Best Biriyani in Kochi
Best biriyani in Kochi is a big claim, so here is what stands behind it. Calicut Topform at Vyttila serves the same Calicut style chicken biriyani that Topform has cooked in Kozhikode since 1975, now close to the Vyttila junction.
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.
Best biriyani in Kochi: what to order
Start with the Calicut chicken biriyani. It is the dish most guests come for, and the reason many call us the best biriyani in Kochi for Malabar taste.
Regulars also order Najaf Chicken 65, Ginger Chicken, Butter Chicken and Fish Mango Curry. Chicken Varattiyathu and Fish Mulakittathu are on the menu too.
