19 Jun, 2019 by Sabyasachi Raychaudhuri
Summer is on its last leg in Hyderabad, getting a small extension due to the delay in onset of the South-West monsoon. Hyderabadis are looking forward to pleasant weather ahead, though they will miss the summer fruits like mango, ice apple, and jackfruit. While Oh! Calcutta is hosting a promotion of Bengali delicacies using the summer ingredients, Green Park Hotel has an ongoing special summer menu of dishes in their trademark style of modern cuisine. Zega, the Oriental restaurant at The Sheraton is hosting an Indonesian food festival. A look at these and some other prominent food promotions in Hyderabad during June:
