Bezawada Bhavan — Restaurant in Hyderabad

A relatively new restaurant in the heart land of Hyderabad, has made a name for itself amongst the plethora of eateries in the city serving authentic Telugu cuisine. The cuisines of the two Telugu states-Telangana and Andhra Pradesh is almost as popular as the Hyderabadi Nizami cuisine in the city. The use of regional ingredients like Gongura leaves, Guntur chillies and Ulavacharu adds a myriad of flavours to this rich cuisine which is the spiciest in the country by far. The ambiance for the place gives you a feel of rustic earthy setting with fine dining sitting for family and friends.

We were invited for a blogger’s session and the review for the restaurant is as follows:

SOUPS:

The ‘Manchow Soup’ was sweet and sour, medium spicy, and had finely chopped vegetables served with crisp noodles.

APPETISERS:

The ‘Royyala Vepudu’ has golden fried prawns stir fired in an extremely spicy dried spice mix.The ‘Mirapakaya Kodi Vepudu’ is an Andhra styled chicken roasted chicken prepared with red hot Guntur chillies sauted and fried cashews. The ‘Tawa Fish’ had shallow fried thinly battered fish that had a melange of spices.

MAIN COURSE:

‘Kodi Pulusu’ was a delicious and spicy andhra chicken curry made with a Guntur chilli spice mix and a hint of coconut. The ‘Gongura Royyalu’ had prawns cooked in sour green sorrel leaves tempered with red chillies and mustard seeds.The ’Nellore Chepala Pulusu’ had rohu fish in a delicious, spicy and slightly tangy gravy. The traditional gravies were served with steamed rice and hot poori. The ‘Kodi Pulao’ is a famous telugu wedding dish that is basically a spicy native pulao, where fragrant rice is cooked along tender chicken pieces in a rich coconut and poppy paste which is scrumptious. The ‘Dosa with Mutton Pulusu’ went well together and the crispy crunchy ‘Vada’ was savoury.

DRINKS:

The ‘Lassi’ was thick, creamy and the ‘Buttermilk’ was refreshing which are the must order to gulp down the spicy food served here.

DESSERTS:

‘Brownie with ice cream’ was amazing as the nutty chocolaty brownie was homemade and fresh. The ‘Semiya Payasam’ was a little too sweet for my taste. The Rawa Kesari’ was delicious and is a must order to end the meal.

The restaurant is launching ‘South Indian Buffet’ serving a variety of authentic telugu delicacies starting New Year 2020 at a steal away price of just Rs. 499/-

Recommendations: Buttermilk, Mirapakaya Kodi Vepudu, Nellore Chepala Pulusu, Kodi Pulao,Dosa with Mutton Pulusu, Rawa Kesari.

Mamas kitchen, new one which started its operations from sep 2019, serving some stupendous south Indian cuisine at the same building shared by the Repete and revolt at jubilee hills road no 36 in the first floor, next to the tonique building.

There ambience was also very good and it's very spacious as it can accommodate around 100-150 strength at once and they do have a open kitchen.

$ Tomato Shorba $ Such a spicy shorba I had, just a spoon of it will make your taste buds happier.

$ Veg manchuria $ When comes to veg, manchuria is the first thing which comes to my mind and they were perfect in doing the same and half of our stomach was filled by manchuria as it was very tasty, we couldn't stop eating them.

$ Paneer Tikka $ One more veggie, which impressed us to the core and it was such softer and perfectly cooked.

$ Tawa fish fry $ Such a bliss having this fish fry perfectly made and we can feel the perfect taste of the andhra style fish fry served with the fried curry leaves.

We were very excited about the main course, as we were craving and waiting for their amazing spicy main course food.

$ Garelu with Nellore chapala pulusu and kodi pulusu $

This authentic combination of garelu with non veg gravies is only seen in the south part of india and especially in andhra region. Hot and crispy garelu with the spicy kodi pulusu makes the perfect combo and trust me, if you haven't tried that yet, you miss some amazing combination in the food .

$ Mutton Curry with Ragi sankati $ Such a thick and spicy mutton curry being the one of the best items from the menu, munching with the rayalaseema special ragi sankanti makes the perfect combo.

$ Kodi puloa $ Coming to the puloa, again and again I would specify the same, such an aroma of spicyness in the puloa too and I personally love the spicy food any time, the pieces were also well cooked.

$ Veg Thali $ We also had their veg thali which included multiple curries and pickles followed by puris was also scrumptious.

$ Desserts $ After such an amazing spicy food, you would obviously want to cool down with the sweeteners. We had semiya payasam, gulab jamum and Rava Kesari which were absolutely perfect In taste and they do make all the deserts at their home and they actually tasted as the home foods.

Finally, if you love the south indian thalis and other food with good amount of spice, then trust me mamas kitchen will never disappoint you.

Every state of India has its own specialty. Food from Andhra Pradesh is famous for the rich seasoning and lots of variety. Andhra food is so famous and popular not only in South India but also the whole of India and worldwide. In every part of India, every state, almost all famous cities having Andhra restaurants. Andhra food is so delicious with a spicy and good taste that its savored by all the commons in neighbor states of Andhra & Telangana. Mama's Kitchen, a new entrant to the food space of Hyderabad which has started its operations a couple of months back, serves some really great Andhra cuisines. It's located on the most popular Road no. 36 in Jubilee Hills area, sharing the same building as Repete Brewery. Coming to their menu, they have an exquisite range of Andhra dishes ranging from Vepudus, some tasty Pulus & Dosas to healthy Ragi sangatis along with a good range of North Indian preparation as well. However, we visited this place for trying out their buffet menu which is available to all at a really affordable price for both Non-veg & vegetarians. Starting off with appetizers, we got Kodi Vepudu, Tawa Fish fry & chepala vepudu; tawa fish fry had the right amount of marination done with an apt balance of spices with a juicy fish pieces, not to forget the kodi vepudu had the chicken fried chunks averagely placed in terms of the spice levels as it should have hit a higher note. Even the Medu vada along with chutney went quite well as they had a crispy texture, quite evenly fried. Moving onto the mains, we got the popular combo of Ragi sangati & chepala pulusu which was just got better with each serving we consumed. Even they have few pulaos like Kod Pulao, Tomato rice & others which are the top picks from the menu. Gongura Royalla was another dish, a semi-dry preparation of prawns tossed with spices which tasted really great. Ending the fare with desserts, they had Semiya Payasam, Gulab Jamun & ice-cream, all of which were nicely done however, the presence of authentic Andhra sweet dishes was missing which can be added up. To sum up, at such an affordable price Mama's Kitchen is offering a never before seen Andhra food buffet which is a must-try, all set to fulfill the taste buds of the people...
