Hanifa's Briyani Specialist

Posted by CyberTron on Sep 09, 2008 8:51PM
If ya google for briyani at tekka, 2 stalls probably prominently stands out, Yakader and Allauddin. Both are supposedly closed by 7pm and 6pm respectively. However, when I was there, it was already 7+. Probably many might be aware, Tekka moved to a temporary market in May. When I was there, could not find Yakader, and Allauddin though was open, was sort of like closing, or trying to sell finish the remaining briyani or something.

So instead of just settled for Allauddin, I decided just to have my mutton briyani at this stall instead. This stall also have a couple of awards paste outside the stall as well though, but if you try to search for it online, you probably find nothing. hahaahaa.

Anyway, the muttom briyani was $4. The serving of rice was pretty generous, so is the mutton as well. Not sure what rice they used, but the rice was quite nice and soft. Some of those briyani I have eaten, the rice is quite hard which I do not quite like. The rice also have taste of spices as well. Without trying the other 2 famous one here yet, I find this pretty good for $4, and what's best than to finish up with a cup of teh tarik at 80cents at a stall opposite. :)

    I'm a big fan of Allauddin's briyani. Have tried all 3 - fish, chicken & mutton. My favourite is the mutton briyani. They should give more mutton in the briyani though. The portion usually is rather small

    Is diagonally opposite Jogoya. Supposedly the quality is better than Jogoya. Price wise, if we convert currency, then Malaysia is cheaper. If we do not convert currency, then Singapore is cheaper. Generally, a japanese buffet in Siingapore is around SGD30+ range.

    I'm not sure exactly where the original Leong Kee moved to, but I believe the one at Sultan Gate is still there. I also saw one at junction of Jln Besar and Hindoo road. Just at the junction before beancurd city

    CyberTron commented..
    hi! The bak kut teh at this place is Klang style. If you refering to the peppery style Bak Kut Teh you typically find in Singapore, then this is not the place for you. For the peppery style one, the famous ones are probably ones are Balestier Road or the one at Tanjong Pagar complex. For me, I usually just go to Song Fa at Rochor which is decent for me, and more convenient as well.

    I don't remember if i'd ever come across cheap and nice seafood in KL...I suggest you to plan a trip to Sabah, that's really what I call heaven for seafood lovers. ;-)
