Who does not love Biryani! It is found in such a variety, like Chicken Biryani, Mutton Biryani, Veg Biryani, Soya Biryani and egg Biryani. What if we get Biryani in the temple as Prasad?
Yes, you read it right. There is a temple in south India where mutton Biryani is given as Prasad. Hundreds of thousands of people come here to eat biryani. Biryani is being used as prasad for people since 1937 in Wadkkapatti village in Madurai, Tamil Nadu.
Muniyadi Hotel feeds Biryani in the temple. Actually, Gurusamy Naidu started the Muniyandi Hotel in the name of local God Muniyandi of this village. Then one by one, the other people, named Muniyandi, also opened the hotel under this name.
All these hotels are known for feeding delicious non-veg to their customers. There are now around 1500 Muniyandi hotels in the whole of South India. The owners of the hotel gather at the two-day Muniyandi Festival every year, where mutton biryani is distributed as Prasad.
In this way, all the shopkeepers thank their goddess Muniyandi for their successful business. In the recently held festival, about 8 thousand people were fed mutton biryani as Prasad.
