So Some state or region has its own culture for their cuisines. So we identify them only by their special and identical cooking preparation which are really well known by all of us.As for example For Mughlai khana we always know that Biriyani is the most favorable delicacy.

But think as Mughal culture and Lucknow culture are more or less same in their cooking style. Still it has to be some differentiation in some cases.
