It was Biryani Time in Delhi. What place better than Tunday- a legend back in Lucknow to draw a comparison between the two styles of Biryani - Hyderabad and Lucknow.
I paid 150 for a plate of Biryani which consisted of 2 chicken pieces. The portion size was just a fraction of what you would get back in Hyderabad and the 2 pieces of chicken were an insult to what I am used to having in Hyderabad.
Taste:
Alright, I expected it to be good but it was no where close. In fact it was miles away. There was a lot of orange colour in it which was part saffron, part colour. I could see no masala in the rice and neither could I taste the spices that are predominant in Hyderabadi Biryani. A simple dish I tasted for a Biryani.
Verdict.
Stay away. This Biryani is not for a Hyderabadi in Delhi.
