Persis Biryani & Indian Grill is a treasured destination for the dum biryani lovers. If you are new to the world of dum biryani let me explain to what it is. Dum biryani is made by keeping the cooking material like rice, meat and all the other ingredients like spices, etc. on a very slow flame for about 10-12 hours, in a closed vessel. Hearing about the preparation process, I can only imagine how flavourful and rich in taste the end product would be. You have to go no further, as this restaurant around the corner, offers some really nice dum biryani. The interiors are also pretty looking, so you can aim for a good dining experience.
