From Slice'd to Akafé

A Fresh Start for a Beloved Eatery

Hyderabad’s food scene just got even more exciting! Our favorite pizza place, Sliced’d Pizzeria, has transformed into something even more amazing. Say hello to Akafé - Bagel House & Pizzeria!

My brother-in-law, Shashank Chintamani, is the creative genius behind this change. He’s taken everything we loved about Sliced’d and made it even better. Now, Akafé isn’t just about pizza (though the pizzas are still incredible). It’s a whole new world of yummy breakfast treats and snacks, with bagels stealing the show alongside our beloved pizzas.

The Journey: From Home Kitchen to Food Heaven

I’ve been lucky enough to see Shashank’s food journey from the very beginning. It all started in his home kitchen, where he’d experiment with new recipes. Those early taste tests were some of the best meals I’ve ever had! Now, those home experiments have bloomed into a bustling eatery that’s the talk of the town.

Mouthwatering Menu Highlights

Sticks and Bruschetta: Snack Heaven

• Olive-Feta Sticks: Imagine biting into a crispy stick filled with tangy olives and creamy feta. It’s a flavor explosion!
• Pesto Jalapeño Sticks: For those who like it spicy, these sticks are a dream come true. The creamy pesto balances the jalapeño kick perfectly.
• Bruschetta Trio:
  • Classic: Sometimes, simple is best. Fresh tomatoes on crispy bread - what’s not to love?
  • Avocado Chili: Creamy avocado with a spicy kick. It’s addictive!
  • Tomato Basil and Feta: This one takes me right back to Shashank’s early experiments. It’s like a little bite of his home kitchen.

Pizzas: The Stars of the Show

• Sweet Pepper Pineapple: I know pineapple on pizza can be controversial, but trust me on this one. The sweetness of the pineapple with the savory peppers is simply magical.
• Cajun Jackfruit: This pizza is a game-changer! Who knew jackfruit could taste this good? The Cajun spices give it an irresistible kick.

Mocktails: Refreshing Delights

Akafé’s mocktails aren’t just drinks; they’re like little vacations in a glass!

• Green Summer: One sip, and you’ll feel like you’re in a cool, refreshing forest.
• Bay of Blue: This drink is as beautiful as it is delicious. The vivid blue color will make you smile before you even taste it.
• Shirley Temple: An old favorite that never goes out of style. It’s sweet, bubbly, and always puts me in a good mood.

Watching Shashank turn his passion for food into Akafé has been incredible. He’s always dreamed of bringing new and exciting flavors to Hyderabad, and now he’s doing just that. Every dish at Akafé has a bit of Shashank’s creativity and love for food in it.
