Pakistani Dum Biryani Sg, Maxwell Food Centre

Pakistani Dum Biryani Sg, mutton briyani

The eponymous Pakistani Dum Biryani Sg (#01-69 Maxwell Food Centre, 1 Kadayanallur Street) is relatively new at Maxwell Food Centre. The chef's from Pakistan from what I read and their take on the popular spiced rice dish is apparently Pakistani styled - which has some differences from the spices that are used in comparison to the local Indian rendition. Don't know the details though. We've eaten there twice and hadn't any luck with their pulao. This was their mutton briyani which we've had on both occasions.

I wasn't able to discern the subtleties of the differences in spices. I could tell that there's more heat than what I'm used to for biryani. Bottom line was that it was delicious with great flavouring and had sufficient salt to bring forth all those spices infused into the rice. Bone in mutton was scratch off the fork tender and the dal on the side which was made with 4 types of lentils packed a nice bit of heat. Loving those. Also strangely reeled in by that chilled raita they have on the side even though I tasted coriander.
