Nihari Houses

Have you ever heard of the word "nihari"? It's a really special and delicious dish that people in some parts of the world like to eat. In fact, it's so special that some restaurants specialize in making it and they're called "nihari houses".

Nihari is a type of stew that is usually made with beef or mutton (sheep meat). It's cooked very slowly over low heat for a very long time to make the meat very tender and the spices really flavorful.

At a nihari house, you can go and order nihari to eat. They have very special chefs who know how to make the nihari taste amazing. They use all sorts of spices and special techniques to make it just right.

When you go to a nihari house, you'll usually sit at a table with your friends or family and someone will come and take your order. They might ask you if you want it spicy or not, and if you want it with bread or rice.

After a little while, your nihari will arrive! It's usually served in a big bowl with a spoon for you to eat it with. You can scoop up some of the delicious meat and gravy and put it on your plate with some bread or rice. Then, you can eat it with your fork and knife or even your hands if you want!

All in all, a nihari house is a really special place where people can go to eat a really special dish with their loved ones.
