Biryanis are specially cooked with some of the finest ingredients & hand-crushed spices.  And most unique aspect is that the Biryanis are cooked in Claypot and are also delivered the same way.  Keeping the Biryani in the claypot ensures that the flavors stay intact when its delivered home.

Food

I tasted couple of dishes from the elaborate menu.  Panner tikka and two different Veg Biryanis – Hyderabadi Paneer Tikka & Lucknowi Mix Veg.

Claypot Hyderabadi Paneer tikka biryani

This biryani is made using the traditional Mughalai recipe – Kachi Dum Style using fresh paneer, aromatic whole spices and pure basmati rice. When we open the claypot one can only see the fresh cooked Basmati rice.  On digging further, the masala & paneer can be seen.  I enjoyed mixing the spices and savoring the biryani with mix veg raita.

Claypot Lucknowi Mix Veg Biryani

This flavorsome biryani is made in Authentic Nawabi style using fresh vegetables, aromatic spices, pure basmati rice and layered with saffron and Kewra water.  The tasty Lucknow Biryanis had more fragrance compared to Hyderbadi and light on spices.

Kali Mirch Lasooni Paneer Tikka

Soft Paneer that was topped up with some herbed spices and served with mint-chutney & salad.  The taste was perfect and an ideal combination with Biryani.  Its best consumed immediately on receipt because Paneer can tend to get hard.

Final Thoughts

I enjoyed tasting the Biryani from the new eatery in town.  This brand is going to give tough competition to other existing brands like Meghana, Manis & Paradise.  It’s also a good place for Vegetarians as they have more varieties.

The brand has plenty of Cloud Kitchen across the city and one can order your favorite meal using their own portal or the other popular Food Delivery portals.

The cost for meal for 2-4 people will come up to anywhere between INR 700-1000 thats reasonable. I am looking forward to ordering many more times from the outlets closest to my home.

Food for 2 from Potful, will come up to anywhere between INR 500-800 considering one will order for Biryani, Starter & Drink.
