Ordering Strategy

Go early in the week before the best flavors sell out, order by weight, and don't be afraid to accept the generous samples offered by the owner.

What to order

Safe first

Barfi

Dense, fudge-like squares made from milk, milk powder, and sugar syrup. The chocolate, pistachio, and almond flavors are legendary but sell out fast.

Hungry

Samosas

Freshly cooked, piping hot vegetarian savouries that provide the perfect savory contrast to all the sweet mithai.

Wildcard

Mohenthal

A grittier, savoury-leaning sweet made with gram flour and beautifully scented with saffron.

Good to know

The shop is takeaway only and closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. They also offer a small but excellent selection of savoury snacks like bhajis and bombay mix.
