Dining

A stay at Sterling Palavelli Godavari is incomplete without the mention of Konaseema, cultural and culinary catalyst of life for all those living in the region.

Holding immense significance on the people’s dialect and the art of the region, Konaseema also has a deep impact on the cooking styles and flavours cherished by the locals.  Be it regular dining at home or be it special celebrations; Dibba Roti with Cheruku Rasam, Pottukallu, Pesarattu or Masala Gari are a flavorful wake up to the mornings.

Highly popular, exotic river fish like the ‘Pulasa’ (reputed to be the costliest fish in India) is a delicacy for special events, while Pethala Koora and Royyala Iguru are daily favourites of the region. Savour the signature dishes of Sterling Palavelli Godavari like Mixed Rajula Pulao, Vegetarian Liver Curry, Pandugapa Vepudu Chepala koora, Bochu Pulusu and more.

For the traveller with a penchant for sweets, Godavari’s cultivation of Sugarcane is well-known across India. Not surprisingly, this has resulted in a range of sweet dishes like Bobatulu, Kaja, Palakova, Mamidi Tandra and unique Pootharekulu – a paper thin crepes made of jaggery and rice which is not just a local favourite, but indeed a national phenomenon.
