Ice - CHEM !!!

"One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating!" - Luciano Pavarotti

During this time of the year, in this hot and humid summer our eyes always search for something tasty, delicious, sweet which is definitely cold!
Well the best food that can fulfill all our summer-food criteria is: ICE CREAM!

It is often said "Ice Cream solves everything"
Yes! It does indeed!
It refreshes us, makes our moods better in these long sweaty summer days - One  scoop of ice cream is all it takes!

HISTORY: 
Ice cream got it's existence in India during the mughals in the 16th century when ice used to be dipped in fruity and honey sorbet. That's how the first ancient dessert was created.

INTRODUCTION:
In this modern world, ice cream is not only ice with fruit and honey but also created with many other ingredients, methods and discoveries!
Whenever we say 'Ice Cream' the first ideas that pop up are: something tasty, sweety, melting kind, chilled....... Isn't it??? But wait, what if I say it's something more??🤔


With this agenda of knowing more and surprising more, we continued our foodwalk to a place where ice creams are not just desserts made with sugar but also with chemistry!
So be ready for experiencing some colours, flavours and smokes!

          PLACE: MUMBLE'S LAB
          ADDRESS: 23A, MANI AANGAN, BLOCK H, NEW ALIPORE, KOL- 700053





DESCRIPTION:
A small ice cream parlour down the street which serves over 20 different kinds of ice creams with all new flavours and colours. Making you experience from sweet to salty, from fruuity to chocolatey, from coffee to even dragon breath! This place will never stop surprising!



WHAT WE HAD:

  • KAIRI PUDINA:

A very different green coloured ice cream having the exact taste of kairi pudina. The salty, spicy, sour flavour of pudina will give you a nice ride to your childhood summer days!
    INR: 120
    BLOGGER'S OPINION: Something that will take you back in time!




  • GUAVA:

A pink coloured ice cream scoop made with real guava, sugar syrup and little pinch of pink food colour. That light pink colour will give a relief to your eyes and the subtle fruity taste will mesmorize you.
     INR: 120
     BLOGGER'S OPINION: Sit back and enjoy it! It's worth it!





  • TIRAMISU:

If expecting that it's a cake, then you are wrong. It's a cake ice cream made with coffee, vanilla beans, vanilla syrup, sugar and pieces of tiramisu cake. The thick brown colour of the ice cream comes from the ingredients used, no extra food colour applied to it.
     INR: 140
     BLOGGER'S OPINION: If you love coffee and cake, then surely this is your thing!




  • DRAGON BREATH:

This is the ultimate dessert that one can expect! This is the speciality of this place. The most attractive dessert! Dragon breath is a platter served with pieces of cakes with a cup of liquid nitrogen! The cake pieces are first dipped in the liquid nitrogen once and then put inside the mouth in one go! The smokes then starts coming out from your mouth!
    INR: 180
    BLOGGER'S OPINION: Day is incomplete if you don't try this!





EXTRA MENTIONS: 
This place gives you options of different add ons on your desired ice creams. So if ever think normal ice cream scoop is not enough, then definitely try the various toppings of your own choice!




CONCLUSION:
A lovely place with great ambience and colourful decor. A good place to hang out with friends and close ones! They even treat you with chocolates on your first visit and asks for a review for their 'Review Wall'.

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...
