I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream: A Review of Scream

I’ve always been a die-hard fan of the spine-chilling Scream franchise, reveling in the adrenaline-pumping terror it delivers. But here’s a twist that caught me off guard – a little scoop of excitement! You heard that right – there’s an ice cream shop named “Scream” right here in Karachi. 

Now, you might be wondering if this Scream has anything to do with the iconic horror series. I must admit, there’s not a ghost-faced killer lurking in the shadows, nor any masked psychopaths serving scoops of terror. But apart from the name, there’s only one thing in common: the screams. 

Oh yes, there were screams at the Scream ice cream shop, but were they the blood-curdling cries of terror or the joyous shouts of ice cream ecstasy? Stick around and find out – the scoop is just a scream away! Oh, and don’t worry; I promise to leave out any spoilers from the latest Scream movie.

So, what’s on the Menu?

The sweet, juicy peaches seemed to have been kissed by summer itself. It was light and oh-so-fruity. With each spoonful, I could almost feel the sun shining on my face, and I couldn’t help but smile.

The pricing seemed to strike the perfect balance, neither soaring too high nor sinking too low – it was just right. I was delighted to find that Scream had something to offer for everyone – the prices were on par with Karachi’s ice cream shops. It was a place where students, families, and friends could come together, sharing the joy of ice cream without any financial barriers.

For those on a budget, there were pocket-friendly options that promised to delight without burning a hole in the wallet. And for those who wanted to indulge a bit more lavishly, there were premium choices that offered a touch of extravagance. But what truly impressed me was that despite the reasonable pricing, there was no compromise on the quality of the ice cream.

Service: Made with Love

Scream took ice cream to a whole new level by using liquid nitrogen to freeze their concoctions. It was a spectacle to watch as they poured the liquid nitrogen into the mix, creating mesmerizing clouds of vapor that seemed to dance around the ice cream. The result? The coolest and smoothest ice cream ever, with a texture so heavenly it felt like a dream.

I couldn’t help but notice the service that accompanied this frozen bliss. The staff members were friendly and attentive, always ready with a warm smile to assist with any questions or flavor recommendations. While the service might not have been a jaw-dropping “wow” experience, it was far from disappointing. It struck the right balance.

Accessibility: Hippy in Town

Scream had two branches in Karachi – one in Gulshan and the other at Khayaban-e-Sehar. While it might not have been as widely spread as some other restaurants in the city, it certainly made up for it with its distinct charm and character. Each branch had its own laid-back and welcoming ambience, making it a joy to visit.

What impressed me was that Scream didn’t just stop at physical locations; it was determined to bring happiness right to our doorsteps. Plus, I must admit, it was a relief to find Scream listed on FoodPanda as well. This meant that whenever my ice cream cravings hit hard, I could simply whip out my phone, browse through their menu on the FoodPanda app, and have the goodness delivered to me in no time.
