If you’re reading this, you’ve probably curled up with a tub of ice cream (or planning to after work tonight). We’ve got a love-hate relationship with desserts (those calories do matter), but we’re focusing on the love. From jar cakes to popsicles, here are the best places for dessert in Chennai. 

Häagen-Dazs

There’s no doubt Häagen-Dazs tops this list, and if you’re having second thoughts, you must try their Macadamia nut ice cream. Their signature flavours (Belgian Chocolate, Summer Berries & Cream), the richness of the ice cream, and the sweet decor make this a must-visit.

This dessert lab took us by surprise when they first opened - they have pani puri and popcorn ice cream and make-your-own options, which are endless! We’re talking flavours like Candyland (bubble gum flavoured ice-cream). Also, they use liquid Nitrogen in some of their desserts, which is quite a sight to see.
