Halwa Puri in the Bronx | Chaman Restaurant

Halwa Puri in the Bronx, NY

Halwa Puri is the crown jewel of Pakistani breakfast culture — a dish that brings families together every weekend morning. At Chaman Restaurant, we serve a version that stays true to the way it’s made back home: golden, puffed puris fried to perfection, paired with rich, slow-cooked chanay (spiced chickpeas) and a generous helping of sweet semolina halwa. It’s the kind of meal that turns an ordinary Saturday into something worth waking up early for.

The puris at Chaman are rolled fresh to order, fried in clean oil until they blister and balloon — soft inside, with just the right amount of chew. The chanay are cooked low and slow with whole spices, onion, and tomato, finished with a tadka of cumin and dried red chili that fills the room with the kind of aroma that makes you feel like you’re in Lahore. The halwa is silky, buttery, and lightly sweet — the perfect counterpoint to the savory chickpeas.

Halwa Puri is a weekend tradition in Pakistani households, and we honor that here in the Bronx. Whether you grew up eating this dish every Sunday or you’re trying it for the first time, Chaman’s version will feel like the real thing — because it is.

Located at 2805 White Plains Rd, Bronx, NY 10467, Chaman Restaurant has become the go-to spot for the Pakistani community in Northeast Bronx and Westchester for authentic desi flavors. Our kitchen uses recipes passed down through generations, with no shortcuts and no compromises on spice quality.

Halwa Puri is available on weekends. We recommend coming early — it’s one of our most popular offerings and often sells out before noon. The full spread includes puri, chanay, halwa, and achar, served the traditional way.
