes, coffees and a mouthwatering range of cakes and pastries! If its a sandwich you fancy, take your pick from brown, multigrain or white bread. Try the deliciously simple, yet totally awesome coleslaw sandwiches! Grilled chicken sandwiches are a concoction of chunky chicken, dripping mayonnaise, ripe tomatoes and Iceberg lettuce! If you like things spicy, try the paneer tikka sandwich. The chicken Mexican wrap is piquant and spicy enough for Indian palates. The quiche is a bit heavy, overloaded with cheese and butter.

Quench your thirst with their array of milkshakes: chocolate, strawberry, banana, vanilla, frappes, latte and iced cold coffee. The best mix was banana milkshake with peanut brittle. Crunchy, creamy and rather sinful! If you like it hot, you could take your pick from Cappuccino, Venetian or our very own South Indian filter coffee. Tea anyone? Choose from Darjeeling, Lopchu, Typhoo and invigorating masala chai.

Feel like indulging? Take your pick from fresh cream and pineapple, strawberry crush, apple pie or lemon meringue. Not watching your calories? Then how about ordering their Kahlua or mango mousse? Let loose the chocoholic in you: chocolate gateaus, luscuious chocolate cream pastries, chocolate sponge cakes with blood red cherries, dark chocolate, white chocolate, chocolate ganache, they have it all!

This restaurant also pretends to be a library! Yes, you can read a book, browse through books, work on your laptop or just catch up on the days newspaper! But we assure you, doing all of this is so much better over a steaming hot cup of coffe, a grilled sandwich or masala chai! Try resisting if you can
