Our story

చిగురు

  1. The first tender leaf on a branch.
  2. A new beginning, grown from old roots.

Our logo is a tamarind branch putting out a new shoot. Tamarind is the sour backbone of every pulusu; the shoot is this kitchen growing into its next season as Chiguru 2.0.

We cook the food of Telugu homes, from Nellore's chepala pulusu and Bhimavaram's kodi pulao to avakaya with mudda pappu, beside the biryanis Hyderabad loves. Fresh, locally sourced ingredients, cooked to order, served with care.
