DHA Phase 2
4.3 / 5

Frais addresses the primary concern of street food: hygiene. They use mineral water ice and high-quality, imported-style syrups in a clean, air-conditioned environment, making it the 'safe' gold standard for those with sensitive stomachs.

Dogar Gola Ganda

Dhoraji Colony
4.1 / 5

Dogar is the local's choice for consistency. While others might skimp on syrups during peak hours, Dogar is famous for its 'double-soak' method, ensuring the bottom of the cup is just as flavorful as the top.
