Just an extra information- The biriyani from SS biriyani is not the only tamil biriyani. It's one of the many. The SS biriyani is a Chennai style biriyani made with Basmati rice. In the south,(Madurai. Where I'm originally from) biriyani is made from a rice called 'Seeraga Samba' in which the size of the rice is smaller and its packed with flavours. There are also other varieties of biriyani available around Tamilnadu. You should definitely visit Tamilnadu(especially Madurai the food capital) once!!

Usually, when they have some GLAM-Expensive dish, like a super expensive pizza or whatever... there are really expensive ingredients added (like caviar or truffle..). Nothing "extras" on this dish, the food itself stands on its own... looking Fabulously delicious. Slapping on the gold sheets didn't take it to the next level for me. I guess, I was expecting some kind of OH-LA-LA art with the gold. Food that is made 5star level should not apologize for their prices when they are truly worth it. Cheers again!!
