Humble beginnings
The journey of Junior Kuppanna began in the early Go's with Founder Thiru Kuppusamy's passion to bring the Kongu Nadu cuisine to the world. From truly humble beginnings, he set up a small eatery with a mere 12 seats. As customers started trickling in and savouring the dishes, word started to spread about his food, simple yet rich, healthy yet delicious. His signature and traditional Kongu Nadu biriyani was the talk of the town. Soft and tender pieces of mutton in rich spices and steeped in seeraga samba rice, cooked to perfection. Soon the word spread amongst the masses achieving cult status and customers christened it as 'Kuppanna biriyani'. Later Tamil icons like Kamaraj, MGR. Sivaji, Kalaignar and Jayalalitha to name a few became fans of Kuppanna.
Signature Seeraga Samba Biriyani -
"Throughout our journey, our Biriyani has stood the test of time. Handpicked spices from the region and traditional cooking methods passed through generations have been keeping our customers coming back for more. The biriyani is usually served on a banana leaf, the mutton pieces tear up ever so gently in your fingers, as you proceed to mix some spicy seeraga samba rice to form a mouthful, the aroma beckons you, as you proceed to devour the mouthful you've made and from there on, it's just pure bliss. Our customers have fondly named it 'The best biriyani in town.
