Shabrati Nahari Centre

Unclaimed

Best nihari places in the alleys of old delhi. Don't expect a good ambience. But the nahiri they serve, is outstanding. Very light, not overloaded with ghee and spices. Hit items on their menu are Buff nihari, Brain Nihari, Nalli and Khameeri roti. The best part is, they offer a quarter quantity @70 rupees only. So far, this was the best Nihari i have ever had.

The place is tucked deep inside the lanes near Jama Masjid. Tried the mutton nihari, Maghaz and Khamiri Roti. Everything is made fresh. The place is a tiny, cramped, stereotypical Anthony Bourdain joint. The Khamiri roti is made fresh and served warm, tears easily and is very mildly sweet. The Nihari is fairly lightly seasoned, and has good chunks of mutton but still felt overpriced. The Maghaz has very mild seasoning, so the aftertaste is fairly strong.

Located near Jama Masjid in a super congested lane – strictly avoid cars, two-wheelers barely squeeze through. Small shop, but you can park right infront of the shop. The nihari is flavorful and tender, comparable to Ballimaran’s, though Ballimaran is better. Pricing is pocket-friendly – full meal under ₹200. Worth a try if you're exploring Old Delhi food spots. Hope this review will help you all. ?
