Military hotel" simply means non-vegetarian—old army lingo for a place serving meat, and donne biryani is Bangalore's style with a coarse rice and a rustic, fragrant paste in a donne leaf cup. But I'll tell you, the real heart of a biryani is in its soil and its patience, not its name. My Vypin neighbours' meen biryani, steamed in banana leaf with fish from our backwaters, has a story deeper than any city hotel's. I know this because my best pineapples grow where the land holds just the right monsoon memory, not from any imported recipe.
