How it works

He cooks five services a week,
and only what has been ordered.

Biryani cannot be rushed and it does not survive being made two portions at a time. So orders come in the day before, the pot goes on for that service, and it goes out while it is still steaming. Nothing is cooked ahead and nothing is wasted.

01

Order by 6pm the day before

Pick your service, Friday dinner or a weekend lunch or dinner. Orders close at 6pm the day before delivery, and earlier is always fine.

02

He cooks that morning

Kababs go into their marinade a full day ahead. The rice is layered with saffron, fried onions and ghee, the lid goes on, and the pot does the rest.

03

It comes to your door

Delivered across Craigieburn, Greenvale, Mickleham and Roxburgh Park. Pay by card online, or cash when it arrives.

What people say

In their own words.

Some kind words from happy customers.

I tried many biryanis in Melbourne but each time I was disappointed as I couldn’t find the authentic Indian Hyderabadi dum biryani. And there comes Legendary Halal Biryani which is perfectly cooked and reminds me of the flavours I tasted in Hyderabad. Without any second thoughts, my biryani destination from now on would be Legendary Halal Biryani.

I haven't seen or tasted a biryani with so many authentic ingredients anywhere else. Every bite was packed with flavour.
Davis D.August 2026
The rice comes out light and fluffy. The chicken is so soft you can taste the marinade. His kababs sit a full day in their marinade, smoky and juicy.
FaizAugust 2026
I ordered the chicken biryani combo. The biryani was delicious, rice was cooked well and the chicken was well marinated. The kebab was flavourful and juicy.
GaziAugust 2026

Fahad cooking Hyderabadi biryani in his Mickleham home kitchen
Our story

He is not building an empire. He wants to cook for his neighbours.

Fahad ran a restaurant in India. Then he traded a farmers market for a year, and sold out every time. Now he cooks from his own kitchen in Mickleham, from his grandmother’s recipes, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday only.

20c

Twenty cents from every order goes to the National Zakat Foundation. It is printed right on the lid.

The kitchen

You can ask him anything about it.

It is a home kitchen, registered and inspected, and he would rather tell you exactly what that means than leave you guessing.

  • IngredientsHalal meat, saffron, ghee and other premium spices. Made fresh and sold fresh, same day.
  • Alcohol and porkNever in this kitchen
  • RegistrationRegistered with Hume City Council as a home caterer
  • Food safetyFood Safety Supervisor qualified
  • CookedFresh for every service, never ahead
Where a share goes

The sticker on the box says it. This is the receipt.

This kitchen donates a share of every order, which is the promise printed on the packaging. Orders placed here have sent $230 so far.

Questions

Before you order

How far ahead do I need to order?

Orders close at 6pm the day before delivery. If you want biryani on Sunday, order by 6pm Saturday. Earlier is always fine, and it helps, because everything is cooked to order.

Where do you deliver?

Craigieburn, Greenvale, Mickleham and Roxburgh Park. Delivery is $6, $8 or $10 depending on how far the drive is to your address, and the exact fee is shown before you pay.

Is the food halal?

Yes. Fahad uses halal meat, and there is no alcohol and no pork in the kitchen at all. The kitchen is registered with Hume City Council as a home caterer and he holds a Food Safety Supervisor qualification.

When do you cook?

Friday dinner, collection 7pm to 7:30pm or delivery 8pm to 9pm. Saturday and Sunday, the same dinner windows plus lunch, collection 1pm to 1:30pm or delivery 2pm to 3pm. Collection and delivery have separate times because Fahad cooks alone and cannot hand a box over at his door while he is out driving. Nothing is cooked ahead, so every service starts from a fresh pot.

What comes with a biryani?

Every biryani comes with raita, gravy and gulab jamun. Combos add kababs on top of that, and any combo comes with a free mango lassi.

Can I order for a party?

Yes. The 3kg biryanis and the 4 to 6 person combos are the party sizes, and larger orders are worth a phone call so Fahad can plan the cook.

How do I pay?

Card online, or cash when the food reaches your door.
