Tiwari Bros. Mithaiwala Opera House



God please have some mercy on me. I am writing this blog on empty stomach. I am very hungry. Today is Aastami and the Durga Puja with hom/havan at my home is not yet over. The dinner is still miles away and this mad addict is hooked to his blogging.

Well, Tiwari Bros. Mithaiwala is a house of Pure Ghee Products, where use of onion and garlic in preparation is prohibited.

My claim should not be sounding exaggerated, if I describe “Tiwari Bros. Mithaiwala as “The Rolls-Royce of mithaiwala's”. The shop pampers all our five senses. All I can say is to prove me correct; the conventional wisdom is to feel experience at Tiwari Bros.

You just enter the shop and the aroma of Chat’s will drive you crazy and it will ignite the craving to grab Samosa’s / Chole Puri/ Ragda Pattice / Missi Roti Gatte Ka Sag / Matar Puri / Paneer Cutlet/ Ghughara. The only choice left is to order sizzling hot dishes or just chilled dishes like Raj Kachori / Mixed chat / Papri Chat/ Dahi Kachori / Dhokla followed by Kesar Kulfi Faluda / Kesar Pista Milk Shake / Lassi which simply takes your breath away.

Do not be under the wrong impression that Tiwari Bros is famous only for Chat’s. The fact is Tiwari’s Bros. are in main business of selling Sweets and it’s taken very seriously.

The only mention of names of the sweets available at Tiwari is enough for diabetics to rush for Sugar checkup. Just look at their long list of Badam Pista (common ingredients) Sweets ranging from Badam Pista (common ingredients) Barfi/ Chakra / Roll / Pan / Kalingar/ Tohfa / Phool / Ruby along with others sweets like Kaju Katli / Kesar Kaju Katri / Kesar Kaju Roll / Kaju Pista Roll / Kaju Anjir Katli / Kaju Pista Tiring / Kesari Moti Pak / Mawa Barfi / Mango Barfi / Coconut Barfi / Kesar Milk Kalakand / Kesar Pista Gulab Jamun. (Here I stop typing as forced by aching fingers). When one has to distribute pedhe on special occasions, Tiwari’s the only ultimate choice. Mawa Pera/ Kesar Pera / Malai Pera, Mishri Pera, you just name it and please go ahead and celebrate.

One does not have to travel all the way to Calcutta for Bengali mithai. Just travel to Tiwari Bros. for Rasogola/ Rajbhog / Khirmohan / Rasmalai / Kesar Cham cham/ Malai Cham Cham / Malai Sandwich / Shanti Bhog/ Prem Bhog/ Rasmadhuri / Sondesh / Kacha Gola Sondesh / Dul Khush Sondesh. (Exception, Bengali sweets at “Sweet Bengal” are also good.)

After writing this blog, I must visit Pathology Lab and check my cholesterol level. But before that tomorrow, I will be visiting Tiwari Bros for Sunday morning special Kesar Jalebi and Khasta Kachori.
