It’s almost the end of a long and hot summer but writing about this place has been on my mind since quite a while.  Today I would like to share with you a fantastic artisanal ice cream place that I absolutely loved & would definitely like everyone to give a try!

I present Glocal offering (Global yet local favours) from the house of Sammey’s Ice Creams, located on lane 8, Koregaon Park.

The offering – So, they have been constantly evolving and have come up with new flavours all the time. Coincidentally, they are  also running an ‘Around the World’ Campaign where they introduce a new flavour associated with a particular country’s native cuisine each month. They offer unique flavours like Biscoff, Marshmallow, Milk & Cookies, Maple & Pecan, Jamun Sorbet, Dark Chocolate Cherry Sorbet and Very Berry Sorbet. They also have got more accessible flavours like Kerala Vanilla Bean, Notorious Chocolate, Notorious Velvet, Strawberry Swirl, and Salted Caramel. And of course, they have always been eager to include seasonal or festive favourites like Mango, Jalebi, and Toasted Coconut with Jaggery– which is their take on a Modak flavour.

The story: for the creators Sumair and Lakham who have completed their education from the Culinary Institute of America. During their course, they were quick to pick up on several colloquial quips; one of them being the word ‘Sammey’. It’s basically the American slang for an Ice Cream Sandwich. As they were  integrating a Philadelphian style with their ice creams, they figured Sammey’s was the way to go. Also I can see that they take great care in making their own ice cream cookie sandwiches.

Ice Cream has always been a fascinating concept for them and they wanted to spearhead a unique brand that delivers on richness, quality, and authenticity. It’s this very motivation that led them to coin the term ‘notoriously creamy’.

Then they also have one of our most recent bestsellers- the Maple & Pecan Ice Cream. As the name suggests, they have managed to mix the best of both worlds to create something that I really haven’t seen in this city till now.

One of my favorites is Jamun Sorbet. It’s the perfect treat for both vegans and non-vegans. They make sure to use the best-picked Jamuns for the process and the final product is so authentic, it’s almost as if ‘you’re biting into a cool, smooth Jamun’.

They opened their 2nd outlet at the Hyatt Regency, where they created an award winning gelato-chocolate hybrid with Paul & Mike.

My favorites are – Jamun sorbet which is the best to have during Summers and the Pecan & Maple ice cream which surely is a global delight!!!

Definitely a must go place to quench all your  Ice Cream fantasies!
