The dish that reigns supreme is the biryani, a blend of rice, meat, and spices, steeped in age-old traditions and prepared with locally sourced ingredients.”
Paragon came into being in 1939 and became renowned for its ambience and atmosphere and of course its dishes. Incidentally, the outlet is famous for showcasing local produce and employing traditional cooking methods, thereby reflecting the culinary expertise and flavour of the place.
Following Paragon is Lucknow’s Tunday Kababi which is well-known among food lovers for its Mughlai cuisine. As per Taste Atlas this outlet’s “Star offering, the galouti kebab, is a culinary masterpiece featuring finely minced meat tenderized with raw papaya and an assortment of spices.
