A spicy and satisfying Hyderabadi meal where the drumstick masala and mutton roast stand out.
19 April 2025
I visited Cafe 555 – Aqeeq Restaurant near Masab Tank for a quick meal.
I ordered Rumali Roti with Hyderabadi Drumstick Masala, and the dish arrived hot within about 10 to 15 minutes. The drumstick masala had a rich and spicy flavor, and the drumstick pieces were tender and soft, almost melting in the mouth. The intensity of the spice and flavor reminded me of the energy seen in Karthi’s character from Kaithi.
Next, I tried the Kaju Pulao, which was aromatic and filling. The rice carried a pleasant flavor, and the kaju added a nice richness to the dish.
The Mutton Roast was another strong performer. The meat was perfectly cooked, soft, and juicy, with layers of spice that made it enjoyable throughout the meal.
For drinks, my friend ordered Gold Tea, but for me the Blue Sea Tea stood out as the better option, offering a refreshing finish to the meal.
Overall, the meal felt spicy, flavorful, and satisfying, especially for those who enjoy bold Hyderabadi flavors.
The total bill came to ₹869.
