Haagen Dazs has been a favorite Ice Cream brand of mine for quite a long while. Four months ago in Johannesburg i remember dragging somebody or other from the CSK (including our own M.S.D and his Missus ) to the Haagen Dazs parlour every evening at the Sandton Mall. I have done that to my wife and daughter whenever we have traveled abroad.

So when I had an invite to check out the Newly launched Haagen Dazs premium lounge in Chennai. I jumped at the offer. The one thing I noticed is that the ambience is lovely and is obviously pretty uniform the world over. They have the Displays on the Right as you enter and the seating on the other side.
The people around were busy sampling the ice creams. I went straight for the Belgian Chocolate It is sort of my ice cream barometer test of Goodness. It tasted Yumm (as usual)...and convinced me that they are obviously importing the ice cream since the taste seems to be consistent with what I have had in any part of the world.
