About Chicken 65

Chicken 65 is spicy, deep-fried chicken bites from Chennai, coated in a marinade of chili, ginger, garlic and curry leaves. The most common story is that it was first served at Buhari Hotel in 1965, though how it got its name is still argued about.

Regional versions

Some places serve it dry and crisp, others toss it in a yogurt and chili sauce. Gobi 65 and paneer 65 are vegetarian versions.

What to order with it

It is a starter or a bar snack. Pair it with a biryani for a classic South Indian meal.

How this list is made

We started from public records, OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps, searched town by town for places those records miss, and read each restaurant's menu from its website or online ordering page. Places whose opening hours we could not confirm recently say so, and we check them again every month. Dishes marked "on the menu" come from the restaurant's own website or ordering page. "Usually served" is our best guess from the style of the place, so call ahead if you have your heart set on it.
