With the month of Ramazan starting, we can plan for a grand Haleem Meet in the old city. The old city will be all lighted and decked up.

We can do this any day at short notice. What most folks are hungry for is a "Drive Meet"

I'm not in town on Aug 7. Aug 21 is also circumspect. And not Warangal as the traffic on that road is not conducive for a good drive. I suggest Sri Sailam or atleast till Mananur as the road will be devoid of traffic.

Cheers

Do we really wish to do Warangal highway? It is a nightmare with all the road-widening works in progress. One struggles to average 40 on it.

I had been to Warangal twice in the recent past and agree with Lucifer and MileCruncher about the road. And the rains must have worsened the road.

Given folks' updates on Warangal road, how about Nagarjunasagar - it had polled second highest votes in the last poll. Also, at this time of the year, NS may be a good option.

As for the date, would love to join on Aug 7. Aug 21 is not possible for me.

Srisailam is scheduled for an overnighter as discussed earlier. Sure to happen in Sep.

Well, been on that road myself recently and i am not too worried about the condition as its ok not that bad. For such good food, I am dont mind such minor problematic conditions. Only thing that on a sunday while coming back the traffic jam at Uppal is something that is certainly avoidable.

I am ok for Nsagar too and we can dig into the awesome fish fry at Vijay Vihar.

Will creat a poll for the next drive meet. Do cast in your votes

P.S: I am getting a takeaway from City Grand today evening. So I dont mind NOT going to Warangal

There is better fish fry and fish curry available at the restaurant in Etipotala Falls. Only, one has to tell them what to prepare by around 11-11:30 am. Everything is then prepared fresh .

Sounds nice. Never knew there is a restuarant at Etipothala Falls. Is it just outside the entrance of EF?

Guys, I added the POLL. Please cast your votes and let's make this drive meet HAPPEN

It is inside the falls compound. It is run by APTDC. The restaurant also caters to the people who stay overnight in the rooms there.

PS: The restaurant is more like a veranda with tables. During the day, there is usually a power cut and the back-up generators are not used. I am fine with that since the weather is going to be lovely in August. Others, please take note.
PPS: If the water levels are not high, we will be allowed to go down to the base of the falls .

re: Hyderabad Meet Thread 2011 Meets_EDIT : Dec 22_Hadippa Lunch Meet

We had a lousy experience with the APTDC restaurant at Etipothala Falls. We drove down from Srisailam in Dec, 2007 and reached that place by noon. It took them 2.5 hours to prepare food for us, and it was not that great.

Perhaps that was an exception.
