Diabetes is
indeed one of the most commonly complained health conditions nowadays. No
wonder almost every 1 out of 5 people in the family is afflicted by diabetes
and unfortunately the remedy is a huge bag of medicines and saying no, no to
sweets. But Kudos to Manoj and Seema Pinto, who with their personal experiences
and enthusiastic sprees was able to come up with something new, innovative and
a perfect remedy for all those diabetes lovers who just cannot live without
desserts. Welcome to the diabetic food Trail, a journey that was the creation
of these two geniuses who believed that even a diabetic person can also feed on
desserts, only and only if they are enough healthy.
Delhi happened to witness such a healthy Diabetic
Dessert Trail wherein several food bloggers were invited and were taken to
different deliciously famous food joints. And then the surprise unveils. You
come across scrumptious desserts and they are not diabetic, well, we mean, they
are healthy and made in a manner to take care of all your diabetic safety measures.
The journey started with Berco’s , a culinary joint that
has several branches in Delhi. However the Trail was executed in Greater
Kailash Area and thus the branch chosen was Berco’s of Greater Kailash. Berco’s
served two dessert delicacies: Sugar –free caramel custard and Sugar-free Lemon
Cheesecake.
The best parts of these two desserts were that they were
both a compromise on sugar but still they tasted equally delicious. What more
can be a pleasure for a diabetic person who can happen to gorge on such
fabulous dishes without even giving a second thought on the calorie counts?
The next food stop at the Diabetic food trail was
GetAFix. This joint too is a celebrated name in cuisines and everyone was
looking forward to what surprise shall be unveiled from them. GetAFix came up
ith a unique concept of a sugar-free carrot cake and a sugar-free lime pie. A
cake without sugar and that too made of healthy carrots is an unimaginable
affair almost. Lime-pie also offers the same surprise and believe us both were once
again filled with awesome tastes.
The third stop in the Diabetic Food Trail was Bohemia
and I would recommend them to be the best amidst the lot. Being completely
unbiased and impartial, I would give them extra brownie points because of their
sugar-free tiramisu. A deep coating of chocolate, coffee flavors and without
any sugar ingredients, Bohemia has in fact given me one of the best
experiences. The other contribution on the plate was the sugar-free chocolate
fudge.
The last but not the least companion in our food trail
was G’s Patisserie. The sugar-free warm apple and cinnamon cobbler, sugar free
zucchini cake and sugar free banana oats with nutria-choice essentials oats
cookies were the offerings on their behalf. G’s Patisserie happened to gift us
the company of an exclusive chef too, who explained the tit bits of the
delicacies.
