I still remember eating the most delicious Biryani at a Students Biryani Khoka in Bohri Bazar,Karachi.Khoka is like a small cart where Biryani cooked in a huge iron pot or 'degh'is served and people stand or sit around the cart to eat it.It started as a small business which extpanded all over the country and even outside Pakistan.Birayni is a chicken and rice dish with tomatoes,spices and potatoes.It is one of the most popular dishes in Pakistani Cuisine.
When I read about the Biryani Cart in NY near 6th ave and 46th street,I got very excited that my favorite dish Biryani has made its journey to United States and it is sold out of a Biryani Cart.This Biryani Cart was started by a Bangladeshi American. Chicken,Goat and Vegetable Biryani is served here along with yogurt and chutney.Kati Rolls and Tandoori Chicken is also sold at the NY Biryani Cart.It is quite popular around town and was also nominated for the "Vendy Award"!
