Dum Pukht
North Indian
The slow-roasted biryani arrives sealed inside a dough-lidded pot, which the server cracks tableside in a cloud of steam, a ritual that's been the same since before most restaurants you love were born. Dum Pukht is a grand, formal Indian dining room inside the ITC Maurya, all deep purples, gilded trim, and a live piano, serving the ancient dum-cooking tradition of the Awadhi royal kitchens. Dress accordingly and settle in.

“The biryani is the must-try dish at Dum Pukht, which specialises in the ancient art of dum cooking, where food is slow-roasted in its own juices in a dough-sealed pot called a handi.”
