History & Tradition
The Chicken Biryani & Chai Lunchbox at BKC draws inspiration from the rich culinary traditions of Awadh, where biryani was perfected in royal kitchens as a fragrant, layered rice and meat delicacy. Traditionally, biryani was slow-cooked over gentle heat to allow spices, herbs, and marinated chicken to meld into a harmonious, aromatic dish, while chai has long been a beloved companion — warming, spiced, and comforting. The lunchbox concept brings this heritage to the modern table, making the classic combination portable without compromising on authenticity, flavor, or the soul of Lucknawi cuisine.
