Zains Restaurant, Calicut



Zains is where Kozhikode’s foodies go for their biriyani fix.

The dishes Zainabi Noor’s kitchen turns out every day are among the best examples of Mappila cooking you can get anywhere.

There is the wonderfully fragrant prawn and chicken biriyani; kozhi adachitathu (whole chicken stuffed with eggs) which is half-cooked in masala, then fried, before being returned to the masala; the wonderful meen pathiri, a rice-based bread this time, steamed in plantain leaves with a fried fish and savoury stuffing.

Zains is located behind the Fire Station on Convent Cross Road, South Beach,
Calicut - 673001
