8th Day Cafe & Bakery: If you are in or around Mullick Bazar, Hindustan Park or Salt Lake, and if you love espresso and ice cream, the much-loved 8th Day has a regular Affogato at Rs. 249 and a Brownie Sundae Affogato at Rs. 289. We suggest starting with a Tree-Layer Tortilla with some good ol’ Chicken Caesar Salad, and ending with one of the affogato picks

Binge on all things sweet, starting with Affogato and moving on to their lemony Cheesecake and redeem all the calories you lost making it through the (in)famous shopping ‘bheed’
