Biryani Inc in Bajaj Nagar draws repeated biryani recommendations, including several emphatic favourites. Chicken tikka biryani gets a specific endorsement, and another commenter praises the mutton biryani. One suggests asking about a custom-made order. A commenter who likes it nevertheless prefers House of Dum, so the recommendations do not amount to an uncontested city-wide winner.
