This institution for faloodas (rose-flavoured drinks), sharbats (a chilled drink) and fresh juices may have been born in Bombay, but it's been at it in Pune for four decades as well. It's tough to beat its signature falooda (with cream and dry fruits) or a fresh anar (pomegranate) enjoyed on its pleasant patio on a hot day. Serves heftier Indian meals as well.
