47 years ago, Janab Ahmed Basha Sahib set up a modest eatery in Vaniyambadi, a town in Tirupattur district of Tamil Nadu, famous for its leather industry. The fare at Ahmedia Hotel was mostly Mughlai, inspired by the culinary traditions of erstwhile North Arcot principality. Over decades the kitchens here have perfected time-honored recipes, amongst them a wood-fire-cooked biryani that, unusual for Tamil Nadu, favours the basmati over seeraga samba rice. I discovered Ahmedia three years ago on a #gourmetontheroad tour through the region when I met the founder and his enterprising sons. Janab Ahmed Basha has passed on since, but his sons seem determined to build on their father’s legacy. And have now opened a massive 25,000 sq. ft., 250-seat Ahmedia branch on the Bengaluru Chennai highway with the conveniences required to cater to travellers. I visited them on a recent trip to Chennai, where I tasted most of my favourite dishes here, including the biryani that has put Vaniyambadi on the culinary map.
Hope you enjoy this episode. Take care; stay safe and strong. Happy eating!
