Daawat-e-Deccan at Sheraton Hyderabad | Royal Nizami Food Festival

A Royal Invitation to the Flavours of the Deccan

Step into the grandeur of Hyderabad’s royal kitchens with Daawat-e-Deccan, an exclusive five-day Deccani food festival hosted at Feast, the signature all-day dining restaurant at Sheraton Hyderabad Hotel.

Running from February 18 to 22, 2026, this limited-period culinary popup brings together the heritage, depth, and indulgence of authentic Nizami cuisine—served for both lunch and dinner.


Curated by a Guardian of Nizami Culinary Heritage

At the heart of Daawat-e-Deccan is Chef SK Quadri, whose mastery of Hyderabadi cuisine is rooted in rigorous training under Hamida Begum, one of Hyderabad’s most respected custodians of Nizami food traditions.

Chef Quadri’s journey began at Sheraton Hyderabad itself, where he continues to revive time-honoured Deccani recipes—preserving their soul while refining presentation for today’s discerning diners.


A Menu That Defines Authentic Deccani Cuisine

Daawat-e-Deccan is a celebration of slow cooking, aromatic spices, and royal depth of flavour—hallmarks of Deccan gastronomy once patronised by the Nizams.

Festival Highlights Include:

  • Iconic Hyderabadi Haleem – slow-cooked to velvety perfection

  • Nihari & Korma – rich gravies layered with complex spices

  • Smoky Deccani Kebabs – bold, spice-forward, and indulgent

  • Lukmi – Hyderabad’s beloved savoury pastry

  • Mohabbat ka Sharbat – a refreshing, traditional counterpoint

With Ramzan approaching, the menu holds special significance, echoing dishes traditionally served during iftar in Hyderabadi households.


An Immersive Royal Dining Experience

To elevate the experience beyond the plate, Feast will be transformed with Hyderabadi-inspired décor, evoking the elegance and opulence of the Nizams’ royal dastarkhwan.

This is not just a meal—it’s a cultural immersion into Deccan heritage.
