Best Ramzan food spots in Tolichowki
Stop 1: Patthar ka Ghosht at Deccan Kitchen
The sizzling pieces of meat, searing on a hot stone create an irresistible sight that draws you in instantly- you simply cannot help but stop here. Cooked to perfection, the meat retains its smoky, charred essence while staying juicy. Served with a side of mint chutney, this dish is the perfect way to kick off the food trail.
Stop 2: Haleem at Shah Ghouse
It would be an injustice to go on a Ramzan food trail and not try a plate of velvety haleem. Stop at Tolichowki’s Shah Ghouse early on, as the demand for this delicacy only grows through the night. The perfect blend of meat, wheat and spices results in a melt-in-your-mouth texture that you will remember for years to come.
Stop 3: Mutton Marag at Jani Miyan Kababs
While Tolichowki’s Jani Miya Kababs is famous for its kababs, its mutton marag is an unmissable gem. The soft and tender mutton in the creamy, spice-infused broth paired with soft naan is so comforting that it feels like a warm embrace. It is a must-try on this food trail.
Stop 4: Malai bun at Hassan Dairy
Situated beside Jani Miyan Kababs, Hassan Dairy‘s malai bun is unmissable. Served fresh and generously slathered with khowa and creamy sweet malai, this indulgent treat is the perfect way to balance out the spice-heavy dishes of the Tolichowki food trail.
Stop 5: Haleem at Aazebo
If you are a hardcore haleem fan, only one bowl through the night might not be enough for you. Stop at Aazebo for a second round of haleem.
Stop 6: Cocktail platter at Laknoi Kebabs
Stop at Laknoi Kababs for its magical ambience with fairy lights twinkling all around and stay for their finger-licking kebabs. Their cocktail platter is a true highlight, offering a taste of Zafrani Kebab, Reshmi Kebab and Malai Kebab paired with fresh mint chutney. It is an ideal pick for those who love variety.
Stop 7: Phirni at Bismillah Sweets
The final stop on this food trail calls for something sweet and Bismillah Sweets delivers with its chilled and subtle phirni. Served in a matka, the phirni is creamy, lightly sweetened and has just a hint of cardamom. It is a perfect way to end the night, offering a contrast to the spiced dishes we tried before.
