  My bestie insisted this was the original Hanumanthu. After parking the car some distance, we explored Mandi Mohalla and reached here. The place does look and feel authentic. Tiny place, just passage and nooks. We tried literally everything available on the menu at the time we went , a bit late, closer to 2pm I think. Of the rice items we tried the ghee rice, chicken palav, mutton palav, the mutton one being the best. The rice was non-oily, light and very lightly flavoured. Quite different. My friends liked it, might take getting used to for some. Of the sides, the mutton chops were the best, just juicy deliciousness. Two big pieces in one plate. So we needed a repeat order since we were 3. The chicken fry was nondescript, can avoid this one here. The kheema balls were good but not the best I have had. I did not have the mutton liver, but my friends did and said it was average.They were out of boti and leg soup but there is a bowl of leg soup given along with the palav so we did get to taste it. It was light and nice, somewhat looked like rasam they usually give in military hotels. We did not have the stomach for the thale mamsa.Overall good. Been wanting to try this place for a while and I could click done on my bucket list. My choice here though would be the mutton chops, not the rice.Went a second time, the mutton biryani was consistently good but to our disappointment, they were out of mutton chops as we were late on a Sunday. Second time around we had the Kheema Balls as there were no other sides left. Kheema balls can be avoided, it was below average. Don’t miss the Mutton Chops if you are going to this outlet of Hanumanthu.
