About

Famous food street known for authentic Mughlai cuisine and Ramadan delicacies. This bustling stretch in South Mumbai transforms into a gastronomic paradise every evening, with dozens of open-air stalls and restaurants serving succulent seekh kebabs, melt-in-the-mouth nalli nihari, fragrant biryani, and crispy malpua. During Ramadan, the street reaches its peak with special iftar spreads drawing food lovers from across the city—queues stretch for blocks at popular spots like Noorani, Shalimar, and Suleman Usman Mithaiwala. The cooking is done over charcoal grills and massive iron kadhai, filling the air with irresistible aromas.
