A lot of dishes originated in Telugu kitchens and now adorn your plates in Hyderabad. And this is one of those places. The biggest star here is the MLA Potlam Biryani, which comes wrapped in a very thin and stretchy omelette, the dish is filled with mutton and prawns to the top. You can also try the crab fry made in hot Andhra masala called Kakinada Peethala Iguru.
Bawarchi Restaurant The place is so renowned for its mutton biryani that dupe restaurants have been appearing on the map. But don’t be fooled, the OG has no other outlets besides this one. They take their food very seriously, and it is reflected in the dishes they serve to you.

Taj Mahal Hotel Don’t worry dear vegetarians: we’ve got your back. The Taj Mahal Restaurant is a vegetarian eatery with a former era’s elegance and has a special place in the hearts of Hyderabadis. Did you know, it was once MF Husain’s favourite haunt? Even a purist would find it tough to find fault in their Hyderabadi Subz Dum Biryani, which is slow-cooked in its own juices of fresh veggies and herbs. Wrap up your dinner with a round of TMH Basundi, and you’re good to go.
