Sri Vyshnavi

 Every single item is very spicy here. Good spicy I mean. They offer the small prawns curry that is not offered at many places in the city. And it’s really awesome to have with plain white rice (+rasam if you want!). Their mixed non veg pulao is also a test to your taste buds when it comes to spice 😊. The mutton curry and the fish pulusu are also quite good. However, the best dish according to me is their pachi pulusu ! Perhaps because of the relief it brings after all the spicy stuff. This is only a curry take away point and not a dine-in place, in KPHB.

Meenakshi Parcel and Catering

For simple pleasures of life, the curry points in Kukatpally are the best! Meenakshi is once such place – white rice, chicken fry, Joint Chicken Fry and Mutton Fry were all very nice. The spices weren’t overpowering and that’s what made me enjoy the meals from this place even more.

Ishtah

They have Fried Idly! I love Fried Idly and they have fried idly! And they make good fried idly! Infact they also make Idly 65 😊.Now that you understood that I ate fried idly here, let me also tell you that we had their thali and it was also good. The place offers a wide variety in their menu too. 

Jai Bhavani Food Court

On the now busy main road of KPHB Phase 13, this is an all purpose food court offering some very good street food! They open at 7 in the morning and are buzzing till probably 11 in the night! The day begins with a variety of breakfasts and a variety of chutneys (Actually, I’ve seen this only in Kukatpally area where they serve multiple chutneys including Bombay chutney). They also have curries and rice for lunch and dinner. Their Veg curries (especially Bhindi and Brinjal), Chicken Fry, Egg Burji, Egg masala, and chicken curry are all good. Their Leg piece fry isn’t that great though – most times the piece is not cooked through. And then there is also a Chinese Bandi in the same arena – thus completing the troika of Tiffins, Curries and Chinese! Fried Rice and Chilly Chicken is quite tasty here. I’ve seldom been disappointed while getting food from this place!

Gunturolla Vanta

This is a small curries joint on the 13^th phase KPHB road but what they offer is definitely not small! Their mutton curry (normal or gongura) quantity does real good justice to the price – I don’t recollect many places giving this quantity for that price. And oh, the curries are quite tasty too! Chicken fry, Chinthachiguru chicken, mutton curry, guthi vankaya curry and the tomato dal were also very tasty with white rice (ofcourse!). Real comfort food for the tummy!

Sree Harsha Delux Mess

After hearing so much about this place, especially from the main Ameerpet branch, it was high time that food was had from here! And it surely didn’t disappoint. Chicken Fry Piece briyani was quite tasty, but just the white rice with chicken rice was also real good! Now wonder this place is so famous for their meals and non-veg items.

Padmavathi Deluxe Mess

Simple – white rice and chicken fry. I’d order this again for sure.

Savla's Home Food

 Many places claim to be home food but only few live up to the taste. Savla’s is definitely one such place. For me, the best example of home food was their Mango Juice during the summers 😊. Their thalis are sumptuous – dal is good, paneer butter masala is awesome, chole masala is good, pulkas and parathas are also very good. Other friends have mentioned how their Theplas are also quite good.

Subayya gari hotel

 I guess the experience of eating in the hotel will be very different from ordering this to home. Because of the pandemic, never got a chance to eat at the hotel. Their meals are quite famous in Kakinada and they have opened up in Hyderabad also now. Nothing much to complain about their meals 😊 – most curries and fry items are tasty and you will have a fulfilling meal once you eat here! In addition, their sweets are also good – we tried their “nuvvula undalu” as a separate order and liked them too.

Sairam Mess

After hearing about this place for nearly two years, the stars finally aligned for a visit to this place 😊. This is a simple place with a simple menu. Veg Meals, with options for non-veg fry and curry items. We were a large group, so got a chance to have their chicken fry, mutton fry, omlette and chicken curry. All of them tasted quite good! Infact, even their veg curries served in the meals are also very good 😊. This place can be frequented for very nice food within a very affordable budget too!

Nellore vaari mess (Shamshabad!)

If you are going to Shamshabad, don’t think of eating anywhere except at this mess. Meals + chicken fry + mutton fry is the best combination! Even their standalone meals are very good – they serve unlimited amount of flavoured rice and white rice too! We loved their chutneys and curries also – this place is like heaven for people craving for simple yet tasty food! This should be your only choice if you are going to Shamshabad! 

Price: 200 for two

Location: Shamshabad

Indu Deluxe

After about 10 years of wanting to eat here, we finally get a chance one day! Indu is famous for it’s meals and no wonder! We ordered chicken fry and mutton fry to go along with their sumptuous meals. Mutton fry was not upto the mark but chicken fry was quite good! There is nothing much to order here – meals + nonveg curry of your choice pretty much sums up the menu here :D 

Price: Rs. 250-300 for two

Location: Lakdi-ka-pool (beside Kamat)

Avial

Another veg only place in Hitech City. I heard many good things about their buffet and so went there to try it out. And lo – they don’t have buffet on the day I go to eat there! Had meals along with some paneer item – was not bad, but if I had to have meals, I would definitely prefer some good mess than Avail :)
