Ramzan is here and what we love about it is having the mouth watering Haleem. The classic Mughal delicacy of
boiled mutton, lentils and wheat is a treat for all non-veg lovers. The very
smell and flavor leaves us craving for more.
We are here to give you a list of places that serve
amazing Haleem, that you wouldn't want to miss out.
1. Pista House - Royapettah
Say Ramzan
and the first thing that comes to mind is Hyderabadi haleem. While Chennai sees
its fair share of haleem counters spring up every Ramzan, what the foodies here
missed was the authentic Hyderabadi haleem. A spicier and rich variant is
what Pista House offers us by setting up
shops in Chennai this year. While the eatery’s haleem is made much like every
other haleem, it is Pista House’s secret masala that sets it apart.
A plate of haleem is priced at Rs.
150 at the Triplicane branch, it costs Rs. 160 at the Pista House outlets. The
restaurant also caters to bulk orders placed in advance.
2. Maqs Barbecue N Biryani -
Thoraipakkam
Offering
sumptuous food at affordable rates, MAQ’S Barbecue ‘n Biryani was started with
the aim of offering authentic Hyderabadi dishes to its
customers. They serve not only during the festival but on every Fridays
throughout the year. The preparation takes 6-7 hours and is cooked to
perfection.
The cost for 250ml is Rs 160. MAQ’s
has also recently launched their e-commerce portal –
www.barbecue-n-biryani.com, through which guests can order food online and get
it delivered to their door and avail a five per cent discount on online
orders.
3. Hajeeras Kitchen - Velachery
At Hajeera’s
Kitchen, widely raved over online, 50 to 70 litres of the stew are prepared
every day, in a process that takes between six and eight hours. On weekends
they make close to 100 litres. This is a must try place for your Haleem
cravings.
During other seasons, they serve only
on prior bulk orders. Their iftar box is Rs 480 which
includes haleem,fruit salad, biryani, raita, brinjal, kebab and
a sweet of the day.
Special
cooks have been brought down from Hyderabad for the season of Ramzan. The
Haleem is simply the best in Chennai and so are the Lukhmi and samosas. The
Iftar packs are very popular - assortment of dates, samosas, lukhmi’s or spring
rolls. Feast on the biryani, khubani ka meetha and other specialities this
season.
Their mutton haleem is Rs 150 for 300
ml, and their iftar box is for Rs 500 which includes dates, pakoda, chicken
65, chicken rice, mutton haleemand
