Hyderabad Visit- Qutb Shahi Tombs and other short stories

It is very difficult to generalise. Everyone’s adventure is original.
– Bernard Pivot

Oh Hyderabad!The land famous for its biriyani , that I was told I simply had to try out when I get there and once there I asked the taxi guy to recommend a place to eat biriyani and he told me of a restaurant that has been in existance for over 60 years; whose patrons have come from far and wide and the higher you move up in the building, the more expensive your meal gets, dispite it being the same restaurant. It has levels.
I wasnt there for long, barely a weekend, but I had a great time meeting the people, eating the food, laughing whenever I caught site of telegu, the language spoken in Andhara Pradesh, the state where the city is located, mostly because after getting used to seeing hindi and marathi words, the rounded forms of telegu reminded me of fat babies lying in the sun.
