Mohd Syawan is the grandson of the founder of the legendary Islamic Restaurant at North Bridge Road. He worked for the family, then opened here on his own in 2017, using the "same recipe", he says. His briyani is supremely fluffy, loose and not oily at all. The spice masala paste base is not overbearing and when you mix it with the dalcha and his curries, it becomes a statement itself. The mutton is fork-light soft and peels off with nary an effort, and he uses a combi oven to attain the texture yet leaves the moisture intact. His achar is unique, made with hawthorn (canned) and it's a perfect match with the briyani on that platter. He also offers chicken and fish versions. You can see his pride – he still uses heavy, white ceramic plates for your order. He sells out most days by 2.30 or 3pm and it's good to go early for it.
