A spicier version of this Chicken Chilli (with a decidedly South Indian twist of curry leaves and dried Kashmiri chilli), Chicken 65 is a favourite of the locals here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Vijayawada and other parts of Andhra Pradesh, you\u2019ll find Chicken 65 being sold at many local eateries and Chinese food stalls. It\u2019s also a popular starter that is served at drinking joints, from mediocre bars to five-stars. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3.

Mirchi Bajji is a super popular snack in Vijayawada. Locals just can\u2019t get enough of the mouth-watering spiciness of these batter-fried chillies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each morning, you\u2019ll see plenty of food stalls in the market and commercial areas serving this dish for breakfast. It is eaten with a mix of sweet and spicy chutney. Some even have it with their tea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4.

People from South India love their dosas and offer a wide variety. One of the most popular types of dosa in Vijayawada is the rava dosa, which is made from sooji or semolina. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is served with a delicious coconut chutney and sambar. In Vijayawada, you\u2019ll find plenty of South Indian restaurants and food stalls serving excellent, authentic rava dosas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5.

The locals here drink coffee that is quite different from what you get elsewhere. They love what is called the filter coffee, a frothy version of regular coffee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coffee vendors come to markets and popular junctions in the city to sell filter coffee in steel cups. Hotel Anand Bhavan in Balanagar is a popular restaurant in Vijayawada to get excellent filter coffee. You can also buy some coffee powder to take back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6.

In Vijayawada, you\u2019ll come across many paan stores that sell killi in and around the city. Made in a betel leaf using spices, sugar, and other ingredients, killi may be an acquired taste for non-Indian tourists but worth a try. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some varieties are only chewed and not swallowed so spitting it out (if it\u2019s not your cup of tea) won\u2019t seem overly rude. &nbsp;Some restaurants give their patrons a complimentary killi after they serve dinner. However, you are more likely to get good killi at a local paan shop in Vijayawada, than at a restaurant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7.
