#Pune on My Plate: how a medicine man launched city’s iconic biryani spot loved by Dhoni, Dravid, Bollywood celebs Potnis Biryani is so popular that foodies from Mumbai often send people to Pune just to pick up parcels from its central kitchen in Warje. indianexpress.com/article/ci… "“A serving of Potnis’ signature biryani is a masterpiece in itself: layers of the world’s longest grain basmati rice, tender meat, and a perfectly balanced blend of spices. Every masala used is made in-house, and I personally oversee the sourcing of ingredients,” says founder Harshal Potnis, 54, who runs this culinary powerhouse – Potnis Biryani from CKP’s Kitchen – that serves nearly 2,000 people a day.  “We use 25 spices to make our masalas. All our ingredients are handpicked. That is how we maintain the quality,” he says with quiet pride." Source: https://x.com/aparanjape/status/1977066663528087706
