Andheri-based delivery kitchen Lucknow Express and master chef Rehman Mujeebur will curate a 17-day Biryani and Kebab Festival at Aureole Hotel, Andheri (East), between April 17 and May 4, 2019. The chef will prepare vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes from Awadh and Hyderabad and preparations dating back to the Mughal era.
The soft-spoken Mujeebur, who is 43 years old, is known for his associations with big names like JW Marriott and Taj Group. He owns Afreen Foods, that runs four eateries – two in Lucknow, and one each in Dubai and Riyadh.
He supervises the kitchen for actor Salman Khan’s birthday bashes, rustling up delicacies for all the invitees. He has also cooked for actor Shilpa Shetty and Punjab chief minister Captain Amarinder Singh.
The menu spread will feature authentic culinary delicacies that revolve around the three most essential elements of an Indian kitchen — the tandoor, the tawa and the charcoal grill. Guests can enjoy a culinary expedition across a variety of regions and styles and their preferences.
The kebabs will include Lamb Galawati Kebab, Chapli Kebab, Shambali Seekh Kebab Murg Boti Kebab, Murg Tikka Mirza Hasnu, Murg Chargah, Dum Mahi Tikka, Paneer Pilimirch Tikka, Rajma Shammi Kebab, Veg Seekh Kebab, Arvi Kebab and Harabhara Shammi.
One can choose from biryanis such as Sufiyani Chicken Biryani, Butter Chicken Biryani, Muradabadi Chicken Biryani, Seekh Kebab Biryani, Prawns Biryani, Hyderabadi Chicken Biryani, Lucknowi Gosht Pulao, Hyderabadi Ghost Biryani, Tarkari Biryani, Batanjan Pulao, Paneer/Veg Biryani, Veg Kofta Biryani and Anda Potato Biryani.
For Mughlai lovers, the options include Mutton Rogan Josh, Dal, Dal Makhani, Dal Fry, Butter Chicken, Lagan Ka Murg, Fish Qoot, Alu Ke Dulme, Laal Chana, Paneer Mumtaz, Kofta Curry and Mirchi Ka Salan.
It will take place all day on all the days of the festival. While the vegetarian dishes will be priced at Rs 550, the non-vegetarian fare will be priced at Rs 650.
With previous hospitality projects including Andamental, Above and Beyond and Hotel Aureole under their belts, Nikhil Samani and Yash Thakkar have teamed up with Mujeebur and his team, who have specially flown to the city of dreams from Lucknow to spread an elaborate array of Awadhi and Mughlai dishes, including lip-smacking variants of kebabs, biryanis, kormas and many other gravies and appetisers to induce the aroma of cardamom.
Speaking on the occasion, Thakkar said, “We wanted to give our patrons an authentic taste of the Mughal era irrespective of their food preferences and the best menu and that is how we got renowned chef Mujeebur on board.”
“We also wanted to make the launch of our new project, Lucknow Express, huge, and decided on hosting a 17-day-long festival, so that everyone can experience the food artistry we are willing to offer," he added.
