Spice level warning — Biryani is not what I expected

I underestimated Biryani. The rich with slow-cooked depth description didn't prepare me for the reality. ghee brings a heat or pungency that builds steadily rather than hitting upfront. By halfway through I was sweating but couldn't stop eating.

nihari was originally eaten after the fajr morning prayer as a slow-cooked overnight stew. The a Lahore dhaba setting means locals eat this with ease while visitors like me reach for water. zeera cumin water cut through it better than water would have. Don't order the mild version out of caution — the full version is the point. I'd go back. Three stars only because I wasn't warned.
