Sri Vijay Ice Cream

Sri Vijay Ice Cream. You’ll find us on S G Barve Road in Kurla East. We’re right in that Rajajinagar Nehru Nagar area, number 1779. It’s a very busy part of the city. The traffic noise never really stops. We spend our days tucked away behind the glass, serving anyone who walks in from the heat. The road outside is always under some kind of repair it seems. We’ve been here long enough to know all the bus routes that go past our door. It’s a small space, so we have to be careful about how we move around. There’s always something that needs fixing, like a light bulb or a handle on one of the coolers. We don’t have any fancy signs or anything. Just the name on the front and the ice cream inside. Most of our customers are locals who live just a few streets away. They know us by name and we know what they usually like. It’s a lot of scooping and packing, day in and day out. We get quite tired by the time we close the shutters at night. The air inside is always a bit cooler than the street, which is a relief for everyone. We’re just a regular shop trying to get through the day like everyone else in Kurla. We stay open late because that's when the families usually come out for a walk and look for something sweet.
