Best Biryani in Kozhikode
Best biryani in Kozhikode is what Topform on Mavoor Road has been serving since 1975. Our Mavoor Road outlet, opposite KSRTC, cooks Calicut style chicken biriyani the way the family kitchen always has, and it stays open from 6 AM to 2 AM.
What makes Calicut biriyani different
Calicut biriyani is not the heavy, red biryani found in many cities. It uses short grain rice, slow cooked chicken, fried onions, ghee and a gentle blend of whole spices.
The result is fragrant, soft and balanced rather than fiery. Each plate is cooked dum style, so the rice absorbs the masala as it steams.
