Biryani exceeded every expectation

I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Biryani made with real commitment to yogurt marinade and technique. The warmly spiced and aromatic result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before.

Indian cuisine varies enormously by state, religion, and climate. The a north Indian restaurant abroad was exactly right for this kind of eating. chai tea was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
