One of Kolkata’s most popular Chinese restaurant chains, Chowman has an all new dessert menu. Chowman MD Debaditya Chaudhury’s recent travels to China, where he sampled desserts in modern dining settings, have inspired the creations. The selection features chocolate and fruit flavours in a variety of ways. All priced at Rs 245, the new selection is available across Chowman outlets in all cities

If you are someone who prefers less sweet desserts and/or are a fan of coffee, try the Coffee Parfait. The creamy layers of coffee have the bold flavours of a cuppa, and are balanced with a layer of chocolate and a hint of salted caramel for that burst of indulgence

Chowman’s White Chocolate Mousse with Darsaan elevates the quintessential ‘crispy honey noodles’ — the name by which most Indian kids know ‘darsaan’ — with a light, whipped white chocolate mousse, topped with honey-tossed ‘darsaan’ and a sprinkle of white sesame seeds for an added crunch

Speaking about crafting the new menu, Subhankar Maity, lead chef of Chowman Rajarhat, said that the desserts are united with a similar base profile, which helps the restaurant put forth the best type of dessert in the shortest preparation time. ‘However, each of these desserts require a preparation time of six to seven hours to get the right textures and balance of flavours as per the recipe of our head chef,’ he added
