Hyderabad, November 2026: Nasi and Mee, the pioneer of Southeast Asian cuisine in India, opens its first restaurant in Hyderabad at Jubilee Hills, marking the brand’s entry into a new city. With this opening, Nasi and Mee now has 11 restaurants across South India.
The Jubilee Hills restaurant takes its cue from the rainforests of Southeast Asia, reimagined through a contemporary lens. Natural tones run throughout, from woven rattan and cane-backed chairs to trailing greenery and low-hanging rattan lights shaped like lotus flowers. At the centre sits a bar clad in fish-scale tiles and white marble, surrounded by Where the Forest Comes Alive, a mural hand-painted by French artist Valentin, aka Valkiri. Its seemingly quiet rainforest is full of food-obsessed residents: an orangutan reaching for noodles, a tiger watching you through binoculars, a hornbill sipping bubble tea and a cockatoo making off with salmon nigiri. Hidden details reveal themselves at every glance, inviting diners to discover something new on each visit.
To celebrate its Hyderabad debut, Nasi and Mee will introduce The Hawker Edit, a limited-time menu inspired by the hawker centres and street stalls of Southeast Asia. Diners can start with the Prawn Omelette, a fluffy, wok-fried hawker favourite, or the Cereal Prawns, a Singapore and Malaysian zi char classic of crisp prawns tossed in buttery, curry-leaf-scented cereal crumbs. For mains, there’s Ayam Penyet, Indonesia’s famous “smashed” fried chicken served with fiery sambal, and the Massaman Curry, a rich, mildly spiced Thai curry.
The Hawker Edit runs alongside Nasi and Mee’s much-loved regular menu, from handcrafted dim sum and sushi rolls to Southeast Asian icons like Singapore Chicken Rice, Nasi Lemak and Char Kway Teow, washed down with the cult-favourite Iced Blended Milo. Every dish is paired with the brand’s house-made sauces, including its signature Sambal and XO Chilli Oil.
“Hyderabad has always been on our wish list. It’s a city that takes its food seriously and loves bold, spicy flavours, which makes it a natural home for Nasi and Mee. We’re thrilled to finally be here, and we’re excited to bring a little taste of Southeast Asia’s streets to Jubilee Hills,” said Dilip Krishnan, Co-founder and CEO, India, Foodsta Kitchens, parent company of Nasi and Mee.
With a capacity of 65 covers, the Jubilee Hills restaurant is set to become a go-to destination for Southeast Asian food in Hyderabad. Whether it’s a street food feast with friends or a quick bowl of laksa, guests can eat their way through Southeast Asia with Nasi and Mee.
