If there’s one topping that’s versatile, tasty and vibrant looking, it is strawberry. From being served as a topping on salads to desserts, this fruit finds its way to our plates in many different ways. Whether you like to have strawberries with whipped cream or you fancy eating them sliced up on your cheesecake, strawberries are truly the king of berries. Actress Janhvi Kapoor seems to be a fan of this fruit too. Her latest Instagram upload is proof enough. Janhvi, who recently wrapped up the Amsterdam schedule of Bawaal, shared a snap of her breakfast platter to her Instagram story. Janhvi’s plate had three dollops of strawberry ice cream, which were sitting on nicely cut strawberries. A drizzle of chocolate sauce on the top pulled the dish together, making it look elegant and aesthetic. “Breakfast for champs,” Janhvi captioned the snap.
This is not the first time that Janhvi has shown love for food served in Amsterdam. The actress was recently vacationing in Amsterdam with her friends and dropped some pictures from the trip. The series of photos shows her exploring the city and going to artsy places. One of the images that caught the attention of all foodies was of the food the actress relished! In one of the pictures, Janhvi can be seen sitting in a beautiful red dress. Nysa Devgan (Kajol and Ajay Devgan's daughter) is also in the picture with two other people. In front of them, you can spot a delicious plate of green salads, two crispy pizzas, some dips, and drinks! In the caption of the post, Janhvi wrote, "#amstagram."
