Did you know that Biryani which is most famous in Hyderabad actually originated in Persia. And the reason it became famous in Hyderabad in the first place is because the cultural makeup of that city is a derivative of the muslims that have resided there for ages since the Mughal era.
Did you also know that it is actually the national food for Pakistan and you can actually find the best of it on the street as street food ??
Well that was just some trivia on biryani but here we bring you some places where you can find the best Biryani in Gurgaon.
Midnight Sutra
Biryani at regular hours you’ll find anywhere. But what about the craving you get when you want to have Biryani at the midnight hour. Well Midnight Sutra is your saviour. Amazing Biryani packed with the traditional green mint sauce and ring onions, is the best party you can have for your self.

Andhra Biryani House
Located at Sapphire Mall on the Sohna Road is one of the best destinations for Biryani. The place has come up a few months ago and has become a favourite for authentic Biryani lovers. The Biryani is served in beautiful clay pots along with Mirchi ka Saalan and raita along with onions and lemon.Though they might have to work on the seating as large groups cannot be accommodated. But that does not completely stop them from making some regular clientele.

The Daily Curry
The place specialises in North Indian and Mughlai food and does not offer dine in. But does that really dampen the spirits of foodies anyway? You can order delicious food from them 11 am to 11 pm and be rest assured that the food is fresh and the quality is dependable. The Mutton Biryani is a huge hit with the clients and is served piping hot. The taste is immaculate and leaves you wanting for more. You might want to consider ordering other dishes as well which for sure would turn out as delicious.

Kitchen of Awadh
This is upcoming favourite for the Awadhi flavour. We did an elaborate review of the restaurant here: http://blog.whatsupgurgaon.in/restaurant-review-kitchen-of-awadh-supermart-gurgaon/ a few months ago. An absolute delight that this place is, it basically is a quite popular for its kebabs and biryanis. The place has ample seating with a great decor and amazingly courteous service. The Mutton biryani is a again a must try for sure. For that great Awadhi flavour, this place seemingly is just the best.

Kolkata Biryani House
Unlike the traditional Biryani, the taste of biryani here is a bit different with the bengali spices. The Bengali flavours are pretty spicy with this biryani and definitely a twist from the regular Mughlai that most people prefer. Going by its name KBH serves you the authentic Kolkatan taste which may necessarily not be to the liking of everyone, but hey, what’s life without a bit of alternate choices!

Mumbaikar’s Biryani
And you thought Biryani and Mumbai don’t work together and you would be surprised how wrong you are. The place smells of the authentic spices and offers some great melt-in-your-mouth Biryanis. Not only is the quality amazing but the quantity is wholesome as well. With an added dash of fried onions the biryanis climb a notch higher. So don’t go by the name only, just jump right in and you won’t be disappointed.

The Hyderabadi Dum Biryani is definitely the one you have been hunting for long. Well, your search ends here and how. You would be surprised the closeness to authenticity here.

Rumi’s Kitchen
Another order and takeaway place, this place previously opened with a bang and then almost dies on it reputation. Lately, we hear that the place resurfaced with a fresh new menu, some immaculate service and great customer care. With its Lucknowi cuisine leading from the front it is the biryani that we want to try out from the rest. The CHicken Biryani is one of the best options, that has some juicy chicken in its core. No idea if its dum biryani or fried, but the after taste in your mouth says a lot about its supremem preparation.

Biryani Paradise
Follow the name and the whiff of those spices and you would be lead to Biryani Paradise. Surely a paradise for Hyderabadi and Andhra Biryani. The most authentic and close to original biryani would be found here. The only catch is that they do not serve Non Vegetarian food so if you are a hard core non vegetarian , then you would be disappointed. But if you are okay trying out their veg fare then I suggest you do, because you would not be completely disappointed. For an exemplery flavour and unmatched aroma, do visit this place.

Purani Dilli’s Al Karam Kebab House
The house for brilliant North Indian flavours, this place can easily house a gathering of 20-25 people. The services are good and the food is awesome. Lately the quality of the food here has gone a notch higher than it was before, so definitely you can try it if you are craving for some North Indian tasting biryani. The Chicken and Mutton biryani both spell taste and are gastronomically sound. Though the quantity of the sere is not too much, but that does not take away from the aroma or the flavour. Do visit.

For every Mughlai menu restaurant, Biryani is a must, but if you get it as a standalone item in a roadside dhaba also, then surely it is one of the safest options. Though you can go miserably wrong with the taste, there are seldom restaurants that screw them up. For a foodie, Biryani surely is a measure of a good restaurant or a food place.
Hope the list here has been helpful for you to choose from. Do let us know if you get hold of some more amazing biryanis elsewhere and we shall include them here as well!
