Hyderabad Biriyani in Chennai

September 5, 2007 at 12:03 pm (Food & Beverage)

For sometime, i have been thinking about writing about the so called “Hyderabad Biriyani” available in Chennai.

It’s been two years since I came from Hyderabad, till now I haven’t come across a single hotel serving the authentic Hyderabad Biriyani including the one near Ethiraj College. These days lot of hotels in Chennai flash attractive signboards saying HYDERABAD BIRIYANI. To my disappointment, i never had Hyderabadi biriyani nor Chennai Biriyani in these hotes. Even some Andhra Hotels serving Hyderabad Biriyani in Chennai are huge disappointment. Recently a new Hotel near T. Nagar bus stand was opened exclusively for Hyderabad Biryani, and my goodness, it’s horrible.

So my search for Hyderabadi biriyani continues in Chennai. The following is what I am searching for…

Yummy, isn't it

If you guys find this in any restaurant serving in Chennai, do informe me.
