Slurp On Ice-Cold Kulfis & Chuskis From South Ex's Famous Charan Singh!

In the midst of the hustle and bustle of the city that is Delhi, we found a story, a man, who was fulfilling his dreams and how! Charan Singh, the famous kulfi guy in South Ex II is no more than a street side van serving the most awesome desserts possible.

A small, dilapidated white van is parked right opposite the rich showrooms of designer clothes, banks minting money, and restaurants peeling money off unsuspecting customers but everyone gets united standing in queue to eat at Charan Singh’s hide hole. We tried a lot of things at this famous vendor and we’ve charted for you our top fave yummies:

Paan Kulfi

The name itself is just so tempting! So there’s paan in a kulfi and needless to say, we went ga ga over it! The sweet quotient in the kulfi is perfect and not overpowering like most other places, while the taste of the paan is as fresh and amazing as ever. We suggest you start your kulfi extravaganza with this Paan Kulfi!

Price | Rs 80

Mangostep Kulfi

Intrigued by the name, we promptly ordered one for ourselves! And boy was it anything less than a super star?! With kulfi neatly and perfectly tucked inside a whole mango (omg!), this entire combination wins the prize for the most innovative kulfi ever! With pictures of his Mangostep Kulfi doing the rounds on the Internet, we loved gorging on this bad boy in reality.

Price | Rs 130 

Kulfi Faluda

You know how most of the commercial places overpower their faloodas with rose syrup and too much sweetness?! Well, Charan Singh defies every such place and makes one of the best Kulfi Faludas in Delhi hands down! A simple malai badam kulfi which is topped with sugary, yummy faluda and served with a pinch of probably Roohafza and that guys, is what does the trick! The best thing we tried at this place, and definitely recommended for y’all.

Price | Rs 80

Kala Khatta Chuski

And here comes something we know you’d never say no to! Also known as chuski or barf ka gola, this guy really knows his stuff. Adding a lot of homemade masala and lemon juice squeezed on top of the frozen crushed ice, we loved dipping our golas in the lip-smacking maroon red preparation! Go and quench your thirst today itself, Delhiites!

Price | Rs 60

Dahi Bhalle

Something which looked very appealing at the sight of it, we indulged in a plate of this chaat in the killing heat! Charan Singh prepares the bhalla by adding curd, imly chutney and home ground spices. We would say that it was a chaat befitting the establishment’s reputation.

Price | Rs 40

So here we are giving our final verdict on Charan Singh Kulfi and Kala Khatta - we simply adored and loved the place! The guy has set up his van on the road itself in the parking lot of South Ex II but that does not stop him from whipping up something truly divine and lip smacking and neither should it stop us from passing him by without lending our taste buds to this talented vendor! Swing by soon?!
