SWEET TREAT !!!

Sweet dishes occupy an important place in the diet of Bengalis. With competition and changing tastes, this industry has grown within the state helping to create many new sweets and other mouthwatering desserts that will surely make a man's mood better!

Recently, Kolkata- the land of sweets, is experiencing many new kinds of dessert corners which are worth exploring. With such a motive in mind, we continued our foodwalk to one such corner.......

                 BELGIAN WAFFLE JUNCTION & THE SHAKE FACTORY





ADDRESS: 26/7, Bankim Mukherjee Sarani, New Alipore, Kol- 700053

ORIGIN: Originally waffles were originated in North America. Within a span of time, a new kind of waffle was invented which were made with a lighter batter, larger squares and deeper pockets than ordinary American waffles. These new kind of waffles were named as famous "BELGIAN WAFFLES".

" You should eat a waffle! You can't be sad if you eat a waffle."

INTRODUCTION: The parent company of Belgian Waffle Junction is from Belgium and it is the master franchise of India. This is Kolkata's first outlet opened on December 25, 2017. This junction serves over 150 kinds of waffles starting from ordinary Belgian waffles, bubble waffles to lolly waffles and waffle sundaes.
                               This place is also collaborated with THE SHAKE FACTORY. So not only good  waffles are served here, with that a wide range of milkshakes of unique and weirdly tasty flavours are also spotted.






WHAT WE ORDERED: 

  • STRAWBERRY DELIGHT BUBBLE WAFFLE: Bubble waffle is basically an egg waffle which is a spherical egg-based waffle popular in Hong Kong and Macau. This particular bubble waffle was first covered with a thick layer of chocolate, then filled with the goodness of strawberry. At last it was covered with whipped cream, strawberries, jelly candies and sprinkles.




          INR: 250
          BLOGGER'S OPINION: It's really a strawberry delight and a piece of dreamland in front            of you!



  • OREO LOLLY WAFFLE: Lolly waffles are nothing but lollipop like thin waffles over a stick covered with desired topping. Oreo lolly waffle was a chocolate waffle covered with crushed Oreo biscuits and a layer of nutella. It was also decorated with whipped cream and sprinkles.





           INR: 130
           BLOGGER'S OPINION: Something new which looks good and tastes better, not too                  heavy but proportionate. Most importantly, a real treat for everyone of every age!



  • CARAMEL POPCORN MILKSHAKE: As said before, The Shake Factory will never fail to excite you with all its amazing flavours. This caramel popcorn thick milkshake was filled with the richness of caramel and flavours of popcorn in it which was neither too sweet nor salty, perfect blend for a hot summer day.




           INR: 160
           BLOGGER'S OPINION: A must try! Was really a good partner for the waffle treats!

Be it waffles or be it shakes, this place will never disappoint you! A great place to hang out with friends and family. It has a small corner called the "Note Wall" where you can share your experience and leave your signature.
We tried it, it's time for you to mesmerize yourselves with the waffles and shakes as "nothing is better than food or rather sweet food😊!"

UNINHIBITED SUMMER !!

SUMMER... Summer for me is a state of mind, every summer has it's own story. It's summer ! Be free and happy and danceful and uninhibited and now ... Since childhood I have always felt that, Summertime is always the best of what might be. As they say, ' The tans will fade but the memories will last forever '. So as Summer is upon us, I have opted an outfit for myself that would keep me all cool and comfortable out in a sunny sunny day. I have teamed up  BROWN KNITTED TOP with long sleeves, with a CLASSIC DENIM MINI SKIRT.  🔸The BROWN KNITTED TOP  I am wearing, well nothing can be more comfortable than long sleeves in this season. Long sleeves not only gives us a funky look but also protects us from the tan and the heat. If I have a day planned out in the sun, I very much prefer long sleeves. Long sleeve tops are wadrobe essentials for summer. Long and volume sleeves give you a boxy and smart look. BRAND : FOREVER 21 MATERIAL : Cotton FOREV...

Peeping HOT!

Winter tales No matter, how many sweaters, we had pulled out from our trunk, winter dumped us again. However, few things are there which can never cheat on Bengalis! One such is our love for "গরম গরম কচুরি " Kachoris are basically a deep fried puffy and flaky bread loved by most of the Indians. This spicy North Indian dish is stuffed with anything ranging from, pulses ( dal ), peas, dried mango ( amchur ) or just spices! We Bengalis love to tear burst the peeping hot bread, fold it, scoop in some runny potatoes or sweetened daal and yummy!                talking of the places Bengalis have trusted for their kachoris since ages, our first mention would be this. featuring : Sharma Tea House This super crowded busy  snack station lies in the heart of Bhawanipore, pouring down every moment with more crowd, clustering with their plates of essentials ( KACHORI, POTATO CURRY, SAMOSAS). A few showed up with p...
