The famous Nakhoda Masjid sits across from this unassuming location. A massive Degh is in front of a Bade Miyan who is seated outside the eatery. A person deep-frying some Kachori-like food is on one side, and a row of numbered steel tiffin boxes is on the other (these are for fulfilling delivery orders that were scheduled the night before). They serve Nihari for breakfast and usually finish by 6:30 AM (or 5:30 AM on Sundays). Each person gets a plate of beef nihari. We were informed that it should be had with their unique Dal Poori. In case the Dal Poori doesn't work, we insisted on getting a Tandoori Roti as well.

Tiretti Bazaar is well-known for its Chinese breakfast. When you have a Chinese breakfast in Kolkata, you're having wonton noodles, also called singara chow, from the Kimli restaurant. There is room for 20–25 individuals at a time in this tiny space. They have recently begun serving pork as well. After serving food from 9 AM to 2 PM, they open for dinner at 6 PM.

A plate of chicken and pork wonton noodles should be ordered, accompanied with a soup made with pork meatballs. The outside is juicy, slick, and slurpy, with a very thin coating. Garlic, salt, and pepper are then used as the core seasonings for the filling. These gentle, basic wontons feel comforting to the soul. Pork wontons are essentially steamed noodles with chopped spring onions and four to five wontons on top, along with little bits of pork. A large bowl of boiling clear soup is also served. The noodles taste fantastic with those spicy sauces, and the wontons are cooked to perfection.
