- Food
Hyderabadi
cuisine is very distinct from the rest of the Indian cuisine. It is a
blend of heavy Mughal influences and some elements of Telangana cuisine
as well as the surrounding Andhra region.
There are several star hotels in Hyderabad which serve several different cuisines
- Taj
Krishna, Ramada Manohar, Hotel Viceroy, Sheraton Kakatiya Hotel &
Towers, Taj Residency, Best Western Amrutha Castle, Taj Banjara
- The Green Park, Park Inn Aditya, The Viceroy Hotel, Comfort Inn Woodbridge
Among
the famous restaurants in Hyderabad is the Bawarchi, which specializes
in Biryani . People used to say as Bawarchi Biryani . Some of the other
famous dishes include Veggie Biryani , Baghare Baygan, Khubani ka Mitha
and Double Ka Mitha , as well as Hyderabad-style Halim (a slang word
for Haris), a meat dish resembling oatmeal , traditionally eaten by
Muslims during the holy month of Ramadan . As many Hyderabadis have
been traveling to the Middle East in search for employment
opportunities, particularly to the Gulf regions of Dubai , Qatar and
Bahrain , the Halim dish is also gaining recognition in those regions.
Local chains that serve the Halim and other Hyderabadi specialties in
Hyderabad are Yusufain Pista House, Madinah Hotel, 555 Hotel, Café
Bahar and Hyderabad House .
G.
Pulla Reddy is famous for pure ghee sweets in Hyderabad and other
cities abroad. Other renowned joints include Gokul Chat near Sultan
Bazar , famous for its North Indian chat, which is liberally doused
with spices.
