I'll show you look at this it's a traditional the script any in Hyderabad

everybody can make this made this one try once if you want to be try to pace

it up please right all right so before we sit

down we've been invited to try a biscuit raise from the tray this is amazing this

is the traditional biscuit oh it's kind of it's quite a heavy one to love

oh man that's good you want reminds me of a friend Rico much of a shortbread

cookie its buttery it's also just melts in your mouth

oh my gosh that's so good it's not overly sweet either I taste more watery

than it does sweet I love it this is the most famous biscuit

every dude so buttery so buttery it's like the whole in size bill butter yeah

it's so cool they invited us to the back of the kitchen where they're showing us

how they prepared the local cookies you have one guy loading it up on a long

stick and the other guy throwing it into the oven and there's so much space in

the back of the oven that they can put like maybe 10 20 trays and at once and

here come the cookies the biscuits fresh from the oven

incredible look at that so these are 25 varieties of cookies that you make there

do you make these every day sir yes Wow it looks delicious

thank you so guys these are the 25 different varieties of cookies that you

can get at this Nimrah bakery absolutely incredible the diversity and there's

some that have coconut or some that have mixed nuts mixed fruits pistachios

there's some cream stuffed in the middle chocolate they've got it all in they've

got it all I'm gonna try to over try to so I'm gonna start with first cookie I'm

getting coconut with a cherry on top this looks amazing

I love coconut so I know I'm gonna like this one they take a big bite to get the

cherry in there

Oh wonderful my coconut is so sweet and chewy it's just like it's become melted

and it was fused together it's very dense oh it's just so rich and delicious

oh my gosh this is one of my favorite alright for

my second selection I picked the one diet two biscuits with cream inside so

let's pop the hood time to try this

Oh crumbly in the middle I think we have a vanilla and lemon filling delicious

this is a great second choice I mean we've been trying a few now everything

has been delicious here if we weren't moving on to try more things maybe I try

all 25 this is special Iranian chai it's a specialty of this

particular cafe let's try it oh yeah so rich so flavorful milky so spicy - a little bit frothy

on top makes for a great snack had a great experience at this cafe

it's just bustling look at how many people coming in and out all the time

that is the sign of an excellent place to visit if you're traveling always look

for a busy location look for locals coming in that's how you know it's good

irani chai with a little cookie that is the way to do it man that's the ultimate

way to do it

definitely let it cool down a little bit I don't know why in India they love super

super hot chai I know 35 degree weather I'm scared to go outside after this I mean

I'm from Miami I can not drink coffee in the heat I'm from Canada I'm getting

destroyed out here with that chai in the heat that's good

I'm in desperate need to cool off after walking around the heat like I'm just

drenched in sweat so I've come to this place Milan Juice Centre where I'm gonna try mango malai

for the first time I've never had mango malai it obviously has mangoes and

has some milk based products it is made from heating non homogenized whole milk

to about 80 degrees and then allowing it to cool so it forms a thick yellowish

layer of fat which is then skimmed off all right time to try that really taste

of mangoes was a big thick slices of mango very thick fatty milky substance

like the consistency is just so chunky like look at those chunks let's try

shrinking that hmm you know what guys it's more like more filling and as

refreshing it's a kind of thing that you'd have maybe like it's almost like a

dessert pudding in my fave

our next stop guys is that Akbar Food Centre as you can see I've got a nice

spread of food so I'll let you know what we've got chicken 65 over here ginger

chicken over here which I think has bones and parantha this feels like a

roti all right so let's try first one chicken 65

like popcorn chicken man but smoke smoking outside boy tender next up

there's a ginger check out it has a copious amount of sauce no need to see

that but the chicken ginger sauce is like slow-moving lava going down the

drain it's gonna pick up a piece of try it

it's just covered in that sauce Oh

oh I thought oh wow I love it so gingery it's really spicy

so flavorful but oh my gosh it's hot super delayed onset with the spice like

that city be really hard that sauce is very close encoded sauce I

look I've gotten all of my fingers so ROM apply to situate chip in the grab

the parantha break it in half and you know what it's so spicy I've got

to try it again let's try it again

there's only five rupees each you're talking about seven eight US cents you

can just order tons of these and that's how you can clean up all the sauce I

mean I suppose you could even put the chicken in here make a little bit of a

sandwich I mean there's a lot of things you can do with this flat bread taste me

I mean I like I really like the food here quite affordable too so I'd

recommend this place I late

while we were in the old town we also visited Charminar which is one of

Hyderabad's top attractions Charminar is a mosque that was built in 1591 and its

name literally translates into four pillars or four minarets we decided to

go up to get a better view of the old town

in terms of admission is 25 for locals 300 for foreigners and if you want to

take video like we're gonna do it's an additional 25 rupees which is actually

not so bad not so bad and you gotta know this when you go to India it's always 10

times the price of a foreigners it is and remember yesterday we paint a

thousand rupees for video but it was worth it it was worth it up absolutely /

now they're ready but this is meeting 1591 this is all steps up the minaret I

wouldn't say these steps out of that sleep but it's definitely not for anyone

who's claustrophobic I sort of am but I'll do it anyways I'm doing it for you

guys so you get the views from up top one thing I'll say guys is that this is

some good exercise and burning off my breakfast I had a huge breakfast this

morning ate lots of dosa

what an experience it was to come up top here I mean the views were incredible had so

many great views of the whole city and the other part I like was we've got

to meet some other locals the hangout take some more selfies

20

this is pomegranate straight pomegranate yeah straight pomegranate and it's so

refreshing like I saw this guy I saw this stand and I saw another stand like

further down the street and I'm like I know I'm glad try this have to try this

and at that price 15 for one you can't beat it

thank you oh look at that man it's all sliced up

you see the pomegranate seeds you know what it's gonna go dig right in oh yeah

so juicy so sweet sour mmm it's amazing for 10 rupees

it's maybe the best value snack I've had all day Wow

so these are the faces of two pretty tired dudes it's gonna be our last stop

of the day it's been incredible and we're gonna finish off with lassi which

you just got handed check that out looks delicious we're gonna cool off with this

I call it a day final sweet stack of the day or getting

a lassi apparently this is the best place to get it looks amazing looks

really chunky like look at the chunks of them here so lassi if you haven't tried

it it's basically a yogurt based drink but this one is special it has malai it also

has ice cream in it look at that ice cream and time to try it I'll try the

ice cream part later oh yeah oh it's one of the chunkier lassi I've ever had

it's very thick it's rich it's refreshing - they could taste a little

bit think it's like a raspberry raspberry sauce that's been infused into

it

let's taste it try some of that ice cream I've been told to mix it so I'm

gonna do that from the top corner let's try that alright guys so I think I'm

going to end the video here what an incredible food tour in the
