"Malai, NY’s essential ice cream shop with a unique Southeast Asian spin, debuted its first D.C. outpost on Saturday, May 18. Founder Pooja Bavishi brings down best sellers from her 5-year-old Brooklyn flagship like Rose with Cinnamon Roasted Almonds, Masala Chai, and Alphonso mango and cream. In addition to eggless scoops and pints, there’s also ice cream cakes and cream sandwiches, kulfi pops, and soft serve." - Tierney Plumb
