Bengaluru's 'Corner House', founded in 1982, bagged a spot with its death by chocolate ice cream. "The most iconic offering at Corner House is the death by chocolate, which is not so much an ice cream flavour as it is an indulgent sundae layered with cake, ice cream, chocolate sauce, nuts, and topped with a cherry. The richness and depth of chocolate used in this dessert have made it a city-wide favourite," Taste Atlas said.
