Shreshtha Sharma: I have always been a lover of Mughal Cuisine. Biryani and Kebabs top the list, whenever it comes for me to choose. Very recently, I was planning for a house party with my friends and the food was decided of Mughal Cuisine. Summers are already knocking on the doors, I was feeling way too lethargic to cook something. I decided to order food from none other than Chaccha Jaan Biryani & Kebab Wale ( Chaccha Jaan – Biryani, Kebabs & Curries ) . This brand was recently launched in 2019. The speciality of their brand is that they maintain the authentic Delhi style Biryani, they also have own Fusion style Biryani and they also offer authentic Kolkata style Biryani separated from their experiments. Their Biryani preparations consists spices made of original rose petals, original kewra jal, no articificial flavours and no dalda. They use their own home made spices for Biryani & Kebabs. Their Galouti spices are brought from Lucknow. The meat used in their preparations are 100% halal which is very well cooked and taste very soft and succulent. Chachha Jaan Biryani & Kebab Wale are available for takeaway & delivery options. They have 3 outlets in total namely at Picnic Garden and Kestopur, available on Zomato & Swiggy for placing orders. They are also coming up at Hatibagan very soon. For the house party, I had ordered below items from Picnic Garden :
