Terrāi, a new dining establishment in Telangana, aims to highlight the region's rich culinary traditions and cultural legacy. Founded by Rohit Kasuganti and Anisha Deevakonda, Terrāi draws inspiration from Telangana's diverse historical influences, including the opulent Nizam culture.
The restaurant, spanning 12,000 sq ft and accommodating 250 guests, features four uniquely designed dining halls that reflect local craftsmanship, with decor elements like terracotta walls and Dokra art.
Speaking at the launch, Rohit Kasuganti, Founder and CEO, TSK Food Works, said, “Telangana food for the longest, has been overshadowed by the popularity of its neighbouring cousin. Taking immense pride in our roots, our thought and vision behind Terrāi is to simply showcase the tradition and history behind the food from our State, designed for the modern diner. We want Terrāi to lead a revolution, of sorts, and to propagate Telangana cuisine to the World and enlighten our colleagues and guests to the rich legacy that it represents.”
The menu includes traditional dishes such as Karim Nagar Fried Chicken Wings and Terai Mutton Curry, each representing the rich culinary heritage of Telangana.
“Terrāi is a creative canvas where we weave the rich cultural and artistic elements of Telangana into every detail. From collaborating with local artisans on the stunning Dokra art to sourcing textiles for our Ikat-inspired decor, every partnership reflects the soul of Telangana, bringing its stories to life. Our mission is to ensure that every guest experiences the essence of our heritage through innovative and traditional cuisine”, added Anisha Deevakonda, Creative Head and Partner, Terrāi.
Terrāi positions itself not just as a restaurant but as a cultural sanctuary where the stories and traditions of Telangana are celebrated through food, inviting diners to connect with the region's history and flavours.
