WAKAD FOOD GUIDE
3 GOOD HOME-DELIVERY BIRYANIS IN WAKAD PUNE
Value-For-Money “Eating In”
By
VIKRAM KARVE
When I lived in happening places like South
Mumbai and New Delhi – we used to “eat
out”.
But after relocating to Wakad (in the suburbs
of Pune) – we “eat in”.
Sadly – in Wakad – there are very few decent
affordable ‘value-for-money’ restaurants where you can “eat out”.
So if you are a foodie – and you happen to
live in Wakad – then – whenever you feel hungry – the best thing to do is to
pick up your mobile phone and order your food “home delivery” and “eat in” –
yes – it is best to eat outside food in the comfort of your home.
When I lived in Mumbai from 2000 – 2006 (the
best 6 years of my life) – I used to go on super-long “food walks” every
evening (and on Sunday Mornings).
I started blogging about my foodie adventures
in Mumbai – and some of these “foodie” blog posts were compiled in a book APPETITE FOR A STROLL (my first book which
made me a “published author”).
And for the benefit of fellow foodies in
Mumbai – on my blog – I posted “A Trencherman’s ‘Value-for-Money’ Mumbai Good
Food Guide” (yes – as far as food is considered – I am a simple earthy down-to-earth
‘trencherman’ and not a high-falutin ‘connoisseur’ of ‘fine dining’ food).
This “food guide” was more of a “laundry list”
of my favourite eateries – I had walked there – and I had eaten there.

But remember to come back here for my 3 favourite
biryanis in Wakad – or maybe it is best for you to read my Trencherman’s ‘Mumbai
Food Guide’ later.
Now – coming back to the ‘back of beyond’
Wakad – I have been going on my “food-walks” here too – but mainly to pick up
menu cards – since most of the places open later in the evening.
I was tempted to post a similar Trencherman’s
“Laundry List” for Wakad – but I desisted from doing so for reasons which are
obvious if you read my long-winded incoherent Mumbai Food Guide.
Nowadays – readers have very small spans of
attention – and are looking for specific information.
So – I will keep posting “cuisine wise” details
of my favourite ‘home-delivery’ foodie places in Wakad – and since taste is a
subjective aspect – I will refrain from ‘grading’ or giving “stars”.
Today – let me tell you about my 3 favourite
home-delivery Chicken Biryanis in Wakad (phone/mobile numbers in brackets).
Why Chicken Biryani?
Well – ever since I have come to Pune – I avoid
Mutton Biryani – because – in general – the quality of mutton in Pune is not
that consistent – so I have Mutton Biryani only in certain select places like
Dorabjee, Blue Nile, Rashid Khan etc
3 GOOD HOME-DELIVERY BIRYANIS IN WAKAD PUNE
1. Dum
Dumaadum (8087000274/8087000275)
I like their signature “Chicken Matka Dum Biryani”
which is cooked in a clay pot and delivered sealed in the clay pot. The mildly
spiced ‘Chicken Awadhi Dum Biryani’ is also delicious.
2. Desi
Chulha (7030446969/7030666969)
Their ‘chulha cooked’ Chicken Dum Biryani has
a unique mint (pudina) flavor and leaves a wonderful aftertaste on the tongue.
3. Eatsome
(020-22934341/020-60509080/09325545355) www.eatsome.in
Eatsome serves 2 Types of Chicken Biryani –
Chicken Tikka Biryani (which is reminiscent of the one served at Noorani on
Tardeo Road in Mumbai and George on East Street in Pune) and the rather spicy
Chicken Bhuna Biryani.
As I said earlier – I am not going to “judge”
these Biryanis.
But I will tell you ‘How to Judge a Biryani’ –
so whenever you order a Biryani you can ‘evaluate’ it yourself.
Just click the link below and read my foodie
article on HOW TO JUDGE A BIRYANI
PS: Dear Fellow Foodie: This evening – during my “foodwalk” in Wakad – I may have a quick bite at a place called “Singh Saab Da Burger” – and – of course – I will tell you all about it.
Till then – HAPPY EATING
