Ramya Krishna says about the food she loves.As a foodie, I make sure I try out the local cuisine of the places I visit.
However, when it comes to Andhra and Hyderabadi food, I prefer to eat at home. I am fond of all kinds of Andhra pickles, and vulavacharu (made of horsegram). But when I am too hungry, avakai and curd rice are just right for me. I also like the typical South Indian breakfast comprising idli, dosa, upma, uttapam etc.
Though I basically opt for vegetarian cuisines, bommidalu pulusu is one non-veg dish that I can't resist. I can also prepare certain local vegetarian dishes like pachchadi and pappu. It will come as a surprise to many, but I am not too fond of biryani. But I liked the biryani prepared by NTR Jr's mother. Among sweet dishes, I like kubani ka meetha and when it comes to street food, I am tempted by bhelpuri and paanipuri.
Among other Indian foods, I am fond of Gujrati and Rajasthani thali. They offer a great variety of spicy items. I just love them. My advice to people is: Try different kinds of cuisines and enjoy eating.
