Falsa lovers will find the Falsa with Black Salt sorbet by Saydyz irresistible
The words icy and chilled more or less sum up the vocabulary needed when dining in summer. You want your fruit chilled and your water icy. When you sit down for dinner, you may want your meal hot but the room a comfortable degree of cold. You want heavenly delights like ice-cream all day long (ideally sitting in the freezer) and when your energy level dips lower than Nicki Minaj’s neckline, you know you need to be in cold, sweet heaven..
There are countless ice cream, frozen yoghurt and sorbet options in the city but if you’re living in Karachi then you need to have Saydyz on speed dial. Saydyz who? Well, people frequenting Karachi Eat this year are already a fan of this home delivery service that’ll bring you one of the best homemade sorbets and gelatos in town.
Saydyz was launched in 2014 as a small, homespun operation and has been steadily growing to the proportions it enjoys today. Sadia, the entrepreneurial mastermind behind the brand, says that quality and reinvention keeps the brand alive and increasingly popular. We ordered and sampled a number of options over the weekend, out of which the Falsa with Black Salt sorbet was the unanimous favourite. Falsa lovers – and is there anyone who isn’t – will find it irresistible. The
coffee gelato was another winner while the odd flavor combo of Kayree with Schezuan Peppers was indeed odd yet interesting. It would be an acquired taste and not an instant hit. The kids loved Watermelon and Lime as well as the Chocolate gelato whereas the Thai Style Coconut would have been blissful with slivers of mango.
At PKR 500 for half a litre (that serves two because you can’t control kids when they attack ice cream and sorbets), Saydyz does not come cheap but for the quality and convenience it offers (we ordered at 11pm and got our goodies well in time for a midnight snack), it is well worth it.
