As I have written in the past, I enjoy trying out different chocolate desserts and I am always on a lookout for new places. Two weeks back I was out with my friend and took that opportunity to check out Café Liquiteria.
On entering the café one of the staff informed us that it is closed for maintenance and will open at 5 pm, I was a bit irritated because no such thing was mentioned on their Facebook as I had checked it the night before and their opening time stated on their page is 3 pm. I had reached there at 4:30 pm. Before I could leave the staff returned and said that we can sit and they will serve us. I was quite delighted to hear that.
Coming to their menu, it caters a lot of variety of drinks and the two most prominent items on their menu are monster shakes and chocolate pani puri. So we went ahead with ordering Strawberry Monster Shake and Chocolate Pani Puri.

Strawberry Monster Shake
A mason jar glass filled with strawberry shake, a donut on top, and topped with a scoop of blueberry ice cream. I’d say in order to try their monster shake you should go there on an empty stomach or else you won’t be able to finish it all and it would be a loss if you don’t. The blueberry ice cream together with the strawberry shake tasted delicious and I wasn’t able to get enough of it. I’d suggest that you drink the shake first because drinking the shake in the end will make it feel less sweet.

Chocolate Pani Puri
Chocolate Pani Puri was my most favourite of that day. Six chocolate coated puris are served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, pineapples, strawberries and bunties. You can fill your puri with different fillings every time, dip it in the chocolate sauce and take it all in your mouth. As the puri bursted in my mouth and as I tasted the chocolate sauce I felt so good. This is a must try item from Café Liquiteria’s menu.

Overall the two items that I have tried so far tasted delicious. The ambiance is average because during the time I was there, the lighting wasn’t proper nor was the air conditioner working which made us feel quite hot. The pricing is a bit on higher side because you can eat a proper meal with that amount but then it is not every day that you go to a dessert bar to try high calorie desserts.
I am looking forward to visiting them again particularly to try their Doughnut Ice Cream Cake.
