Hira Sweets, you have forever ruined the value of $3 (!!!!!) for me. Outstanding meal:
Masala dosa: big crepe with potatoes. Delicious.
Aloo Bedmi: reccomended by server. Spicy potato stew with big crispy puffy breads to dip it in. I will repeat: it’s spicy.
Balushahi: a dense buttery donut ball.
Milk Cake: even more crumbly buttery goodness. Very well done.
You know you made the right decision coming here when you stand outside and take in the aroma.
10/10, one of my favorite meals as a restaurant goer

Part 2! Ofc I came back.
Asked dudes at counter to give me the other best sellers. Didn’t know what anything is so Gemini helped:
Top Left: Kalakand – A soft, grainy milk cake made from solidified, sweetened milk and paneer.
Top Right: White Barfi – A dense, milk-based fudge topped with pistachios and cardamom bits.
Center (Green):Pista Laddu flavored sweet (pistachio) wrapped in Chandi Ka Vark (edible silver foil).
Bottom left: Moong Dal Halwa– rice or curd like texture. This might be my favorite versus milk cake (bottom right).
Silver Foil (Middle bottom): Kaju Katli cashew fudge, which was like flaky caramel.
Samosa and badaam milk (yellow from saffron and slightly sweet) were great too.

Part 3! I’m back in Delhi.
I tried many more items and I came to the conclusion that if you’re a noob who wants to try everything, the move is this: go upstairs and get a menu. On the back, they have their best desserts. You can try them all for like $8 (and judgement from your waiter, but yolo). Also add the milk cake and badam milk, and you have a legendary mukbang. And diabetes.
Here’s the explanation of the dessert menu:
The "Syrupy & Fried" Group
* Gulab Jamun: Warm, fried dough balls in rose syrup. The gold standard of Indian sweets. My favorite place for this is Daryaganj Restaurant.
* Rasgulla: Spongy, airy cheese balls in a light, clear syrup. (Rasmalai is def better imo.)
* Rajbhog: A jumbo version of Rasgulla, colored yellow with saffron and stuffed with nuts.
* Jalebi: Crunchy, bright orange spirals filled with syrup. Tastes like Krispy Kreme donut.
* Balushahi: the flaky, ghee-fried donut
* Malpua: Rich, syrupy fried pancakes with crispy edges.
The "Milk & Cream" Group
* Rasmalai: Flattened cheese discs soaked in chilled, sweetened saffron milk. Very good.
* Kulfi: Traditional Indian ice cream. It's much denser and creamier than the Western kind. Comes on a stick…like a corn dog, but ice cream (lol).
* Rabri: Milk reduced for hours until it becomes a thick, velvety cream. Get it with the Jalebi.
* Fruit Cream: fruit chunks…and whipped cream
The "Halwa" (Warm Pudding) Group
* Gajar Halwa: The classic winter pudding made from grated carrots, milk, and ghee.
* Moong Dal Halwa: A heavy, nutty, and rich pudding made from lentils.
* Badam Halwa: A luxury pudding made entirely from ground almonds.
* Gond Halwa: A chewy, "healthy" pudding made from edible gum, usually eaten for energy.
Thank you all for coming to my white guy TED talk on Hira Sweets.
