Hyderabad may be celebrated for biryani and kebabs, but another dish has slowly won the city’s heart is momos. These dumplings, once a staple of the Northeast and Tibet, are now an evening favourite across the city. Affordable, filling, and bursting with flavour, momos have found a home everywhere from college-side carts to trendy cafes.
Hyderabad has even given them its own twist with smoky tandoori, cheesy fusions, and dessert experiments. It’s a perfect steamy delight for the monsoon season.
