Food trail: On a quest for the creamiest Irani chai in Hyderabad

Live Mint  

The atmosphere inside Niloufer café at Hyderabad is charged with activity. Waiters deftly balance trays laden with hot buns and other baked goods, while customers sit around savouring piping hot Irani chai. Irani chai is low on water and hence is also known as paani kam chai, some cafes add khoya or mawa to the chai to give it a unique taste. “Irani chai is to tea what maska is to a bun, so let’s visit the closest Irani café for some chai, bun maska and kheema pao for some pun and fun,” says Shubra Verma, an insurance professional and a fan of Irani chai. This place attracts crowds from all over Hyderabad and many tourists visiting Charminar make a mandatory trip to Nimrah to savour their chai with some macron coconut cookies, Osmania biscuits, lukhmi and shirmal.
