01 · The Story
Fussy Ccat is what Begumpet's 32-seater cocktail bar Oxymorons becomes before the sun goes down — a daytime lunch concept by founders Honey, Rehan & Rohit Guha.
By day the bookshelf conceals nine handcrafted cat moods, fiery-red bespoke tableware and cat-printed curtains; by 5 PM the tapestries come down, the lighting deepens to Oxymorons red, and the bar returns.
The name comes from a very real regular — a cat that wandered the Country Club compound, finishing a plate one day and ignoring the same dish the next. That fussy palate became the idea: people get bored of repetition. So instead of a fixed cuisine, Fussy Ccat runs through "edits" — limited-period menus built around one obsession. Edit 01 is ramen.

Why CCat with two Cs?
Stylised as Fussy Ccat — a nod to the cat that inspired it. Everyone knew her, nobody owned her.
Nine moods of a cat on the bookshelf, fiery-red tableware, cat-printed curtains and tiny feline props — playful, not kitsch.
Not a fixed menu — limited-period 'edits' centred on one obsession at a time. Edit 01: ramen. Next edit? The cat decides.
Housed in a 130-year heritage building inside Country Club, Begumpet — 32 seats, intimate, hidden behind a bookshelf.
Reservation-only lunch 12 – 3:30 PM as Fussy Ccat; the same room becomes Oxymorons cocktail bar at 5 PM.
02 · The Edit
The opening obsession: Tonkotsu, Shoyu Chicken, Thecha Paitan & Charred Nasu — plus gyoza, cabbage & pork rolls, silken tofu and rotating desserts. 13 verified dishes across 5 chapters.
Until she changes her mind
Current obsession: ramen.
Each ramen has its own broth, toppings and story — Thecha Paitan fuses Maharashtra and Japan; Tonkotsu is pure pork-bone comfort.
