Venue: L Block, Outer Circle, Connaught Place
Our childhood associates ice cream carts as harbingers of summer. While the ice cream vendors play a very important role in the scheme of things, ice cream parlors are an alternative for people who prefer a café atmosphere. To this end, Naturals is an ice cream chain from Mumbai that has now forayed in the Delhi markets. At the onset of summer, we found their CP outlet bustling with customers.
This chain claims that they use all natural ingredients – milk, sugar and fruits. Slightly skeptical, we order the Tender Coconut and Kala Jamun. One spoon and we realize that these are not tall claims. The ice creams are moderate on sweetness and high on the fruit quotient, fruit chunks / pulp coming in the mouth with every spoon. The consistency is smooth and it does not seem as if any preservative has gone into this.
We then order roasted almond – and anjeer – and another round of tender coconut – and watermelon – and coffee walnut to end it with malai.
And that is just for the two of us. 🙂
The menu is split into “seasonal fruits” and “round the year” varieties. In our opinion – the Tender Coconut is the star this summer. However their regular flavours – Anjeer or Coffee Walnut or Roasted Almond are different from the fare that we otherwise get.
Situated adjacent to Haldiram in L Block Connaught Place, they have decent sitting arrangement on two floors. This goes into our Hall of Fame.
