Butter Chicken Battle: Court to Decide Inventor in India
Two Indian restaurant chains, Moti Mahal and Daryaganj, are embroiled in a legal battle over the origins of popular dishes butter chicken and dal makhani, with Moti Mahal claiming to have invented them in the 1930s and Daryaganj asserting a partnership with Moti Mahal's founder. The lawsuit, seeking damages and alleging website and restaurant design infringement, has captured public attention in India, raising concerns about court time allocation amid a significant backlog of cases. The Delhi High Court is expected to hear the case in May.
