Lead says that it is Chennai only. But last sentence says that it is more places, outside Tamil Nadu also. Some history on when it opened in other places would be good to add. Personally, I know that one is there in Bangalore too in MG Road and that it does not look very new.--GDibyendu (talk) 09:47, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
