"The franchise Paradise Biryani Pointe has become an examination of the ways that halal cuisine can span cultures with dishes like za’atar naan, Indian falafel, and paneer tikka kabobs. In 2023, owner Ali Wazne — who is Lebanese American — partnered with Srinath “Ziggy” Kalmadi, who is Indian, to launch Paradise Street Eats, a food truck situated in Greektown. Select from a variety of street snacks, including butter chicken chaat, lamb keema samosas, and a variety of savory dosa rolls. Be sure to wash down your mobile meal with a refreshing mango lassi and keep it moving. Online ordering is available. Best for: The taco menu here is a standout and is served with a choice of crispy or tandoori butter chicken, butter paneer, and other proteins and folded into two pieces of chapati — which makes an excellent alternative to a tortilla." - Serena Maria Daniels
"In polyglot Dearborn, the franchise Paradise Biryani Pointe became an examination of the ways that halal cuisine can span genres, with dishes like za’atar naan, Indian falafel, and paneer tikka kabobs since launching in 2019. In summer 2023, owner Ali Wazne, who is Lebanese American, partnered with Srinath “Ziggy” Kalmadi, who is Indian, to launch Paradise Street Eats, a food truck situated in Greektown. Standouts include butter chicken tacos featuring a creamy butter sauce, chaat veggies, and accented with a mint and tamarind chutney. Each taco is assembled with a piece of chapati — which makes an excellent alternative to a tortilla when the occasion to make a butter chicken taco calls for it." - Serena Maria Daniels
