Waffle with blueberry and strawberry ice cream from Brownice. The waffle was as humble as a bespectacled, holey singlet-wearing ten-year-old who helps his father out at a char kway teow stall at Whampoa Drive Food Centre, while the vegan, organic ice cream was surprisingly enjoyable – the blueberry was like…
Thin and crispy waffle topped with matcha soft serve from The Cold Pantry. The matcha soft serve was milky with a tinge of bitterness, the chocolate cookie serves as a competent partition and the waffle delivers what is promised on the label, albeit being faintly reminiscent of waffles of the…
Soft serve froyo on waffle from Twenty Grammes. Essentially Yami yogurt going to a Tanjong Pagar bar and drunk karaoke-warbling Sunday Folks’ song. The waffle (competent when paired with Twenty Grammes’ unique ice cream) was here strangely dryer than the Mojave Desert – neither the firm yogurt nor the thin…
Chocolate root beer flavoured waffle from The Cold Pantry – served with charcoal vanilla ice cream and drizzled with homemade root beer sauce. The rather black-faced vanilla ice cream — perhaps so coloured after experiencing wretched and tragic betrayal in a Wuxia (武侠) novel — was restrained in its milkiness…
Snowflake waffle with earl grey and hazelnut roche ice cream from Rabbit Owl Depot. Justifiably earns its stripes as one of the better-tasting and more memorable waffles around, which goes to show that a waffle – or indeed any food item – can look striking and dramatic (read: “instagrammable”) and yet…
Slow roasted chicken breast with bacon and maple cream on meringue waffle from Grin Affair. The waffles tasted very old school and neighbourhoody (in a good way), while the tender chicken probably had a good midday swim in a hotdog brine pool before arriving. Bacon and maple were rather calefare-esque.…
Earl grey and honeyscotch ice cream with waffle from Twenty Grammes. The waffle tasted like it had a good roll in the hay with a hotdog (!!) prior to arriving, and was crispy on the outside and soft and bready on the inside. The earl grey was irresistibly fragrant whilst…
“Foot-long” fried karaage chicken & waffles. The white Béchamel sauce reminded me of the vanilla cream in the middle of those long buns we used to get from neighbourhood bakeries, and it went well with the rather dry pancake-esque waffles. The chicken karaage should give tuition to other joints serving fried…
Red velvet waffle with pandan kaya and lychee rose ice cream. The waffle had crispy edges but was a warm cross between sticky goo and bread on the inside, with an ever so faint bitterness. Whilst the lychee rose was fragrant, creamy and competent, I very much preferred the pandan…
