ITC Hotels, renowned for its commitment to culinary excellence, introduces the 10th outpost of the iconic Peshawri at ITC Kohenur, Hyderabad. Known for its rich North-West Frontier cuisine, Peshawri maintains its legacy of delivering an authentic and consistent dining experience.
Jitendra Taak, General Manager of ITC Kohenur, expresses excitement saying, “We are thrilled to bring Peshawri’s signature experience to Hyderabad. Known for their appreciation of good food, I am sure diners and food connoisseurs of this city will enjoy Peshawri. Every aspect has been designed to provide an unforgettable dining experience.” The restaurant, with a seating capacity of 84 covers, features the signature rugged interiors and earthy colors, creating an immersive ambiance resonating with the North-West Frontier flavors.
The culinary journey at Peshawri is a celebration of rich traditions, where master chefs showcase their expertise in the art of tandoor cooking. The menu boasts tantalizing tikkas and kebabs, with standout dishes such as Dal Bukhara, Sikandari Raan, and Kadak Seekh. The renowned Dal Bukhara, slow-cooked for 18 hours over a coal fire, stands as a global favorite. The Sikandari Raan, a tender leg of lamb braised in spices and finished in the tandoor, and the flavorful Kadak Seekh, featuring chargrilled chicken minced rolls, add to the diverse and robust flavors offered.
Guests are invited to indulge in the tactile experience of eating with their hands, complemented by charming interiors adorned with copper and earthen tableware. Shivneet Pohoja, Executive Chef at ITC Kohenur, said “ITC Kohenur’s cuisine experience at Peshawri is a celebration of the rich North West Frontier food traditions. Each dish is a masterpiece, carefully crafted in the tandoor to preserve authenticity and robust flavours, inviting guests to savour the true essence of this culinary heritage.”
To enhance the dining experience, Peshawri introduces an exclusive cocktail menu named Tamba. This unique selection of signature cocktails is served in rustic copperware, thoughtfully designed to complement the distinct culinary flavors of Peshawri.
As the legendary Peshawri extends its footprint, ITC Kohenur ensures that every aspect of the dining experience reflects the brand's commitment to exceptional gastronomy, rooted in tradition and celebrated globally. The opening of Peshawri at ITC Kohenur marks another milestone in the brand's dedication to setting new benchmarks in hospitality and expanding its culinary footprint across the country.

McDonald’s has bounced back to growth, reporting a 3.8% rise in global same-store sales for the second quarter of 2025, driven by smart value-driven offerings and creative pop culture collaborations. The uptick marks a positive shift for the brand after four quarters of sluggish or declining growth, helped along by consumer-focused strategies aimed at easing economic concerns.
International markets led the charge, while sales in the US rose by 2.5%, reversing the downward trend seen in previous quarters. The brand’s strong quarter was supported by promotions tied to pop culture, such as limited-time offers linked to the Minecraft movie and Squishmallows collectibles, which drew attention from younger audiences and families alike.
Alongside the promotions, the launch of a $5 meal bundle and the introduction of new chicken items helped McDonald’s connect with budget-conscious customers seeking both value and variety. These strategies appear to have paid off, positioning McDonald’s for continued momentum.
“The overall second-quarter results show that McDonald's strategy is working and could lead to sustained same-store sales outperformance compared to the rest of the industry,” noted Jon Tower, analyst at Citi.
The rebound in the US is particularly notable, especially when compared to competitors like Chipotle Mexican Grill and Pizza Hut, which continue to face challenges in communicating value to consumers. McDonald’s blend of affordability and fun has given it a clear edge, demonstrating how well-timed promotions and accessible pricing can win over today’s cautious diners.
