When it comes to biryani, we desis are all very particular about it. Those yellow, orange-golden rice, served like royalty can turn around anyone’s mood because that is what biryani does.
We love all the varieties of Biryani like Sindhi, Hyderabadi, Bombay and whatnot
But one thing that we can stand is when people start messing with it to the point where it’s not pure biryani any more.
Like when a Bengali restaurant introduced a biryani pizza
I mean, what even, bro?
And now just when we thought that the world has taken a break from messing with biryani, we found this:
Samjh nahi ayi?
A restaurant in Pune, India is serving “pasta biryani“
*Let that sink in. Phir agay parhna.*
and instead of just plain ol’ raita, there is OREGANO RAITA
Now imagine how it would taste (it actually doesn’t sound like a bad combo, but c’mon yaar, Biryani ka mazaak nahi)? Something like white sauce oregano pasta but with… Biryani.
People are, well obviously, not having it
What the fuck is Pasta Biryani ? What Zaleel people 😑😑

Biryani alone rules the world (and our taste buds) it needs no partner

Seriously, why?
Some things should never be messed with. Like biryani.

Italians and Indians don't mix. Be it politics(congress) or food . Pasta is good biryani is good but biryani-pasta .hey bhagwaan !

But this guy thinks kay khana khana hota hai. Chahay kuch bhi ho
Bhai pasta biryani ya pineapple on pizza. Kuch bhi chalega. Itna bhi entitled nahi hoon ki saamne aaye khane ko na bolun.

Somethings are better left the way they are originally, we say. Like biryani, Sayonee, pizza, Lal Meri Patt, chai etc.
Would you ever try pasta biryani?
