11 Best Places To Have Moong Dal Halwa In Delhi

One great thing about winter is that we don’t have to wait for a wedding to gorge on the sumptuous moong dal ka halwa. Literally swimming in ghee, this halwa proves - the greasier, the better. And there’s nothing better than the winter season when we have the excuse of ‘high metabolism’ to gobble down all these calories. But honestly, when it comes to this halwa, we don’t even care anymore. So, here’s a list of some of the wonderful places in Delhi where you can score some luscious moong dal ka halwa!

We’re always left amazed by Haldiram’s, and how, everything they serve can be so damn good?
