Our tryst with Pracheen was helmed by Chef Brajesh Ghansiyal who handpicked some of the most unique delicacies from across India. Right from Awadhi Nihari, Chapli Kebab to Hyderabadi Murgh and Rajasthani Laal Maas each delicacy was a revelation of the culture and tradition of the respective state. Be it the layers of distinct flavours of dum biryani or the aromatic Hyderabadi flavours in dum ka murgh, we couldn’t obviously stop at one bite.

While the succulent chapli kebabs had our heart, mouth-watering paneer khurchan was a burst of flavours we couldn’t get over. The utterly buttertly dal makhani was also quite a heavenly affair. All this was a wholesome affair when served with a range of breads and tantalizing chutneys.

Pracheen not only stands out for the authentic flavours of ancient India but also for the ancient packaging which comes in different small ceramic jars that are sure to impress the antique hoarder in you!
