A word of appreciation from my end to your cameraman and crew who make these videos look amazing , I'm impressed by your videos and presentation.

Sir I have observed in this video n previous video ! After removing the mask Please avoid keeping mask on table ! It is very unsafe 🙏🏻 take care n thank you for your videos

[@josephjacob8322]

Kripal just wanted to add my experience ..I went at an odd time around 3pm afternoon..by that time biryani was over and there was only rice(khuskha) and even the gravy that he serves along with biryani was over..to my utter shock when i asked for gravy he gave me the mutton curry with around 5 to 6 pieces free of cost..Thanks for filming the episode there..he very much deserves...

[@FoodLoversTV]

Wow! That speaks for the reason this establishment has become so popular in such a short time. Thank you for sharing your experience, Joseph.

[@ArunKumar-gn1cq]

Great ownership

[@vineethnandiki8037]

Actually this spot is just close to my place ,sometimes when the biriyani gets over or the gravy ,he gives the kuskha worth 80rs for just 50rs..!

[@ajaykumarreddyk4336]

When I was in abroad, I heard alot about this place especially their Mutton Biryani. Last February when I landed in Bengaluru airport, I asked the cab driver to head to this outlet. Tasted their Mutton biryani. It was yummy, but by the time I reached there it was almost at the finishing stage and all I got was their Biryani as all other dishes are finished. Will visit once again to taste their Mutton curry and liver fry.

[@KK-gc5lj]

Every Sunday, I along with my football buddies will drive in to this place after our morning session around 9am and enjoy this delicious mutton biryani and mutton curry. We knew about this place for more than 2years, it started with a 15x40sq ft area with no proper roofing and green nets as walls. Happy to see how it has grown. The great part is to see the owner, a genuine honest guy to grow his business.

[@viveksingh5648]

Owner seems very humble and mutton curry is delicious

I still remember two years back me and friend crossing this hotel, the aromatic smell of there foods which made us to visit this hotel. But it was shocking for us of there Mutton Biriyani taste was beyond our expectations and other dishes too. Must try Biriyani in Bangalore.

Forget about taste or review etc but when it comes to explaining the food, Kripal sir does the best among all as a result sometimes simplest of the dishes looks yum. Kudos to food professor Kripal Sir. Love the channel

[@tenalilakshman4309]

Mr. Kripal Amanna, this is the first time I am making a comment despite watching many food videos. What I like in your videos is the way you capture the taste of respective ingredients (tiny spices at times) apart from the smoothest way of explaining. Your face expression indicate the taste of food, which is very unique. Also like your choice of hotels mostly small to medium size, who require mouth publicity to survive or sustain. Please do come to Hyderabad again to taste at many other hotels (Post Covid19). Good Luck.

Starting from the professional camera work and crisp editing of the videos, to the way Kripal comprehensively reviews a restaurant and its offerings, Food Lovers TV simply stands apart.
