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

    Restoran Todak (Orang Asli)

    My last 2 trips there this year was kinda disappointing as well. First time, somewhere near CNY, a lot of seafood was sold out, even the beer! Thought cos we were there late, so the next time we decided to get there earlier, and this time, the crab where sold out! Service was also very slow and not enuff people to serve the customers. Food wise, I think price is still ok, but I think the food is not longer as good as when it was less well known.... planning to try senibong next round...

    Have not been to Jogoya before, but I've been to the Gonbei opposite. Priced similarly to Jogoya if not wrong, and I thought the service and food was pretty good.

    I went with 7 adults and 1 kid, we spent less than $120. I would safely hazard a guess of $18 - $25 per person, depending on how hungry you get. Real value for money for quality food.

    Gonbei Fine Japanese Cuisine
    CyberTron commented..
    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.
