  Street food in Hyderabad


Marcus Tullius Cicer said 'Cultivation to the mind is as necessary as food to the body'. But is the food we eat cultivating our body?
   
 Street food in Hyderabad is considered its true essence. Though the quality of the food sold in streets is not virtuous yet it is eaten very fondly by all middle and higher class people. Basically when one is bored of home cooked meals, they try the food prepared on carts or the barrows under the dimly lit bulbs. 

The carts are decorated with the big trays arranged line wise containing chopped tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, beetroots, corns etc. The ingredients are kept in a way that any person other than the workers working for their food cabins, would never like to spoil the presentation arranged beautifully. When the meal is fully cooked it tastes so yummy that one cannot resist but eat it. 

  From Hussainabad to Latifabad, from Paraitabad to Phuleli, from Heerabad to Qasimabad. Risala road's Shabeer haleem and biryani which is the most selling biryani in the town, Gadi khatta's Kaloo kay pakore, Saddar's Mr. Vaari chaat house and gol gappay. Gidu Chowk's Breeze fish point which is of course very tasty with lots of spices and is more enjoyable when eaten with hot Chappati. Oh and how can we forget Halwa Puri of Tower Market and Chaye (tea) of Khadra Gali! The local crispy samosas and pattees, chola chaat and biryanis, one kebab and egged burgers with a little buttered breads and sandwiches made of boneless chicken and eggs served with red and white sauces and finely cut potatoes with chaat masala sprinkled over are surely mouthwatering but the after effects of eating these meals are harmful for the health. It certainly causes unbearable diseases like ulcer, increase fats, typhoid, cholera, kidney infections, gastro intestinal and many other diseases because the cooks do not make sure of their cleanliness. When only the names sound terrifying then no wonder the diseases itself would be so much horrible. When public was asked that how often they eat out they say 'we eat out at least 4 times in a month out of which our evening snacks are must almost twice in a week.'

  Majority of the citizens are totally acquainted with the outcomes of consuming street food and the main reason of causing these diseases is the use of cooking oil which is already used since two to three days. It is estimated that about seventy to eighty percent of people in Hyderabad feast upon street food out of which are the bachelors that live far from their families and are dependent on the cheap eatables. The majority of the chefs say that' We try our best to provide food to our customers as hygienic as possible.' The food rich of fats and the food which contains the ample amount of oil is so delightful and scrumptious that people just cannot help avoiding it but eat it. 

   Andy Rooney says 'I don't like food that's too carefully arranged; it makes me think that the chef is spending too much time arranging and not enough time cooking. If I wanted a picture I'd buy a painting'. He says true enough. Presentation in serving does matter but when people are out waiting for the food to be cooked and ingest it hurrily and the smell of cooking eatables makes them more impatient, people do not care about the results that they are going to face after eating. The passersby are attracted by the fragrant and the sounds of pop of the food being friend in the hot oil. The solution to these diseases is that people should start making the same eatables in their homes which are more nutritious and healthy because their recipes are as simple as making solution of water and juice powder.

It is okay to enjoy the street food once in a blue moon because this also counts in perks of life.
