The best ices in Delhi? It’s a big claim, but these are kulfis with a pedigree.
The Kuremal family have been making kulfi in the old city since 1908 when Pandit Kuremal left his ancestral village in Haryana at the age of 8 to seek fame and fortune in the big city. He learned the kulfi business in an Old Delhi Halwai (sweet shop) and by the time he was 14 had his own pushcart selling just one flavour: plain rabri. Word spread and over the next 40 years Kuremal built the business to a multi-cart affair.
Location: 546, Kucha Pati Ram, Bazaar Sitaram. Mahavir Prasad’s elder brother, Mohan Lal has a shop directly opposite Duli Chand in the same lane. That shop is almost always shut, since they focus entirely on their catering business. To reach Mahavir Prasad’s shop, you need to walk a little further into the lane. Map Location.
Prices: About Rs. 25 per kulfi, but varies according to type and flavour.
Timings: Erratic, but generally open between 1pm and 9pm.
