Telugu Cuisine, the name often makes people think is synonymous to Hyderabadi Cuisine. But there is more to Telegu Cuisine than Hyderabadi. The cuisine of Andhra Pradesh and Telengana is based on regional variation, its rich cultural heritage and the influence of the Royal recipes from the Nawabs.
Their cuisine is a mix between the culinary delegates of the Hindus and Muslims. Being the largest producer of rice in India, Andhra Pradesh and Telengana cuisine is mostly rice based which can be eaten with vegetarian or non-vegetarian. They are also the hub of red chillies particularly Guntur belt, which makes most of the dishes from this belt very spicy or fiery. The traditional delicacies of Andhra and Telengana region are absolutely mouthwatering having a liberal use of spices.
The festival will continue till 14th June 2015 at the O’las Indian Restaurant of Grand Seasons Hotel (Buffet dinner only from 7.00pm till 10.30pm). For visit to Food Festival, please contact Mrs Dhanalaxmi at 0340439999 or laxmi0428@gmail.com or the Grand Seasons Hotel.
