Some etiquette for eating in banana leaf. 1.always sprinkle and wipe before eating. 2.the pointy side of leaf should be always towards your left. 3. Side dishes are served on the top portion ans main dishes on the bottom portion. 4.side dishes they served here are salt, gooseberry pickle, cabbage poriyal- sauted veg, some sort of aviyal - steames vegetables, kootu - veg with lentil and coconut, vada, papadam- a rice crisp, mor melagai. 4. The main dishes served here are rice, nei paruppu-lentil with ghee, sambar, rasam- soupy dish with tamarind, cumin and pepper. Curd. Usually theyre eaten in this order sambar, vatha/puli kulambu ( a thick sour dish with dry/fresh veg), butter or curd, finally rasam and then dessert. 5. After the meal you fold your leaf towards you if you liked the meal, away from you if yourenot satisfied. 6. Salt and pickle are always served first. 7. You can mix and match anything but never mix bread and rice.

I am so glad that your started your video from down South. India is not all Polluted, Congested or Yellow. South Indians are the kindest and friendliest people you will ever meet. Every International Tourist should start their journey from Kerala or Tamil Nadu and gradually move upwards. And you wont be disappointed.

[@EllisWR]

We love india

[@nileshsawkare534]

@@EllisWR Thank you for loving and respecting India. India will love you back 10 times. Sending out these message to all the Indians to take your channel zoom past 1 millions subs in no time. Because the world needs to see that India is not about Golden Triangle and polluted metros. Those are worst places to know India. India's heart lies in rural India like Madurai with its genuinely people who are pure at heart. India is not only, what is shown by BBC and Danny Boyle. Thank you for showing release India from Ellis's eyes. Please visit North East, Lakshadweep and Andaman/Nicobar Islands. Living the nomad life with your vlogs and journey.

Just so that you'll know, all the government buses in Tamilnadu are beaten up because they run at avery cheap price (most of them are free for women) to help the poor who use them on a daily basis, hence not a lot of features for comfort but does the job! Really great videos, hope you're liking our beautiful Tamil Nadu

[@EllisWR]

Yeah everything is great! We like the buses and use them alllll the time!

[@parthipanselvaraj2629]

There are good buses too but that's limited in Madurai. Even other South districts had many good buses than Madurai.

Jigar thanda literally means after drinking it your heart will feel the calm , like u feel after taking a dip in water on a hot day ( jigar = heart & thanda = cold or cool )

​@@EllisWR- Modi is leader of global south and a real people leader ruling India in most democratic way. India in safe hands of Modi and no vested western media can defame him, however hard they trying to be. India is unstoppable under Modi.

I am from Malaysia,my ancestors were from Madurai....Now I am 4th generation of them... Hope so one day I'll visit Madurai...If I got chance to meet my bloodline there.. definitely I am the luckiest one. Not only me, most of Malaysian Indians don't know about their bloodline in India...Only 1st and 2nd gen know about them 3rd,4th or 5th gen completely lost their connection in India.

[@EllisWR]

Hope you visit one day it's a lovely place!!

[@krishnaprasadvavilikolanu8844]

They should visit TN.

[@kumar.193]

That's because Malaysian Tamils take pride by putting down fellow Indian Tamils adopting to views of fellow Malays or Chinese mindset. Things aside if you still wish to there is a program launched called Reaching Your Roots. Just google "reaching your roots tamil nadu" maybe it might help you.
