Think Global, Eat Local: But, Where Is Genuine Hyderabadi Biryani

No where in Hyderabad, says Vir Sanghvi, published in Hindustan Times, February 21, 2009:

Extract: "I had gone to Hyderabad imagining that anybody could eat great biryani
on the street. But the truth is that the local biryani is not very different
from the stuff you get in the streets of Bombay or Delhi. To eat the real thing,
you have to have rich friends with a noble lineage." continue reading the Hyderabad

‘Hyderabad still brings a rush of emotions’- Hindustan Times


Shyam Benegal
"Like everyone else, I have many identities. But there is one that I love to flaunt. Of being a Chitrapur Saraswat. I cannot advance a single convincing reason why, except that it gives me the somewhat harmless and naïve pleasure of seeming exclusive. The census of the community taken in 2001 says that we are all of 22,000 in the whole wide world, i.e. much less than the Parsis. We are, I have been assured, not quite as endangered as the Veddas, Jarawas or the Todas. Nevertheless, a micro minority in a country of considerably more than a billion. The very idea of being part of such a tiny and exclusive community gives me a great high. They have their own home language; one of the many dialects of Konkani. To make the Konkani we speak specially exclusive, we dispense with the term Konkani and call it ‘our language’ or ‘our tongue’. Nothing could be more exclusive than that." continue reading
