Ramadan is a festival that is celebrated all over the world by Muslims. The process of praying and fasting is almost the same everywhere too. But what sets apart Hyderabad in the month of Ramadan is the Hyderabadi Haleem.
Ramadan is a festival that is celebrated all over the world by Muslims. The process of praying and fasting is almost the same everywhere too. But what sets apart Hyderabad in the month of Ramadan is the Hyderabadi Haleem. It is a popular dish consisting of meat/lentils and wheat or barley. The origins of Haleem can be traced back to the 10th century where it was first cooked in the Arab countries.
It was initially called 'Harees' and was bought to Hyderabad during the time of the Sixth Nizam, Mahboob Ali Khan. By the time of the Seventh Nizam, Mir Osman Ali Khan, the Hyderabadi Haleem became famous on its own with its unique flavour. But it is not just the flavour that sets apart Hyderabad's Haleem – it's because of the bonds people form while sharing it. Let's take a look at some of the famous Haleem restaurants in Hyderabad where bonding happens
Pariwar's Have More Restaurant, SD Road
"We started this restaurant two years back. We wanted to do something unique unlike others, so we don't serve haleem only for the month of Ramzan, but we serve haleem 365 days. Customers loved this idea a lot and come here all year round to have our haleem," said Majaz Hussain, the owner of Pariwar's Have More Restaurant - SD Road, Secunderabad. Syed Rahim, a customer, shared: "I come here very often to have haleem knowing that this place serves haleem 365 days. Whenever I crave for haleem, I come here to have it as the haleem here is very tasty and flavourful." Mehek, another customer, too, lauds it: "The taste of their haleem is really very unique and is loved by everyone. Due to the 365 days availability one can come here anytime to have haleem."

"We've been serving haleem since the past five years for every Ramzan. After taking a lot of feedbacks and reviews from our customers, we have made few changes and improvement in the taste, service and quality. Now we serve what our customers love most. That's what has helped us to grow a lot," said Narsimha, owner, LNS Grand 360, Alwal. Suresh, a customer, said: "One can come here and have tasty haleem during Ramadan without fail. The haleem here is unique in taste with its spiciness and its very nicely cooked."
