Weekend Biryani

We are on MG Road 3 in Vile Parle East. This is a busy neighborhood and we are right in the middle of it. Weekend Biryani started because we liked cooking. It’s not a huge restaurant. We have a small kitchen area where the big pots are kept. The smell of the rice and spices is always there. We spend a lot of time prepping the meat and cleaning the rice. MG Road can get very crowded, especially in the evenings. We see a lot of people walking by. Some stop in, some don't. We don't have fancy menus or a big staff. It’s just us doing the cooking and serving. We use the same recipes we've always used. The space is a bit small for the number of people who come by sometimes. We try to keep up with the orders. It gets hot in the kitchen, but we are used to it. Vile Parle East is a good place to be. We know the other shop owners around here. We aren't trying to be the biggest place in town. We just want to make enough for the day. We open up and start the fire early. It’s a lot of physical work. Our hands are always busy. It’s just a regular local spot on MG Road. We've been here for years now and the neighbors seem to like what we do. It’s not always easy but it is home for us.
