Located on Sindhu Bhavan Road, Birmies has a prominent signage. Much more spacious than their flagship at Panjarapol, it has simply furnished interiors. The restaurant is a very pleasant place with inside and outside dining areas.
Birmies, Vastrapur, Ahmedabad: FOOD
Birmies is known for its Punjabi food and for its own creations of fusion dishes taking inspiration from Mexican or Chinese cuisines. ‘Paratha Sharatha’ is a section of the menu dedicated to parathas – the Aloo Paratha is a long standing favorite of Birmies patrons, but the Paneer Paratha, Gobhi Paratha, Missi Paratha and Cheese Paratha are also very good.
Another of Birmies top sellers are their mini meals. The Hum Pum Paneer is a one dish meal of paneer in a piquant tomato sauce that can be mopped up with the accompanying garlic bread. Cottage Cheese Shalmargo has a mild cheesy sauce and buttered rice. The Ginger Vegetables are served with tortillas. They also have a take on Mexican Fried Rice served with a curry sauce.
Their Indianised takes on Chinese food like Paneeror Veg Chilly, Paneerin Szechwan Sauce, Vegetables in Hot Garlic Sauce or the hot and spicy Shezwan Vegetables are also popular. They also have the ubiquitous selection of Punjabi dishes of rajma, chana, paneer or mixed veggies, which are not bad. You could opt for combos like Chana with purior Paneer Taka Takwith paratha.
The sandwiches and open faced cheese toasts are worth having, but the baked dishes are overly sweetened.
