Lavonne Ice Cream Kitchen grew out of the pastry academy’s Late Night Scoops pop-ups. From chef Vinesh Johny and the Lavonne team, LICK carries that experimental approach into gelato, sorbets and layered sundaes, with flavours such as burnt honey toasted vanilla extending familiar starting points. Its Indiranagar shop makes the kitchen part of the setting: an open production zone sits within a pink interior, beneath sprinkle-shaped lights. Outside, perforated metal panels and a triangular canopy frame the entrance.
good focus on fruit based icecreams. got "no added sugar" options - mango sorbet, high protein dark chocolate, high protein peanut butter.

A gifted ice-cream maker and lockdown experiments were the starting point for ulo, which began in a Bengaluru home kitchen. Its early small-batch repertoire treated desserts and breakfast as material for scoops: cereal milk with honey-butter cornflakes, or brown butter with caramelised bacon and pecans. The delivery venture later opened a shop on Indiranagar’s 6th Main. Seasonal flavours and collaborations continue the experimentation, with names such as Murder in the Snow and Double D’oh carrying the same playful approach into the display.
more focus on dry fruit based than regular fruits. around 6-8% air in the icecream, very flavour forward. people tend to also like their cones.

Lakeview takes its name from an earlier home overlooking Ulsoor Lake. Started by James Meadow Charles in 1930 and bought by Vrajlal Jamnadas in 1947, the business later moved to MG Road, where its story became entwined with Bengaluru’s late-night drive-in ice-cream culture. Ice cream remains at the centre, alongside a café repertoire of cakes, pastries, burgers and pizzas. The MG Road parlour carries a family history that spans ice-cream carts, an expanded bakery and successive generations of the Vakharia family.
