    1. Your address reads as 23-404-32/67A-43 (New MCH number 56-678/4A/B-22), while you actually live in the second house beside ZamZam cafe in lane behind Anand Theatre on SP Road.

    2. You end up buying only a Salwar kameez, whether it is a theatre workshop, food mela, consumer expo, designer jewellery show, science show or an automobile convention.

    Its normally prepared during Ramzaan. As merqury said its a paste of chicken and wheat. Heard somewhere that it takes almost a day for the preparation. But the end result is mind blowing. Had it couple of times and it was really delicious.

    And do I have to say anything about "Hyderabadi Biryani"? If you haven't tasted it, you have missed something.
     
  12. tejas

    tejas ..........

    Yeah, usually during the month of Ramzaan, they start making it in the morning, and its done by evening time. Its one of the best things I've ever had. I absolutely love it.
