Need more than one generous plate? Why not try a bucket of biryani for $40. Yes, a whole KFC style bucket of spiced rice and meat, enough for the whole class.
Meal #7 - $15. Beef (or chicken) haleem, biryani rice, naan bread and a can of drink. Bargain! To describe the consistency of haleem is the only time ever that you are legally allowed to use the word unctuous in food writing. Haleem is a slow cooked mix of meat and beans, topped with fried onions (giant bags of fried onions also available on the front counter.) The biryani is meat-free and 90% as wonderful as the goat biryani.
Naan bread comes with meal, get your own drinks from the fridge.
Kulfi faluda - $5. This tastes like Indian sweets with a texture of melting ice cream. O, boy.

We're keen to head back to try the charga, Pakistani style fried chicken. And a bucket of biryani, of course.
Student Biryani is at 42 Auburn Road, Auburn.
I made the trip out to Student Biryani after reading your review. Ordered the haleem meal set. Delicious! So rich and tasty, it almost doesn't even need meat. It's up there with Faheem Enmore's haleem. Agree the vegetable biryani is also brilliant alone. Got a chicken biryani to go because I'm greedy. While the rice was stellar, I found the chicken somewhat dry and overcooked but it still had bags of flavour. Maybe goat is the way to go next time. Thanks for the inspiring review!
