Yeah I'd think that it would be something that founds it's way to Suriname but as you said India is a big place. I never heard of biriyani before Vejay introduced it to me. Most Indian restaurants here just serve curry, nan and tandoori chicken.
It’s so good. I’m sure you’ll find it in Amsterdam.

The curry and roti are staples in Surinamese Indian kitchens, with aloo and other veggies, but tandoori chicken isn't. Could be that the Indian migrants who came as indentured workers back then were from a specific region.
Now there are a few Indian restaurants in Suriname serving biryani and tandoori chicken etc. but those are mostly run by "new" (more recent) immigrants.
