About Shamma Food and Catering Pty Ltd

Tucked away in Noble Park, this family counter cooks up authentic Tamil Muslim wedding biryani and homestyle comforts made fresh to order. Regulars bypass standard curry houses for the Ambur-style goat biryani, layering spiced rice with tender meat and authentic sides. The kitchen turns out fragrant Arabic rice simmered in lamb stock, served piping hot alongside crisp Chicken 65.

  • Ambur Biryani: Ambur and Tamil Muslim wedding-style goat biryani served with traditional regional sides.
  • Arabic Rice Combo: Rice simmered in savoury lamb stock, paired alongside spiced, crunchy Chicken 65.
  • Made Fresh to Order: Family-run kitchen crafting homestyle takeout fresh to order rather than reheating batches.
