Since the first dum pot

From Hyderabad to your table

Bawarchi cooks the way it's done back home: basmati and slow-cooked meat layered with saffron, sealed under dough and steamed over a low flame until the rice drinks every drop of flavor. Curries simmer to order, breads come straight off the tandoor wall, and every kitchen follows the same recipes — so a plate in Texas tastes like a plate in New Jersey.

  • Time-honored family recipes
  • The same standards in every kitchen
  • Chefs trained in the Hyderabadi tradition
