جي جي جليبي — Since 1947

JJ Jalebi

Mohammed Ali Road, Mumbai  ·  Since 1947  ·  Now in Dubai 🇦🇪

75 Years. One Secret Recipe. Finally in Your City.

Since 1947 — The Story No One Forgets

1947. Partition. A new city. Rafeek Shaikh sets up a small sweet shop near JJ Hospital on Mohammed Ali Road, Nagpada, Mumbai. The jalebis were different — darker, richer, made with mawa instead of maida. Mumbaikars didn't call it by its name. They just said "JJ Jalebi." The name stuck. 75 years later — same kadai, same recipe, same magic. Now in Dubai.

1947
Born on Mohammed Ali Road, Mumbai. Rafeek Shaikh's first sweet shop near JJ Hospital.
1970s
Mumbaikars made it a legend — JJ Jalebi becomes the city's shorthand for the best jalebi in town.
2000s
Three generations. Same recipe. No shortcuts. No compromises. The queue never got shorter.
2022
Dubai 🇦🇪. The world's first JJ Jalebi outside India. Al Karama welcomes Mohammed Ali Road.

The Secret Has Never Changed

🌾
Multi-grain flour
Not regular maida. A special blend that makes the jalebi absorb syrup differently — crispier outside, softer inside. You'll notice immediately.
🚫
Zero frozen food
Everything made fresh daily. If it's not fresh, it doesn't go on your plate. That's been the rule since 1947 and it hasn't changed.
🌿
Secret Bombay chutney
The herbs come from Bombay. The recipe stays in the family. You'll taste the difference before you can explain it.
100% Halal
Always has been. Always will be. Certified and verified. Every dish, every day.

Why People Cross the City

These four dishes have been on our menu since the beginning. They haven't changed because they don't need to.

🌀 🌀
Mawa Jalebi
Dark. Dense. Cream-filled. Made with pure mawa — not the pale yellow jalebi you're used to. This is the reason Dubai found out about us.

Seekh Paratha
Grilled minced meat wrapped in freshly made paratha. Served with the secret Bombay chutney — ingredients flown in from Mumbai. Our most reviewed dish in Dubai.

Malpua with Rabri
Deep-fried sweet pancake. Soaked in warm sugar syrup. Drowned in cold thick rabri. Served together. Eaten slowly. One of those combinations you think about days later.

Mutton Bhuna with Pav
Slow cooked. Hours of bhunao. Rich, dark, layered masala. Served with fresh pav. Probably the best version of this dish in Dubai — our customers keep saying it.

Seekh Paratha and Mawa Jalebi — make sure you try these. The taste is worth every dirham. Nothing like it anywhere else in Dubai.

Their secret Bombay chutney — they bring the herbs directly from Bombay. Something very special. You can't replicate it. I've been coming back just for the chutney.

Mutton Bhuna with Pav — probably the best version in Dubai. I've been searching for two years and finally found it. This is the real deal.
