Thalappakatti

Dindigul Biryani

The Dindigul biryani specialist that has taken Chennai by storm. Thalappakatti uses seeraga samba rice, a short-grain aromatic variety that absorbs flavour beautifully, combined with small pieces of tender meat and a distinctive spice blend that sets it apart from Hyderabadi or Lucknowi biryani. The biryani here is less oily and more peppery, reflecting its Dindigul origins. With multiple branches across the city, it has become one of Chennai's most popular biryani destinations.
