Biryani is a complete meal, filled with aromas & flavours, a recipe that’s authentic & versatile that caters to delivery very well. It is our belief that ‘Biryani’ will be the biggest Food Services & Delivery category from India. We at Biryani By Kilo (BBK) are committed to becoming the premium Biryani Chain pan India and also to make the Biryani category popular worldwide.
In a fast-paced world, it is important to slow down, sit back, relax and relish some of life’s precious moments. After all, just like food, all good things take time. And we are certain that authentic and fresh biryani is made best when it is slow-cooked to perfection, ek dum fursat se.
Today, BBK delivers a world of biryani, kebabs, korma and much more across 45+ cities in India. Be it the Hyderabadi (Kutchi), the Lucknowi (Pukki) and the Kolkata Biryani, freshness and authenticity is what goes in each of our dishes. Only the best of ingredients, spices handpicked from Kerala, carefully selected meats & vegetables and 2 years naturally aged Daawat Premium Basmati Rice are used for our biryanis. Juicy, flavourful and mouthwatering is what defines our range of kebabs that will just melt in the mouth with every bite.
Nothing is pre-cooked. In fact, we are the only biryani chain that prepares your biryani fresh on order, and deliver it in the handi that it was dum-cooked in. But the BBK experience doesn’t stop here, we send you an earthen Angethi (Aanch) along with your order so that you can light it and give it the aakhri dum of a perfect smoky flavour & aroma of spices.
While our biryani is made fursat se, we keep pace with innovation in the Food Tech & Delivery Space by holistically inculcating a pro-active social cause in our business model. We are conscious about the environment and believe in giving back to the society by ensuring all our earthenware Handis are crafted by hand at Kumhaara Gram on the outskirts of Delhi, thus providing sustainable employment to the artisans.
