The holy month of Ramzan is coming to an end & I would call it a sin if you haven't tried some delicious eateries around our very own iconic Charminar. Ramadan food walks are always an extraordinary experience. We started our food walk at 6 pm in the evening & ended at 12 am. In the span of this 6 hours, we have found 10 eateries at Charminar which are a must try.
1. Pista House (Charminar)
Having haleem at this branch of Pista House gives you a tremendous experience. It is such a bliss when you have haleem with a view of Charminar. Haleem was amazing here, it has the right amount of bones & meat in it. And the best part is the quality of the haleem that is served by Pista House.
2. Al-Akbar Fast Food Centre
This place serves some delicious fast food like Tandoori chicken, Grilled chicken & Chicken 65. Among all these items,chicken 65 is their best selling dish here. Chicken pieces are well marinated and they are soft enough on the inside.
3. Shah Ghouse
The very first thing which comes to my mind when I hear about this place is Mutton biryani. The aroma of the biryani from their kitchen can't stop you from eating it. The rice, meat ratio & spices....everything was made perfectly great.
4. Shadab Hotel
This is one of the best haleem I have ever had in this season. This was slightly spices & it has got ample amount of ghee & meat in it. It's really worth a try.
5. Nayab Hotel
This is a hidden gem at Charminar which is famous for their Paya masala & Bheja fry with tandoori roti. And it is pocket friendly too.
6. Royal fish court
This is a small outlet which is in the lanes of charminar. This place is serving fish fry from the past 60 years & I bet no other stall can make fish fry better than this. It is just priced at 100/- . Fish was crispy enough outside & it is soft from inside.
7. Matwaale Doodh Ghar
Tha lassi made here was what dreams are made of. We have tried their special lassi with lassi in the bottom and topped with thick layer of malai and strawberry syrup. It is priced at 100/- . It is enough for one person.
8. Milan Juice Centre
Ever thought of having the combination of Mulberries & Malai??. Well, this place offers you this amazing mulberry bowl. These hand-picked mulberries & malai on top of it makes the dessert super tasty.
Mango falooda is another great invention by Milan juice center. This drink has got three layers. Starting from the bottom...Mango juice, malai, chia seeds & topped with almonds.
9. Nazeer Juice Center
Shahjahani kunda is a drink which is made up of honey based cream & topped with three different types of dry fruits which are Pista, Almonds & Akhrot. I bet one person cannot finish this alone.
10. Nimrah Cafe& Bakery
This legendary place which is located right beside the charminar offers one of the best irani chai in hyderabad. The best way to have this chai is with their flavorful osmania biscuits.
