Yum!
The place to go for my chocolate fix. Death by Chocolate is delish! But soon I was unable to consume the DBC so I switched to the Cake Fudge, which is yummy too.
I'll give it a 4/5 because I don't know much about their other offerings.

As Bangalore as you can get ..
Okay, here's the thing. If you grew up in the 80's , Corner House at Residency Road ( below Nagarjuna ) was IT.
Their Cheese Sausage pizza has gone into oblivion as have their famed submarines, but nobody, absolutely nobody can mess with their signature Vanilla Ice Cream with Hot Chocolate Fudge. They are certainly variants like the Death by Chocolate , and their famed Peach Melba, but its the Chocolate Fudge that has been a icon , and an unchangingly fabulous one , in the years past . What is so special about this ? One does not describe it . One simply must imbibe.
In some ways Corner House must always remain , in whatever avatar , as the place one grew up with . Its a concept , not a place. A convivial and spirited chat with owner Narayan Rao over the counter is always the icing on the cake. He is the quintessential old Bangaloarean like the rest of us. Loves the city , re invests in it , and reflects its never say die spirit .

Not my kind of Ice Cream
Being a die-hard haagen-dazs fan can be difficult in Bangalore - especially if a select few flavors are available at Spar. However, I can settle for the Baskin Robins or the Cream &Fudge Factory's combos in the meantime. But (and there's always a but-), I wouldn't recommend the diluted quality of Corner House Ice creams to anyone I know.
I tried the highly recommended "Death By Choc" at multiple locations, then switched to the regular scoops and a few other options - but alas! Maybe "Corner House" has become more of a cult in Bangalore. Either way, I guess it's just not my kind of ice cream :)

The Best?
This place has completely lost its essence. The ice-creams just aren't that good anymore. For what it costs i would even say its not worth it. Everything they have is covered with chocolate sauce or "fresh" cream or something gooey looking. However mouthwatering that may sound, its not. I can barely taste the ice-cream anymore. I agree they have a variety of ice-creams but essentially they are all the same thing with, i say it again, a different topping.
The point of an ice-cream is for it to be creamy, smooth and arouse your taste buds, leaving you wanting 'just one more scoop'. They don't get this. Apart from it being crowded, they hike the price every few months, making them really not worth the money.
Baskin robins has still not lost its charm. If you want to try something new, try Flavours, one at garuda mall and one just off ulsoor lake near photo flash. Or try the new in thing, Getalo!
Cheers and ...burrp!
