I've been to one of the most beautiful open air restaurants I've ever seen.'Our Place' is located at Charan Pahadi, Road No 10, Banjara Hills, in Hyderabad.
When Mahen and I walked in, it was like walking into a tropical jungle. Most of the restaurant is completely outside and the entire premises is fully covered with greenery.
No matter where you sit, there seems to be a fresh breeze blowing and NO MOSQUITO'S!
The restaurant is filled with local native antiques, bamboo, tropical trees and flowers everywhere, beautiful Indian style wooden pillars, doors and fixtures, natural looking lamps, murals, fountains, lush green plants.
It is also interesting because the main dining area in the middle is on soft green grass that feels really nice on your bare feet. I have no idea how the grass stays so fresh considering that people walk on it every day.
We were there at night, so with the lighting and table arrangement, you don't notice the people around you. The subtle lighting accents and the aesthetic classical Indian music make it almost magical in the evening.
Besides the environment, the food was also superb for a very reasonable price. Be careful though, because they serve a lot of local dishes and they can be spicy. But, that's easy to see on the menu because they have a pepper next to all the hot and spicy dishes.
If ever you are in Hyderabad, I highly recommend it!
