Imagine my delight when I discovered a branch of my favourite Indian ice cream chain around the corner from my hotel in Bangalore. At the South Mumbai location I once ordered scoop after scoop until they stopped asking me to pay; so excited were they at my intense enjoyment that they just kept bringing me scoops of all flavours in the shop just to watch my reactions. I just learned they were born the same year as me. “Way back in 1971, when ice cream was still a commodity meant for the elite, Mr. Nemchand Shah guided by his early customers, ventured into the business of ice cream making with one motto – 'To make ice creams using fresh fruits/dry fruits, milk and sugar'. Without using any artificial ingredients or preservatives, he created ice creams manufactured in wooden contraptions called sanchas. Such was the origin of one of the most premium ice cream brands of South Mumbai – Apsara Icecreams.” #apsara #apsaraicecreams #apsaraicecream (at Apsara)
