Review written during COVID-19, walkin order.
Thank you to everyone for showing up and helping out at such times! These treats really make our days just that much brighter.
Overall: Great place to get a variety of ice cream. Note the ice creams do contain eggs. Only their vegan flavors are pure vegetarian.
Flavors: Falooda and Pistachio / Cardammom
The flavors were REALLY good - you can tell they have mastered their recipe.
At first bite you really feel the consistency of the milk. The whole flavor, that evenly coats your tongue and holds in the ice cream flavor. But doesn't leave the slimey feel, or weird after taste.
Our flavors had just the right amount of sweetness (which I think causes the after taste). They were also not over powering - not too rosey, isn't overloaded with the basil seeds. Nor was the cardammom over powering in taste, and you were able to taste the pistachio, which is hard to get out without the essence.
We didn't understand why there was a huge line with Niles Ice Cream and not here - as the prices are comparable. And the tastes are probably cleaner, and still get the variety.
Definitely will...
Read moreWe pre-ordered pickup through Grubhub, for a pint size of custard apple/sitaphal and rose flavor.
The shop is located among a group of other restaurants, with a small park and parking lot right opposite. If not for COVID, the location is ideal for a weekend icecream getaway as you can sit outside in the park and enjoy the dessert.
While picking up our order, we also bought cone icecream. I had my favorite chocolate with chocolate chip icecream and it was really yummy. My husband bought falooda and again it too was really good.
Custard apple flavor was beyond words and you can actually taste the natural fruit. It looked like vanilla icecream, but a single spoon will reveal the flavor.
Rose flavor looked like strawberry icecream, but again its the pure flavor that stands in our mouth.
PS: Our Grubhub order seemed to have been picked up by someone else. But we got our pint size icecream when we showed our email receipt. I would recommend not ordering for pickup and just go there directly and order...
Read moreLikely the best spot to get ice cream in Fremont. The only challenge you'll face here is the number flavors offered most of which are delicious. In general I loved the bold flavoring in everything we tried, coffee taste likes coffee and rose like rose. The faloda ice cream which originates from South East Asia is essentially a rose ice cream with other fun ingredients. It was fantastic and will take those familiar with this flavor back to their childhood. Everyone should try the cardamom pistachio, this warm nutty combo is creamy, delicious, and essentially the essence of a courageous ice cream maker. The matcha green tea was also a nice and so was the fudge chocolate. The friendly staff were very helpful with describing the offerings and providing tasting samples. The store itself is spacious and nicely decorated, I would have preferred a little better lighting. Go here! Just eat here, their to-go cups don't have lids. Trying...
