Description

Deccan Spice presents the regional cuisine of Hyderabad, a southern city sometimes known as India’s Silicon Valley. Specific to that style of cooking are several elaborate and beautiful biryanis, including the weekend special of natu kodi biryani, which includes spice-stewed chicken and a boiled egg that has been coated in spices and fried in a masala. Yum! Gongura mutton is another notable concoction, utilizing a leaf that tastes like lemon. Also available are dosas, northern Indian Mughal dishes, tandooris, and a number of novel breads, of which mooli paratha--stuffed with shreds of daikon radish--is the most notable. Plenty of space in the large and somewhat formal dining room, along a stretch of Newark Avenue rapidly becoming Little South India.

    Southern Indian cooking has finally come into its own in the New York area, not just a dish or two on a mainly Mughal menu, or a shop that sells dosas, utthapams, and idlies, but little else. Newark Avenue in Jersey City has become a powerhouse of regional southern Indian cooking, one of its most ardent proponents being Deccan Spice. Encompassing both flesh and vegetable matter, the menu roughly represents the food you might get in a restaurant in Hyderabad, the Silicon Valley of India.... More »
