Combining the old with the new, Ghantewala, the Mughal-era outlet in Old Delhi’s bustling Chandni Chowk, reopened its doors after almost a decade.

The 'Sohan halwa', a ghee dripping gram flour biscuit of Persian origin, has been a trademark delicacy of the shop.

Established in 1790 by Lala Sukh Lal Jain, Ghantewala, one of the popular landmarks of 'Dilli 6' was forced to to pull down its shutters in 2015 due to dwindling sales.

The new swanky avatar is attracting its patrons with the same old wafting aroma of desi ghee and the sweet mix of khoya, coconut and rich nuts.
