Scoops Amul Ice Cream Parlour

The freezers are always humming here at our place in Ghatkopar 218/8. It’s a sound you get used to after a while. We have the usual Amul crates stacked up near the back door. Most evenings, especially when it’s hot out, the small space at Scoops Amul Ice Cream Parlour fills up fast. People stand around the counter looking at the flavors. We try to keep the glass clean but fingerprints happen all day long. Dealing with ice cream means your hands are usually a bit cold and you’re always reaching into the deep chest freezers. It isn't a massive shop, just enough room for a couple of benches and the display. Sometimes the power goes wonky and we have to worry about things melting, but usually, it's fine. We see a lot of families after dinner. The kids are always the most indecisive, staring at the pictures on the wall for five minutes before picking the same thing they had last week. We don't do anything special, just scoop and serve. It gets messy when the cones drip, but that’s just part of the job. Ghatkopar is a busy area, so there’s always someone walking by who decides they need a cold treat. We just keep the lights on and the lids closed tight. It’s a straightforward business and we like the routine of it. The walk-in traffic keeps us on our toes from noon until we lock up at night.
