Since there’s no seating over here, it’s pretty easy to just get your stuff and eat on your way, no hustle bustle, no crowd swarming (at least at that hour of the day).
Pretty cool ambience with scientific apparatus and neon lighting. Peppy music in the background.
Obviously there’s no wasting time in service either. Pick your dessert and there it is. The amount of time taken in choosing, however, is something I can’t guarantee about. BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S.

We started with the White chocolate torte which had these tiny colourful macarons (not to be confused with macaroons) which were just absolutely heavenly, disappeared as soon as we put them in our mouth. To add to it , the white chocolate and raspberry were the perfect match. There was a joyous feeling overpowering us just by this one tiny piece of dessert.

And the desserts.

And the desserts.

The Red Velvet Ice cream, apart from the fancy works of the ice cream making process, which was indeed fascinating, was bringing out the child in us . There was a slight doubt whether all of this was only a work of show. We got our answer just with the first bite. DEATH BY ICE CREAM. Not only was it tasty, the syringe which had this coffee-chocolate (we kept guessing) sauce, was the best topping there possibly could be for an ice cream. With every bite you go mmmmm..

White chocolate and raspberry Torte ❤

We got ourselves another Torte,The Red velvet in a jar and Banoffie pie which were packed well enough to reach home without getting spoilt. They tasted equally Good .

Basically I could say, I like this place just as much as I like Whipped or maybe even more! A little area for seating is the only thing this place needs. Not everyday, but yes every few days, I’d love to treat myself to such luxury of expensive Ice Cream.

They involve Nitro ice-cream in their menu , which are a sight to the eye and heaven to the tongue.
