Started in 2005 by a pastry chef with a rich resume but no previous experience in Indian cuisine, Lassi has become one of NYC’s most renowned places for the sweet or salty yogurt delicacy. Owner Heather Carlucci-Rodriguez serves flavors like mango, coconut, rose, cardamom, coffee, lemon, salty and vanilla. And she must be doing something right because New York Magazine named Lassi “Best Take-Out” in 2006, describing the chilled shake as “dependency inducing.” CitySaheli’s favorites include the cardamom lassi for its freshness and the mango lassi for its sweet fruity flavor! So whether you’re in the mood for a cold lassi on your busy lunch break, or your house party calls for lots of iced fruit shakes, have as many lassis as you wish delivered straight to your door!
