12.10.2020
Trichy: A restaurant here offered chicken and mutton biriyani in exchange of the10 paise coin, which is no longer in use, on the occasion of World Biriyani Day on Sunday (October 11.) The eatery also sold biriyani for Re 1 to Covid-19 frontline workers in recognition of their efforts. The restaurant saw a footfall of around 200 people as people queued up to grab the offer.
City-based KMS Hakkim Kalyana Biriyani said the low-cost biriyani offer was to highlight World Biriyani Day celebrated by some eateries across the state. The restaurant in its social media campaign launched a few days ago, said people, who have the old 10 paise coin can approach the outlet to grab a pack of biriyani each after handing over the coin. “We did not expect such a massive response. We had planned to sell 100 packs in return for the 10 paise coins. But, more than 200 people came with the coins,” KMS Hakkim, proprietor of the restaurant told TOI. TNN
