Must-Try Unique Gowdagere Village SLR BIRYANI, Mutton Sambar Meal At Channarayapatna, Hassan Highway
A farmer by profession, Mr. Rangaswamy opened a small thatched eatery on his property abutting the highway in Gowdagere, near Channarayapatna, 15 years ago to serve tea and snacks to travellers on the Bengaluru Hassan route. As the eatery became popular, his family also introduced their unique village style biryani along with other meaty preparations like the mutton sambar, thale kaalu and chops.
He has since passed on, but his family continues his culinary traditions at SLR Biryani. Notwithstanding the recent construction of a flyover that bypasses this humble home eatery and has impacted business here, it still manages to hold on to its loyal patrons.
The popularity of their wood-fire-cooked biryani is such that it runs out in a few hours each morning, after which it is the mutton dishes served with ragi mudde, plain rice or khushka that occupy centrestage. I dropped in impromptu for lunch one afternoon and was elated to find, through a tremendous stroke of luck, the biryani that was prepared for a special order.
