Today I'll be talking about my lil experience visiting this small-highly popular ice cream cafe at rangoon road [yes! Highly popular -- even with Indonesian food bloggers]. Guessed it right? The Cold Pantry. [that's what the title say, isn't it? #lol]
I planned to write about this after my 1st visit [cause honestly i didn't know if i i will ever come back] but now, I'm glad that i haven't.
Why? cause if i did, i'll only have 1 menu to write about! [at least i have 2 now] XD
This was the reason i first visited the cafe:
Chocolate Root Beer [S$12.50] Chocolate flavoured waffle with cake like texture, served with charcoal vanilla ice cream, drizzled with -- the amazing -- homemade chocolate root beer sauce. |
Plus, I like how the cashier explained to me -- in advance -- my order to make sure i know what am i ordering. In this case, she told me that the chocolate waffle was the cake-is kind, not the very crispy kind. I personally find that this kind of little things MATTERS. It gets you thinking "they're not trying to trick you".
Taste wise, it's AAAAWEEESSSSOOOOMEEEE!!! that root beer sauce was brilliant!! Unexpectedly compliments the whole thing very well.
Indeed, that very menu was also the one that brought me back.
This time, they've added some more interesting creations, they're so good, why bother question their new babies? BUT we only wanted to order 2, so we asked about her -- the cashier -- opinion regarding Pink Velvet and Lavender, she told us that their lavender soft serve is kinda a bit too flower-ish for guys, but it's highly popular with girls. Then she kindly gave us a bit of the lavender soft serve, and again -- she knows what she's selling. #yourawk!
And this:
Pink Velvet [S$14.00] Rose infused crispy waffle, served with luscious [charcoal] Lychee Ice Cream, topped with lychee and fruit loops |
Pretty, isn't it?
Honestly when i read the description, i didn't expect the lychee soft serve will appears in black as well..
here's some more pics of us enjoying both of our orders.
If you notice, they have replaced their old waffle machine with the new -- rectangle -- one. [personally, i like the round one better tho, but.. nobigdeal, ya?]
As expected, the Pink Velvet was beautiful -- for both your camera, and tastebuds. Lychee soft serve was light, refreshing, not overly sweet, texture was sssoooo smooth... lychee and fruit loops? Yes please!
Now i have 2 reasons to come back.
Now i have 2 reasons to come back.
Honestly, I would say the price range wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but if you just like to try something nice, and have somebody who love the idea of sharing dessert [cause..you know, share the calories thing.] this would be a great place to visit.
Here are some other snaps i took during the visit:
Since it's not exactly very noticeable, here's how the outside look like. download, capture, anything. just don't miss it! :)
