Sapota/Chikku Milkshake

I have noticed that my son follows a cycle when it comes to drinking milk.....He would gulp down his milk with no fuss for few days; next few days with a litle fuss but still would manage with cornflakes or chocos along with it and finally he would totally refuse it!!! This is when milkshakes come to rescue....I had few home-grown chikkoos with me, which I had brought down when I had gone for holidays.....So, this time the chikkos saved me.....

Moreover, chikko milkshake reminds me of a famous restaurant in Bangalore...I think it was known as Kebab Corner. They were famous for their shawarmas and chikko milkshakes. They had a shop in Jaynagar, which was quite close to our college. We used to go there once in a while to have dinner....They used to serve ice-cold chikko milkshake and it was quite filling tooo!! Ohhhh...how I miss those days....
