The Biryani Cart

The Biryani Cart has won a number of different awards and accolades, including the People’s Choice Award at the Vendy’s. Besides for the biryani that they are so famous for, they also serve up other South Asian specialties like chicken tikka masala, chicken curry, and kati rolls just to name a few.

I had a day off work this week and was running an errand right by the cart, so of course I could not resist finally trying it out. Because I went pretty early (just before 12pm) I managed to actually score a platter and avoid the line. Word to the wise - they usually sell out by 2pm or earlier so make it an early lunch!

The biryani is all that it’s hyped up to be. I got the Spicy Chicken Biryani and it was extremely fresh, authentic, spicy and delicious - laced with tamarind and an array of other spices and topped off with a boiled egg. Amazingly satisfying!! My only complaint was that they could have offered up a bit more chicken! For you vegetarians, they also have a vegetable biryani option as well.
