The chart below will estimate how much Biryani is required depending on the type of Eater (Average Eater, Heavy Eater, Children). How much Biryani your guest will eat will also depend on how tasty the Biryani is.

The calculation should also consider what starters are being served before serving Biryani. If you serve heavy starters, the guests will tend to eat moderately. But if there are no starters, the guest may eat much more. Use the chart below accordingly.
