Mumbai Cafe TROLLED For Mysore Pak Milk Trend In Viral Video
A Mumbai-based cafe has found itself at the receiving end of ridicule on social media after a viral video showcased its unusual take on the classic Indian dessert, Mysore Pak.
The video, which has been viewed millions of times, shows a barista at the cafe pouring milk into a glass of Mysore Pak, a rich, sweet confection made from gram flour, sugar, and ghee. The move has been widely panned by food enthusiasts and netizens alike, who have taken to social media to express their outrage and disappointment.
"Mysore Pak is a delicate, crumbly delight that's meant to be savored in its pure form," says renowned food critic, Rohan Mathur. "Adding milk to it completely ruins the texture and flavor, making it a sad, soggy mess."
The cafe, which has not been named in this report, has come under fire for its creative twist on the traditional dessert. While some have defended the cafe's decision as an attempt to innovate and appeal to a wider audience, others have called it a blatant disregard for the culinary traditions of India.
"Mysore Pak is a beloved dessert in Indian cuisine, and this cafe's attempt to 'improve' it is a slap in the face to our culinary heritage," says food blogger, Priya Rao. "It's a shame that they would resort to such a gimmick to attract customers."
The cafe has yet to respond to the backlash, but the incident has sparked a wider conversation about the importance of respecting traditional cuisine and the dangers of creative experimentation gone wrong. As one Twitter user succinctly put it, "Don't spoil the sweet."
