IT's Not Just Tea,
Evolution Of
Hyderabad and its Chai
The oh-so happening! cafe culture has been introduced by a group of Zoroastrian Irani Immigrants, who entered the Princely state of Hyderabad looking for better economic prospects. The divine taste of this beverage with many health benefits instantly won the hearts of Hyderabadis. Soon, every corner, where Irani Chai is served has been evolved into institutions and became popularly known as Irani Cafes, since kick-starting the cafe culture in the city. Though the taste and aroma of Chai are appetizing, the Irani Cafes around the city couldn't attract people from the working-class, mainly women from every sector. Rugged neighborhoods, unhygienic conditions formed the major reasons for the same. And this has been the major induction behind the establishment of Hyderabadi Chai Adda. Brewing our very own 'Traditional Chai' in healthy and hygienic conditions, ensuring peaceful surroundings, welcomes everyone, and ensures an unblemished experience.
