Falooda in South Bay or Pasadena

[sarahrcross]

Does anyone know where to get great falooda in LA or Pasadena? I just saw a blog posting and now I have a craving for it.

You can get it from any Persian market with a freezer section. I don't know the South Bay very well. In the San Fernando Valley, the following places have it:

Araz International Market in Granada Hills
Valley Produce in Reseda
Q Market in Reseda
Woodland Hills Market in Woodland Hills

In West LA, I bet Rose Market or any of the Persian markets on Westwood Blvd. would have it.

In Glendale, I'm sure some of the Armenian-Persian markets would carry it.

I don't know of any Persian markets in Pasadena, but maybe others can chime in. :)

Sorry, I just looked at your link, and you want an Indian drink that I know nothing about. I thought you were talking about the Persian frozen dessert that goes with ice cream, i.e., faloodeh.

I bet that you could find the Indian drink in Artesia somewhere. Good luck.

India Sweets and Spices in LA has it:

They have locations in Northridge, Culver City, Tustin, Glendale, Canoga Park, Duarte, San Diego, Fresno, and Thousand Oaks (coming soon). See the link below for exact addresses.

As a side note, I have been to the Glendale location on Los Feliz Blvd. I thought the service was lacking, but the mango lassi I got was okay. I've never tried Indian style falooda. Apparently, it's about $4 at India Sweets and Spices.

You're welcome. Please post, if you go and try it. Also, I hope someone else who knows more about this drink posts to give you other suggestions. :)

Does mashti malone's serve it?

I think Mashti Malone's serves Persian style faloodeh. The poster is looking for something else-- an Indian dessert beverage. :)

Yes, I was just there yesterday and asked -they do not serve the drink, only the ice cream. I have had the drink in Artesia, but boy is that a drive from Pasadena! I guess we have to make our own!
