    Very famous for their breakfast & Evening meal (nasta). Since 1958 they have been selling sweets & "nasta". They have a variety of sweets that are famous among the locals. But i just loved their Halva/Halwa. The taste was really good, which is mixed in the mouth & balance sweet level. This was the best halwa I have ever eaten. Must try their halwa with paratha/luchi.

    A old and traditional sweet shop in town. The shop is full packed in the morning for breakfast meal. They sell Luchi, Parata, mix vegetables, dal, haluya and different type of sweets all day long. They also sell lunch items like Vat, meat and Khichuri. I was recommended to test their Haluya and test is so delicious. Recommended to test mix vegetables and Chanar Amitti.

    One of the oldest restaurants in Dhaka. Tasty paratha, vaji, daal and suji. Yummy yogurt, sweet would quench the thirst of taking sweets. Breakfast or lunch, try paratha. Loved it since my university life.

    Food was good. Food quality is also good. They are well known sweet Maker of Bangladesh. Their price range a bit high but I guess it's worthy. You can eat porota, vhaji, Halua all day long here and it's delicious too.

    It is one of the oldest sweet shops in Dhaka city. Located at Motijheel Office Area (Ittefaq Junction). Previously, breakfast in this shop was very popular. Especially parota-bhaji and rasgolla had a lot of taste. However, the taste and quality of food is deteriorating day by day.

  • 5/5 Quazi Shakil M. 1 year ago on Google
    A breakfast/snacks serving place established in 1958 is the best place in Dhaka to have mixed vegetables dish, shuji/semolina halwa, mxd lentil & good yogurt in the morning. It's one of the oldest restaurant in Dhaka which is quite underrated but those who knows this place always long for their hawla & mixed vegetables which unparalleled to any. They are open from the very early hours of the day till night. The price very very reasonable at this age of price hike.

    It is Located near Hathkhola, opposite of old Ittefaq Bhaban, Deshbandhu is an all day breakfast shop that opened in 1958. The place is renowned for its breakfast items and afternoon snacks. Paratha-bhaji (local bread & vegetables)is sold here all day long. The vegetable is actually very good but it’s normally a bit dark. The sweet items are worth trying.

    Historically famous restaurant. The food was good

  • 5/5 MD.Inzamamul H. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the oldest hotel in Dhaka. Still unbeaten hotet for taking breakfast. Haluwa is the best item in this hotel and best haluwa in Dhaka. Vegetable is good enough. Many servant holders of Motijheel commercial area come here to take their breakfast regular. One bad thing : this holet's atmosphere is not good. So decrepit... Hope this hotel authority will improve this lack.
