So... everyone kept saying, "You HAVE to try Maman Biryani Stall in Erode!"
Naturally, we fell for it. 😅
While we were in Erode, we headed to Maman Biryani Stall on Perundurai Road, Thindal, expecting something legendary.
The place itself? Beautiful traditional Kongu-style setup. Nice ambience, clean, and definitely gives you confidence before the food even arrives.
We started with the Kongu Style Biryani. It was... decent. Good Kongu flavours, cooked well, but nothing that made me stop eating and question my life choices.
Then came the meals.
You get two options:
🍛 Normal Non-Veg Meals
🍗 Special Non-Veg Meals
The Special version simply adds two dry meat dishes depending on whether you choose chicken or mutton.
I went with the Normal Meals, and ordered Mutton Kothu Kari and Pichu Potta Naatukoli separately.
Now here's where things got interesting...
The Chicken Kulambu was good.
But the real hero of the table was the Karuvaatu Kulambu. The nethili karuvaadu with those soft brinjals... now THAT deserved the attention. Easily the best part of the meal.
The Mutton Kothu Kari?
Average.
Pichu Potta Naatukoli?
Also average.
I've honestly had much better versions elsewhere.
Final Verdict
This wasn't a bad meal.
But considering the crowd, the hype, and all the recommendations...
I kept asking myself,
"Is this what everyone is waiting in line for?" 🤔
Good place.
Good ambience.
Decent food.
But if you're expecting a meal that'll make you drive back to Erode just for another plate...
...you might leave wondering if you missed the famous dish.
