Swad or Shan?
So many Basmati rice brands. Which one is the best?

I had always used Zebra and loved it...then a while ago they weren't available....so I tried Tilda...they are good too...
Sorry no experience with Shaan or any others....

The best I've ever had was Laziza in Melbourne. I haven't found it anywhere in Canada though. I tried Zebra and Daawat a few times, and they're pretty good. Tilda is OK. I recently came across this brand I hadn't heard of before: Pameer. That is amazing rice! I love it!

Zebra
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
