'I found little-known UK spot where you can get huge ice cream for bargain price'

More and more it’s getting harder to find small luxuries at a low price. As a result of inflation and the rising cost of living, many people have had to cut back on treats like takeaways or desserts but one London foodie has found a little-known spot in the capital city that sells a huge serving of ice cream for less than £5.

The social media user @london_bite_and_vogue describes herself as a “Desi foodie in London” and she focuses on hunting for vegetarian cuisine and hidden gems in the UK. In a video on TikTok, she showed an enormous soft serve ice cream cone that would be perfect to enjoy today (Sunday, July 20) as it is National Ice Cream Day.

The clip shows the foodie using an ice cream machine to get two towering ice cream cones with different colours.

It has gained significant attention with 525,800 views, 15,600 likes and more than 250 comments, at the time of writing.

Although the TikTok user didn’t say where she got the huge ice cream from, a user in the comments section revealed that it is from Kabul Korner restaurant and takeaway in Harrow, London.

The eatery shared a post on Instagram promoting its huge ice cream cones where it stated that a single is £2.50 and a double is £3.50.

This is quite reasonable as according to Park Holidays, the average price for a Mr Whippy in London is £4.10 per ice cream cone.

Kabul Korner offers ice cream in various flavours, including mango and pistachio. Viewers who saw the TikTok video by the “Desi foodie” were shocked at the price of the ice cream.

One said: “Omg that can’t be £2.” Another called it a “bargain” and a third viewer commented: “In Italy it will cost you 40 euros each.”

A seemingly big fan of the chilled dessert chimed in: “Omg yes please I’ll take 4.”

Others highlighted the appearance of the ice cream as one viewer noted: “That actually looks so pretty.”

However, some people in the comments section weren’t keen on the size of the ice cream.

A viewer remarked: “No thanks, way too big. I will stick with the regular ones, plus this is sugar overload!”

Another questioned: “Who could eat all that ice cream?” Some viewers found humour in how big the ice cream is.

One joked: “This will take me a whole day to finish. By the time I finish it it’s gonna be all over my clothes!”

Someone who has tried the Kabul Korner giant ice cream shared: “Been to this place. To start eating this ice cream from a respectable position, you have to hold it down in your ankles.”

A different viewer gave a suggestion: “Bring a large Tupperware so you can put the ice cream and cone in there. And share with friends and family. And save it from falling on the floor.”

While a giant soft serve ice cream cone might not be everyone’s idea of a great summer dessert, this treat from Kabul Korner is ideal for budget-conscious foodies or those who want something a bit different to a regular ice cream.
