The Taste of Old Hyderabad
Shaadi-Style Biryani For Your Gatherings
The same degh, the same dum, the same hand-pounded masala that Old Hyderabad has served at its weddings for generations — cooked fresh for your gathering.
Cooked Fresh, Same Day
Nothing pre-cooked, nothing frozen. Your degh goes on the fire the morning of your event.
10 to 200 Members
A ten-member family lunch is cooked with the same care as a two-hundred-guest wedding.
Salan & Raita Included
Every biryani order arrives with Mirchi Ka Salan and Dahi Raita. Never an add-on.
Delivered On Time
Hot, sealed and on your table at the hour you name — we plan backwards from your serving time.
The One Thing We Will Not Cut
Guaranteed mutton quantity,
proportionate to the rice.
Bulk biryani goes wrong in exactly one way. The order grows, the rice grows — and the mutton quietly does not. We weigh the mutton against the rice at a fixed ratio for every degh we seal, whether it is cooking for 10 members or 200.
-
Weighed before the dum
The mutton is put on the scale against the rice going into the same degh. No eyeballing, no “it looks about right”.
-
The ratio never moves with the count
A two-hundred-member order gets the same proportion as a ten-member one. Scale changes the size of the degh, never the recipe.
-
Told to you before you confirm
Your quote states the rice weight and the mutton weight for your count, so the promise is on paper before a rupee changes hands.

Pick the occasion — we will shape the quantity, the packing and the delivery time around it.
What's Included
Biryani is never
served alone.
In Hyderabad a plate of shaadi biryani means three things arriving together. Order either biryani and both accompaniments come with it, portioned for your full count.
-
01
Shaadi Biryani
Aged long-grain basmati, dum-sealed over a slow fire with saffron and fried onion — with the guaranteed mutton quantity weighed against it.
-
02
Mirchi Ka Salan
Green chillies in a peanut, sesame and tamarind gravy. Nutty, tangy, gently hot.
-
03
Dahi Raita
Thick set curd with onion, mint and a whisper of roasted cumin. Cooling, fresh.

Bulk & Catering
From Small Gatherings
to Grand Celebrations
Whether it is 10 members or 200, the recipe does not change and neither does the care. The same degh, the same masala, the same chef standing over the fire — only the size of the pot is different.
About Shaadi Biryanis
Old Hyderabad,
carried to your table.
Shaadi biryani is its own thing. It is not restaurant biryani made bigger. It is cooked in a sealed degh, in quantity, over a slow fire — and that is exactly why it tastes the way it does at a wedding and never quite the same anywhere else.
We cook only that. Fresh on the day, in the quantity you need, with the salan and raita that belong beside it — and we bring it to your gathering hot.
Tradition
Recipes kept as they were, not modernised.
Generous Portions
Shaadi-hall servings. Nobody leaves hungry.
Fresh Preparation
Cooked the same day, never reheated.
Reliable Service
One number, one person, start to finish.
