Biryani at CHASKA is built the same way across both branches — long-grain rice layered with marinated meat (or vegetables) and finished dum-style, so every plate comes out fully cooked through rather than just tossed together. Here's what's on the menu.
The Biryani Lineup
- Chicken Biryani with Gravy — ₹349. Long-grain rice layered with chicken, served with a side gravy.
- Mutton Biryani with Gravy — ₹349.
- Egg Biryani — ₹289.
- Veg Biryani / Pulao — ₹269, for a fully vegetarian order.
All four are on the Biryani, Rice & Sides section of the full menu, and all serve roughly 2 people per plate.
Dum-Style Cooking, Explained
"Dum" cooking means sealing the pot — traditionally with a dough seal on the lid — so the rice and meat finish cooking together in trapped steam rather than being boiled and mixed afterward. It's slower than making rice and curry separately, but it's what gives layered biryani its texture: rice that's fully cooked without turning mushy, and meat that's absorbed the same spices as the rice around it.
Solo Meal or Party Order — the Biryani Feast Combo
For a quicker, complete meal, the Biryani Feast combo (from ₹499, C9) pairs a Chicken or Mutton Biryani with Gravy, mix raita, papad and a soft drink — built for 1–2 people who want a full meal without ordering separately.
NIT-5 or Omaxe World Street — Same Biryani, Two Locations
Both NIT-5 and Omaxe World Street run an identical menu and identical pricing, so there's no need to pick a branch based on the food — just whichever is closer to you. Not sure which branch that is? See our guide to finding your nearest CHASKA.
Dine-In, Takeaway, Delivery or Catering Trays
Biryani is available for dine-in, takeaway and delivery at both branches, and it's also one of the most-ordered items on CHASKA's outdoor catering menu for weddings and corporate events, where it's served in bulk trays.
