Pairing Biryani correctly — a note on rooh afza rose syrup drink

Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Biryani. I ordered it with rooh afza rose syrup drink and the warming and hearty elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. Kashmiri chilli in particular became more prominent in a good way.

Pakistani cuisine draws from Mughal court traditions combined with local Punjabi and Sindhi cooking. The a family Eid feast is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Biryani with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
