WHERE TO EAT
Hyderbad is a city of fun and delicious food. You can try out the local restaurant which serves delicious non-vegetarian dishes, or you can choose form the chains of Indian and international Restaurant.
Checker's Cafe is a food court of the more upscale variety, Checkers started off with a bang. And given the competition from Pick'N'Move next door, this was no mean task. Checkers justified its slightly higher prices by offering enough on the menu to keep you interested. A completely veggie joint, Checker's has now lost out on some of its clientele to the new and improved Pick'N'Move, but its range of dishes is still its USP. And that's what makes this little place worth a visit.
Kebab-e-Bahar:- If you have a taste for barbecued fare, try the following: Kebab-e-Chaman (chicken), Pathar ka Ghosht (mutton cooked on a stone), Kakori Kebab (bone less mutton), Tangdi Kebab (drumsticks), Reshmi Kebab (finely minced chicken) and Fish Tikka. Two unusual offerings are Barbecued Lobster with Irani yogurt (Rs 550) and Crab with Black Pepper and Garlic Butter (Rs 495). Of course, all this has to be eaten with your own choice of bread, and a light salad. For vegetarians Kebab-e-Bahar offers meatless kebabs, barbecued paneer (cottage cheese), often done in shashlik style, various types of fresh vegetables in barbecue sauce and a delectable daal. An interesting bargain is the platter — three types of meat kebabs, two vegetables, chutney, salad and bread — for Rs 350. You can have two or three different kinds of popular Indian sweetmeats or ice creams.

Annalakshmi Athithi In:- Like the sweet lime and pomegranate drink, Anarkali, or Rasmadhuri, which is tender-coconut water with lime and honey. Triveni is a mix of grape, pineapple, sweet lime and ginger and specialty-of-the-season Mango Tarang, also has that wicked twist of ginger. Another seasonal favourite Tharboosh is a combo of musk melon, ginger and honey, while the year-round Ginger Pine has the perfect proportions of pineapple and ginger. For a richer treat try Amrit, a mocktail of dry-fruits blended with various spices.Annalakshmi's fruit juices are special because they contain no sugar - honey is the healthier substitute - and most all of them have ginger, which is excellent for digestion. The restaurant also serves a herbal Ayurvedic drink called Ambrosia, which is good for purifying blood and for overall well-being.

Fishland is a wonderful restaurant on the congested Punjagutta-Sanathnagar-Kukatpally section of NH 9, close to the Ameerpet crossroads. Do not get confused by the name - it is indeed a place to eat. Park on the roadside - courtesy of MCH, as long as you pay the fee in due course - climb a flight of steps, and enter. You will notice straightaway that there is nothing pretentious about the place - pink walls, a large primitive painting of a bucolic scene, brass plant holders, standard fans, simple furniture. Very basic, but clean.The basic meal is served in a thali. I got Tomato Soup with Croutons & Cream, Mixed Fried Vegetables, Tomato Daal, Sambhar, Drumstick Curry In Gravy, Rasam, a bowl of Biryani Rice, Chutney, Curd, Papad, Tandoori Roti and Rice. Along with this came Fish Pulusu, Roast Chicken and Mutton Curry. For dessert I was given a slice of strawberry ice cream. It was a hearty meal, and I enjoyed it to the core. My companion stuck to a simple combination of Rice & Prawn Masala (Rs. 75/-). I sampled a small portion of his lunch and understood straightaway why he looked so replete.
