Tiffin Special Biryani
Item Purchased: Tiffin Special Biryani
Location Purchased: Tiffin / 2536 W Devon / Chicago, IL
Price: $13.95 + tax
Review: I just can't help it. Whenever I go to a restaurant that I know is highly reputed and serves lamb, I have to have it. The trouble is when I see that they also have seafood dishes. It is so seldom that a restaurant not specializing in seafood serves theirs tastefully and fresh. So, you can imagine the difficulty I had making up my mind while sitting inside of Tiffin, looking through their menu.
Then, like a voice from the sky, the menu spoke to me. It said, "Kevin, I see your conflict and feel your pain, so I will grant you three dishes. Three dishes in one! No longer will you have to torment yourself over which delicacy to masticate. Simply point to me when the waiter comes by and your troubles will be over."
Well, far be it from me to disagree with a voice from a menu. I mean, look at Joseph Smith Jr. and the golden plates! He founded a religion. I may be next!
Thus, I ordered the Tiffin Special Biryani and was fulfilled.
Soft basmati rice flavored with saffron and several other spices to set the sinuses agape. The best part, however, was the inclusion of not one, not two, but three different meats for my canines to rip and rend. First, the chicken came in generous cubes and chunks, nearly double the size of most stir-fry chicken you get around Chicago. Next came the delicious lamb meat, spiced with its very own flavor. Again, the pieces of meat were generous. Finally, nothing could have prepared me for what I uncovered in the mountain of rice next. Several of the largest de-tailed shrimp I have ever seen outside of a "seafood" restaurant. Split down the middle without any remnant of shrimp-doo, these shrimp were probably the best I have had outside of Portland Maine.
Go now, my fellow diners, and have a night on the town, a few glasses of wine and a delicious meal at one of Chicago's best Indian restaurants! With this cross-section of tastes, I feel confident that I could order anything from the Chicken, Lamb or Seafood menus here and be more than adequately pleased with what I receive.
