I would like to review the famous biriyani place of kerala the historic Kayees Biriyani located near the durbar hall ground near jos junction ernakulam. As we all know, this place is hyped as the best biriyani place of kochi not only because of its taste but also because of its rich history. However, It is believed that kayikka ( the founder chef of the restaurant as people lovingly call him) serves delicious biriyani mixed with his love which is why this place remains crowded from 12-3 everyday.I would like to review kayees based on three parameters food, ambience and service.
Kayees serves chicken biriyani, its flagship mutton biriyani, chicken fry, vegitable friedrice etc. From various recommendations I have received, I have placed my order for mutton biriyani and chicken fry along with fresh lime soda. It just took 5 mins for the bearer to bring my food. So, it is the time to taste the most heard kerala s best kayees biriyani. The biriyani was served on a half plate and meant to be served into the main plate with a spoon. The biriyani was accompanied by date pickle and salad.The aroma of the best biriyani in kerala made my mouth water. From the first touch on the food with my hand made me realise that there is a lot of ghee involved in the food and that is one of the secret ingrident of kayikka which make the biriyani taste the best.The biriyani was the best blend of the masala and the spices and the mutton was so perfectly cooked and it melted in the mouth.Yes, I would definitely say this is the best biriyani I have ever tasted! The chicken fry also was simply excellent. The secret of this chicken fry which I found out was in the masala and again chicken was so well cooked and was fresh.
The success of a restaurant doesnt alone lie in the tasty food but also on various other factors.One of the important factor is the service.The bearer was very attentive and was very enthusiastic.He served me very well eventhough the restaurant was packed.He ensured I was fully satisfied and gave me a very good smile when I checked out.
Kayees ambience is of a special kind.It doesnt have huge luxury or is not contemporary either.But the place gives you a homely atmosphere where you can eat aweosme biriyani.The wash area requires a bit of maintaince as water was not coming in good pressure. One thing I liked about the wash area was that they have used pulthailam in the drainage and it had spread good fragrance.
In nutshell, I would say Kayees serves kerala s best biriyani supported with excellent service.One area where they can improve would only be on their infrastructure.They can also emphaisise on reducing the waiting time for the newly arrived guests in the lobby to enter the dining area. Anyway for the excellent service and the best biriyani of Kerala I will give a 5 on 5. I would like to eat this biriyani everyday.haha I will definitely come again.
