I scream for Ice-scream...



Those are the evening chants for Ahmedabad since ages.. from home- made ice-creams to specially crafted versions matching international standards and evolving needs of the new age foodies. The cool breeze in the evenings and booze free state has promoted a culture of sitting out in the open with friends and families and catching up over with ice-creams.



Following this trend, Sankalp, the most renowned chain of South Indian restaurants has recently launched their maiden version, another vertical, a stand-alone brand for desserts, christened as “Screamery”.  Currently the new avatar of “Screamery” is a beautifully designed, colourful kiosk placed at the sprawling lawns of Sankalp, besides Rajpath Club on S. G Highway.

A tasting session was organised for Food Entrepreneurs of Ahmedabad (FEA) Group, attended by Anil Mulchandani, a renowned author; Dilip Thakkar & Raju Thakkar of Gopi Dining,  Sonal Kellog, Darshan Rawal etc. where Atul Budhraja, VP – Operations of Ramada Hotels (another venture under Sankalp), said, “We have observed this trend in Europe where such stand alone kiosks are quite prevalent and is convenient for people to grab a shake or an ice- cream on the go.. Hence, with growing trend of food-trucks in Ahmedabad, this is another model introduced in the F& B industry. We are looking forward to expand, Screamery as a brand under various models, be it franchise or company owned outlets across geographies.”

Mr. Ajay Oza, Head – Softy Division in Sankalp mentioned, “The new brand line, Screamery – An Ice Cream boutique is an innovative approach to serve new age desserts like waffles, thick shakes, sofites, sundaes and much more to give enhanced gourmet experience to ever yearning food connoisseurs.”

Cheesy Manic

The sundaes here are served in waffle baskets, so eat that bowl too and go clean and green.. not leaving a bit JJ. .from being topped with slurpy sauces, to candied versions; all taste awesome!!

The thick shakes at Screamery are a must try ones, as they aren’t icy... but rich and creamy!! Highly recommended is lychee flavour having the real pulp of fruit in it.

I also tried my hands on “Cheese Maniac” – A cheesy blueberry waffle, completely unique, especially for cheese lovers.

Candied Heart throb


We also created ourselves a “Candied Heart Throb” loaded with gems, fruits, strawberry and saffron sauce, ice cream and topped with sandwiched waffles... can we ask for anything better on earth!!

Highly recommended for Amdavadis to head on to a fruity, nutty, saucy and crunchy experience!!

Dubai - The Greener Pastures

Its not just Oil and Gold, a New world economy, booming and buzzing, attracting all global markets to buy home, setup business and live in a place which is now the new Centre of attraction, to setup Global Headquarters. The Millenial tower - Burj Al Arab  Indians have forgotten Canada and US (seems so..) especially after the setting up new Trump norms... so where do all heads turn and why? 1. Distance : Travel time from Delhi to Dubai is 3.5 hours and if we talk about Gujarat, Punjab, Kerala and Maharashtra they are geographically more towards the west, therefore the travel time to The Emirates is even lesser than any other Indian town on the extreme corner. Therefore, Dubai travel is cost effective and easily accessible. 2. Visa : Relaxed norms with consultants from both countries growing in numbers to assist Indians settle in Dubai, both for entrepreneurs and job seekers. 3.

Sands to Skyscrapers: Dubai’s Architectural Marvels

A New Dawn in the Desert By: Kulveen Narula “The future belongs to those who can imagine it, design it, and execute it. It isn't something  you await, but rather create.” — H. H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum A t the turn of the millennium, while the world was celebrating the arrival of Y2K , a quiet revolution had begun brewing in the Middle East. The United Arab Emirates, particularly Dubai , was preparing to reimagine itself—not just as a city but as a symbol of human possibility. From a land once known only for its sands and souks, rose a futuristic skyline that rivals the best on Earth. In just 25 years , Dubai evolved into a global epicentre of design, engineering, and luxury—where the homo sapiens are actually living on Cloud 9, giving us a strong dream etched on sand, which didn't disappear overnight but amplified year on year imparting a twinkle in the eye of millions in the world to light up a dream.  The Visionary Behind the Rise The transformation is no...
