  The authentic, home-style flavours of East Godavari District have been brought to life and manifested under the expert hands of culinary specialist Master Chef Ramakrishna in Godavari Ruchulu. The highlight would be the preparation of traditional dishes like Araku Bamboo Chicken – traditional chicken recipe of tribals of Araku Valley, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh., Gongura Mamasam – A traditional gongura mutton recipe from the spicy city of Guntur. Gongura (Sorrel leaves) is a leafy vegetable used widely in Andhra cuisine and has a slight sour taste, Natu kodi Vepudu – This is an Andhra style of chicken fry, it can be prepared with country Chicken, Aratikaya Vepudu – is a Andhra style Raw Banana Dry Sabzi. It is a simple recipe but tastes amazing as such or when paired with rice and dal/rasam. Gutti vankaya kura – is a popular stuffed brinjal curry recipe from Andhra Cuisine. Panasapandu Pulao – dum cooked light and fragrant pulao made with kathal or unripe jackfruit. Pesarattu – is a dosa like preparation native to Andhra Pradesh. It is made with green gram eaten as a snack or a breakfast meal.We started off with the Chintachi Royallu Veep, deep fried prawns with chili – a traditional staple of East Godavari District, was extremely tender spicy and moist. The prawns were just perfectly fried and had a great balance of spice without burning your mouth. If you have any fear of spices, this unbelievably tasty Mirapakaya Kodi might just change your mind. Chicken pieces were first braised to pack in flavour, then deep fried to provide crisp edges and a good hit of smokiness.You may not want to share the Kormenichapala Pulusu, a perfectly cooked fish with ridiculously crisp taste, and an unassuming authentic Andhra style rich gravy that brims with flavour. The Mamidakai Kobbari Palhio – rice cooked with fresh coconut & raw mango paints the perfect pairing, and might just be the best thing you’ll have that night.Another interesting dish was the Natu Kodi Kura. If one hadn’t read the description, there would be no way that one could have guessed it was made from — Ghuntur chilies & coconut. It was perfectly smooth and juicy when paired with Mamsam Jedipappu Biriyani I found it become more tasty and flavourful.But the winner is the Arukku Bamboo Chicken. It was cooked to perfection. Though a little heavy with lots of spices, the dish was indeed the show-stopper in the main course. The chicken pieces were juicy and almost falls off the bone making you applaud the quality of cooking s well as the marination. Sitting well with delicate traditional spices, the Arukku Bamboo Chicken was nothing short of amazing.Off course, no meal is complete without the desserts. The winner here is the Sugar Putharekulu, an absolutely rural delight. The sugar putharekulu was wrapped in a wafer-thin rice starch layer resembling paper and also stuffed with sugar, dry fruits and nuts add to your breaking of resistance to sweet and a great way to end a fantastic meal.

  We went for a late lunch here. They have buffet and a la carte option. We were late for buffet and settled for Madurai meals. They serve Andhra and Madurai meals. First, I have to mention about the lovely ambiance. So relaxed, lovely spacious place, the tables are apart. I so loved it. From outside there is no view of Green Park hotel and we were contemplating if we should go in at all. But wow, the interiors were amazing. Coming to food, loved everything. They were almost done for the day, yet the food was hot. Chapatis were flaky and soft. The yennai kathirikai was the highlight for me. The ample amount of ghee flavor in dal and sambar made it delightful. And the coconut rice was another yum dish. Loved this place and food.
