Kulfi is a type of Indian ice cream. It is very difficult to make, and hard to get just the right taste and texture... Kulfi, has got it down! Seriously this small eatery has got its product down. It has a proper intro price point of $4 for the basic kulfi stick. And compared to Baskin Robbins, or other ice creameries, this is right in the same price range. But with the benefit that you're getting something that is not easily found or available in America.
The location is kinda meh. It's in NW Portland, which I would never go to normally. Since it's such a specialty, it seems out of the way, and as far as demographics are concerned, there are many other prime locations for this specialty ice cream in places like Beaverton or Hillsboro. Also, the actual business itself is pretty small. There is only about 100sqft of space, and while they make the most of it, for an ice cream spot, it's less than desirable.
The owner is there, and as you can see, he is happy to be there. He loves his business, his product, and he is great at providing service. Minus the cramped location. The Falooda drink is also delicious. But overpriced. It's hard to justify spending $9 on a single dessert. Although, that is the price of most desserts at a sit down restaurant. While I did share it, as there was enough for 2 people, I still say it's a hard selling point.
I hope that they will be expanding to more locations in the future, but for now, this is a treat that is definitely worth trying at least once.
