A soft, slightly salty-sweet shortbread biscuit named after Nizam Osman Ali Khan, made with butter, milk, and cardamom. Dunked in Irani chai, the combination is Hyderabad's most iconic food moment -- and Nimrah Café is the cafe that gifted this biscuit to the city in the first place.
Near Charminar, this is where to get it fresh from the oven, ideally paired with a glass of Irani chai on the same visit.
Best for a packaged version to bring home, alongside other traditional Hyderabadi baked goods. Café Nilofer on Abid Road is another reliable source if you want it fresh elsewhere in the city.
