Charismatic Biryani in Winnipeg

5-star guest reviews on TripAdvisor & Yelp

Our Charismatic Biryani is the dish to order when you want one plate to carry the whole meal. Long-grain basmati is layered with house biryani masala, saffron and whole spices, then slow-steamed with your choice of seasonal vegetables, marinated chicken or bone-in goat. Every order comes with cooling raita on the side.

About Our Charismatic Biryani

Biryani is a celebration dish, and it is the specialty Winnipeg guests come to Charisma Of India to try. Rather than stirring rice into a curry, the rice and the filling are cooked separately and then layered so each grain stays distinct and picks up saffron, cardamom, clove and bay.

You can choose your version. Veg Biryani is built on seasonal vegetables and is a favourite with our large vegetarian following. Chicken Biryani uses halal chicken marinated in yogurt and spices. Goat Biryani — the richest of the three — uses bone-in halal goat slow-cooked until it falls off the bone. All three arrive with raita to cool the spice and are generous enough to share.

“The lunch buffet had a great variety of dishes, all hot and freshly replenished. Butter chicken, goat curry and several vegetarian options were outstanding, and the price was very reasonable for the amount of food.”

“Amazing value for the buffet—so many vegetarian choices and everything full of flavor. Goat vindaloo and palak paneer are standouts, and the mango lassi is a perfect finish.”

“We ordered two vegetarian dishes and one meat dish and all were amazing. The palak paneer was some of the best I’ve ever had, and the service was friendly and attentive throughout the meal.”
