A Journey with New Delhi Restaurant
Hyderabad
Hyderabad is the second largest city in India and is the gateway between North and South India. Sitting on the shores of Hussain Sagar Lake, it is on it’s way to becoming the technology capital of India - Google, Oracle and Microsoft all have headquarters here - explaining its nickname of “Cyberabad”. Hyderabad has recently undergone a facelift, laying out new wide streets, an expressway, and constructing an office park to hold the new companies moving in. However, despite the changes, the old city of Hyderabad continues on.
Spices and Seafood
Hyderabad is a melting plot of cultures and cuisines. Spices from China and the South Pacific blend with Indian curries and the local seafood.
Sample this tasty melange for yourself in our Lemon Mustard Fish Curry and Mustard Gobi
Featured Dish of the Month
Lemon Mustard Fish Curry and Mustard Gobi (Vegetarian)
For the month of January, get 25% off Lemon Mustard Fish Curry (regular price $16.95)
and Mustard Gobi (regular price $14.95) - Flavorful lemon mustard cooked with onions and jalapenos. Spicy and delicious. We recommend pairing it with a Reisling.

Horses and Hyderabad
Aside from world class cricket and field hocky stadiums, Hyderabad is also home to one of the premier horse racing tracks in India. Started by the Nizams (administrators of the realm) in 1865, it was moved to it’s current location a year later when the current Nizam wanted it closer to his palace. It is also home to the annual Deccan Derby, held every year.
Go Wild Bollywood Style!
Bollywood (fusion word from Bombay and Hollywood) music and dance has become the most popular
international entertainment. Usually set to catchy beat, these scintillating numbers portray the
fusion of several dance forms. This is a new genre of dance that is making its presence more strongly
felt in modern day parties.
Your Bollywood Dance Party comes complete with our inhouse DJ, sound system, dance directions and
optional Bollywood movie screening along with the heart thumping and blood-pumping dance music.
It is a magical and memorable night where you can boogie Bombay style.

Music From Around the World
One of the best things about Compassionate Chefs Cafe is seeing - and hearing - the results of our hard work. Our fundraising last year allowed American musicians to travel to India to teach drumming and other skills to the children of the Ghandi Ashram. The results were recorded and brought to the children at the Tenderloin After School Program. Their musical skills were also recorded and combined into a true World Music composition.
We’re looking forward to seeing what they do next. Find out how you can help. Compassionate Chefs Cafe
