S.M. Street, or Sweet Meat Street, has a rich history dating back centuries, when Kozhikode was a major trading port. It initially thrived as a silk market, hence the 'S.M.' in its name. Over time, the street evolved into a hub for sweet vendors, particularly those specializing in Kozhikode Halwa, a sweet delicacy that became synonymous with the region. The street's prominence grew alongside Kozhikode's commercial importance. During British rule, it remained a significant trading center. Post-independence, S.M. Street retained its charm and became a symbol of Kozhikode's cultural identity. Today, it stands as a testament to the city's historical trade links and its enduring love for all things sweet, attracting tourists and locals alike.
