In the heart of Soho’s Wardour Street is a gorgeous Indian Brunch spot with exotic, contemporary dishes and unique Indian pop hart adorning the walls – DUM Biryani is the modern curry house you didn’t know you needed.
With a specific focus on Southern Indian delicacies, Head Chef Dhruv Mittal nods to the birthplace of the biryani by cooking it in a classical Hyderabad style; ‘DUM’ refers to the cooking method where meat and veg are layered with rice and steamed together ‘til cooked to perfection. All biryanis come with beetroot raita, Padron pepper in a peanut and sesame seed curry, house pickle and popads, with gluten -free options available.
Some lighter Sunday Brunch options include shredded lamb with masala quail eggs, a stuffed banana chilli with potato, paneer and fried puffed rice and even a Portuguese-inspired chorizo and ginger brioche bun.
Make yours a bottomless treat for just £15 per person and enjoy 2 hours of unlimited Hyderabadi Rum Punch made with Old Monk, mango and pineapple juice and a splash of grenadine.
Head through a stunning palatial archway to get a more intimate candlelit spot in the corner, or opt for the bustling, buzzy central dining room where you’ll be rubbing shoulders with happy punters and warm, welcoming staff.
