Fine Dining in Hyderabad: Best Romantic Dinners for Two
Hyderabad's fine dining sits mainly in the hotels of Banjara Hills, Jubilee Hills, Gachibowli and HITEC City. The city is particularly strong on outdoor dinners: poolside, garden and lake-view setups that run most of the year, since the weather is kinder than in Delhi.
