Apart from the places that you will explore on your own during the various excursions into the city, there are a few places that you may want to go provided your sightseeing gives you time off!
Palace Heights , off Abids Road
Serves traditional Hyderabadi, European and Chinese cuisine. Excellent panoramic views of Hyderabad from the restaurant.
Madina , near Charminar
It is one of the oldest and best examples of old Hyderabad dining. What makes its interesting is that it was opened in 1947!
At one time, when Hyderabad was richer than Saudi Arabia (the oil still not having been discovered there), the proceeds used to go to Saudi to help poor Muslims there! The place serves traditional Hyderabadi Biryani, Haleem, Nahari and many more.
You must dine at some of the Irani Hotels while you are in Hyderabad. A good Irani hotel is Cosmopolitan inNarayanguda and Olympia inAbids.
How can you miss the world-famous Hyderabadi Biryani? The place to go for a good Hyderabad Biryani is Shadab, opposite the restaurant Madina.
