Is it a dessert or is it a drink? In a way, it’s both! Falooda, which The Curryer describes as “the Pakistani equivalent of Bubble Tea,” is a tempting treat made with ice cream, vermicelli, jelly, basil seeds and rose syrup. Stop by the Beltline restaurant on a Wednesday to try the specialty drink for 20 per cent off.
