The story the reviews tell
Reviews confess the guilt and order it again — the crisp-gone-soggy chicken edges in spiced rice are described as the point, not the flaw. Curry leaf and red chilli perfume gets flagged as the aroma that sells the table next to you.
What makes this version distinct
Chicken 65 — Chennai's crimson, curry-leaf-crackled fried chicken — folded through and piled over seeraga samba biryani rice. The fried coating half-soaks into the rice, the curry leaf perfume runs through everything, and two south Indian icons become one plate that traditionalists side-eye and finish completely.
