Buhari Hotel Trivandrum


Buhari is situated at Attakulangara, East Fort, Trivandrum. One of the most boasted hotels in Trivandrum. A synonym for mutton dishes for Trivandrumites. I cant even remember when I started to eat from this hotel. During college days every Sunday, we used to have a "to the beach bike ride" followed by a dinner at Buhari. If somebody in Trivandrum city is getting a midnight craving for food, the first thing popping up will be "Buhari". Anybody who has been part of a gang of friends in Trivandrum will be having their nostalgia associated with Buhari.
But sadly these days, this hotel has become only the shadow of what was it before. Food is not upto the mark, and hygiene to be questioned. My wife is totally reluctant to go there, and she feels totally uncomfortable inside Buhari for some peculiar and unknown reason. I majorly think people are still coming to eat mainly because of the nostalgia factor, and at night this is the only option to eat out in Trivandrum. 
There are some unconventional mutton dishes that we get only here like the bone marrow curry, brain roast, and kidney roast, though we don't eat any of these(But still these dishes got their regular customers, one of them is my very good friend). 
We don't prefer to eat out from here, but there is some thing we really like. They got a sarbath and juice centre by the side, and they have some really exotic fluids out there. They serve milk sarbath, boost or horlicks sarbath and the sensational "kulukku" sarbath. Through out the day we can see a reasonable crowd standing and delivering the awesomeness into their tummy from the juice centre. 
Their tea stall is also very nice, and serves the not so famous "Biriyani tea". This tea got nothing to do with biriyani. A simple explanation should be a hot glass of milk with a thick layer or tea floating over it with sugar sprinkled all over. This is to be tried. 
Hotel not recommended, tea stall and juice centre recommended.
