Keventers | The Dubai Mall
We knew we could always trust Keventers to keep us happy with their milkshakes, but now we can count on them to refresh us with their mojitos and satisfy our sweet tooth cravings with their sundaes too.
Last evening we decided to check out the Keventers branch that is newly opened at The Dubai Mall. Although we were a little scared about the possibility of a Zombie apocalyse (read: super sale), we still took the plunge and survived. Located on the 2nd floor food court near Reel cinemas, this outlet although a petite one, has a lot of thought put into it in terms of design and spacing. The display counter instantly shouts out the new items on their menu like mojitos and desserts. And the fact that you can take all those bottles and jars home is more than wonderful.
To start off with drinks, we decided to try out the newbie Passion Fruit Mojito, alongside the classic (and my favorite) Pina Colada Milkshake. The mojito with its fizzy fruit taste was simply fab. And the milkshake was divine. They have an entire dictionary of milkshake flavors from chocolaty to nutty and fruity, but if you haven’t tried pina colada, you’re missing out on a lot. Moreover one thing I love about their milkshakes is that the milk is really light and doesn’t feel too thick or heavy. The mojitos are available in a selection of flavors too, so you can take your pick from sweet or tangy.
Then there was their ‘new-on-the-menu’ dessert. Title Retro Romance Sundae, this jar of goodness came with a chocolate sponge base topped with its forever love vanilla ice cream and finished with a drizzle of chocolate and caramel sauces and chocolate chips.
Like most people in this world, we were torn apart between ordering waffles or pancakes so we decided to go with both. First, we indulged in a Double Chocolate Waffle with Nutella and chocolate sauce. What we loved about the waffle is that it neither turned soggy after a while, nor did it taste dry. The Nutella drizzle added so much chocolate oomph to this humble bake. And since we couldn’t practically leave out the pancakes, we went with the Red Velvet ones. These mini pancakes were garnished with lots of Nutella and shiny edible beads which added a magical feel to it – almost like eating something from a fairytale.
At the end of it all, we luckily managed to finish the waffle and pancakes, but since we don’t believe in wasting food, we packed our milkshake and sundae to go. Now I’m just wondering what would be the best use of the sundae jar once I am done devouring all that chocolate goodness inside.
