"Banana Leaf in Culver City has 20 different biryanis on their menu, and if you feel the need to try every single one, that’s a journey that’ll result in eating 20 very good biryanis. That said, if you only have time to try one, we recommend the Chicken 65. This spicy, deep-fried chicken dish was first invented at Buhari Hotel in Chennai in 1965 (hence the name), and while it’s a delicious dish on its own, when mixed with herb and spice-filled basmati rice like it is at Banana Leaf, it’s taken to new levels of excellence.  " - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren, garrett snyder
