BKC Lamb
About This Dish
Our BKC Lamb combo brings together three beloved elements of North Indian dining: the aromatic indulgence of Lamb Biryani, the smoky satisfaction of a Lamb Seekh Kebab, and the bold comfort of a freshly brewed Kadak Chai. Together, they offer a well-rounded experience — hearty, spiced, and soothing, all at once.
The biryani features fragrant long-grain rice layered with tender, slow-cooked lamb, infused with kesar (saffron) and whole spices. The seekh kebab is made with spiced minced lamb, skewered and grilled to perfection for a smoky finish. And to round it off, the kadak chai — strong, milky, and steeped with spices — cuts through the richness with warmth and nostalgia. Our BKC Lamb combo promises richness, depth, and balance in every bite and sip.
History & Tradition
Lamb holds a special place in Indian cuisine — it’s often associated with celebration, feasts, and the art of slow cooking. Across regions, Lamb is used in stews, curries, kebabs, and rice dishes, thanks to its richness and ability to absorb spices.
Each component of the BKC Lamb platter has a story to tell. Lamb Biryani comes from Mughal kitchens, where it evolved from Persian pilaf into a complex, layered Indian rice dish. Seekh Kebabs trace back to Mughal and Awadhi traditions too, inspired by Turkish and Middle Eastern kebabs. Kadak Chai, though a more everyday ritual than the other two, is just as cultural. The tea comes from India’s long-standing tea tradition and is made stronger and spicier over generations to become the chai we know today. When combined, these three elements reflect the Indian way of dining — not just to fill the stomach, but to nourish the soul.
What Makes it Special
What makes BKC Lamb special is the careful composition of its parts — each dish holding its own yet contributing to a unified, satisfying whole. The biryani provides comfort and complexity, with fluffy rice, rich lamb, and deep layers of flavour. The Seekh Kebab adds texture and contrast — juicy inside, charred outside, and robustly seasoned. And the kadak chai is the perfect finale — grounding, warming, and unmistakably Indian.
It’s a thoughtful curation that mirrors the diverse Indian dining experience — a celebration of flavours, textures, and moods. This dish offers a little bit of everything: feast, fire, and familiarity.

Secrets From The Masala Box – The Potli Masala of BKC, That Whispers Through Every Kebab!
In the royal kitchens of Lucknow, spices weren’t just ingredients — they were poetry, tied with care into soft muslin pouches called potlis. Our signature BKC Potli Masala is a legacy of that era — a blend of over a dozen herbs, roots, and florals, hand-roasted and crushed to perfection. Each potli carries the scent of home, the soul of tradition, the touch of time!
We don’t just season our kebabs — we honour them. From melt-in-mouth Galouti to charcoal-kissed tandoori Kebab, it’s this potli that lends each bite its haunting aroma and depth. Lazzat-e-Taam, they called it — the essence of taste. And at BKC, it’s the quiet secret behind every unforgettable kebab!
