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!!

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.

Population : Potential of any economy to thrive lies in its people, Population thus holds biggest Poten...

Upcycle Concrete

  Upcycle is an interesting "GREEN" practice nowadays followed by many!! For goods and commodities its good, but in the era of shifting sands, preferences, fast evolutionary changes, the need and demand for more excitement the malls, unlike old markets, have a very short life span. A decade is quite long, then they slowly organically fade out. Ahmedabad, unlike the metros is quick silver. The life span of malls is shorter than those in metros.. few which have swept off infront of our eyes in two decades are; Gulmohar, Fun Republic, Gallops etc. Gallops though with best brands, infrastructure couldn't survive the cost concious market. Two days ago I happened to step into Iscon mega Mall, Mega like the word suggests, its gigantic. Reliance hyper market was inaugurated on 15th August 2006 by Sh Mukesh Ambani, it was his big bang entry into retail segment. In this mega structure, today hardly 10% area is functional, rest is all unused.  If Westside and Reliance are functional...
