Advocate Rapolu Bhaskar has submitted a detailed representation highlighting the potential of Hyderabad’s rich culinary traditions as a major attraction for locals and tourists alike. Famous for its iconic dishes like Hyderabadi Biryani, Haleem, and Irani Chai, the city’s food culture is a blend of Mughlai, Persian, and Andhra influences, offering a unique gastronomic experience. Bhaskar emphasized the need for initiatives to preserve this culinary heritage while promoting Hyderabad as a global food destination.

In his representation, Bhaskar highlighted the diverse appeal of Hyderabad’s cuisine, from its luxurious royal recipes to its bustling street food scene. He pointed out that traditional dishes like Qubani ka Meetha, Pathar ka Gosht, and Mirchi ka Salan are not just delicacies but cultural treasures that narrate the city’s history. Additionally, Hyderabad’s street food, including kebabs, shawarma, and dosas, has its charm, drawing food enthusiasts from all walks of life.

Bhaskar also raised concerns about the underutilization of Hyderabad’s culinary heritage as a tool to attract global tourists. He noted the absence of structured food tourism initiatives, such as dedicated food streets, organized food trails, or culinary festivals that could showcase the city’s rich flavors. Furthermore, he stressed the importance of promoting Hyderabad’s food culture on digital platforms to reach a broader audience.

To address these issues, Bhaskar proposed establishing food hubs in key locations of the city, offering clean, organized spaces for food vendors and tourists to experience Hyderabad’s culinary delights. He also suggested hosting regular food festivals to celebrate the city’s diverse food traditions and engaging in collaborations with international chefs to elevate Hyderabad’s global culinary status.

Advocate Bhaskar believes that transforming Hyderabad’s food culture into a major attraction will not only boost tourism but also provide economic opportunities for local vendors and chefs. His vision is to make Hyderabad a global culinary hotspot, preserving its rich traditions while promoting innovation and inclusivity in its food industry
