Shree Makhan Bhog is essentially a sweet meat shop, more towards the Bengali cuisine. Located on the main JP Road of Seven Bungalows, it provides a tough competition to Chandru's located closeby.
This eatery has far higher levels of hygiene than its competitors. The delicacies are stacked within glass shelves and the shop itself has a glass door, (its not an open air outlet), thus filtering any kind of dust or grime seeping in.

Their Kala Jamun is to die for. The Ras gullas, the fry fruit mithais and the laddoos are hot items.
It being Dusseira today, I called for a boxful of Malai sandwiches. INR 25 a piece, they were a delight just looking at, leave alone taste. Extremely soft and spongy and Vark laden (Vark is made by pounding silver into a sheet a few micrometres thick and is used for garnishing sweets in South Asian cuisine), with a layer of cream sandwiched within. And hence the name.
Verdict: Fair priced, hygienic and good stuff. A monopolistic location. But they only sell sweet meats, thus restricting visits to them only for limited occasions.
