Around (Tampines)

Thick and golden brown waffles are done to a crispy texture on both the inside and outside. I personally prefer waffles that are crispy outside yet fluffy on the inside hence the waffles at Around didn’t appeal to me. Moving on to their gelato where I got myself the strawberry cheesecake and Yakult oreo. I like the strawberry cheesecake where they balance the creamy and savoury flavours well without being overly sweet or cheesy. The Yakult oreo was on the icier side and it kind of fell short on the Yakult flavours 》$15.90 + $1 Premium Flavour

💬 The waffles were thick and crispy (love it), but the ice creams were rather underwhelming. Creamy texture but it tastes nothing like what their name suggests. Alittle disappointed😕

From Top to Bottom:
🍁🍨Maple Ice Cream
🍪🥛Cookies & Cream Ice Cream
🥛🍨Cereal Milk Ice Cream

Crispy waffle topped with lotus biscuit crumbs and maple syrup. Coffee and matcha ice cream, but I feel that the matcha is not as thick.

was a little hard to find this cafe because it is located in the little nooks of tampines but it was one of the most aesthetic cafes i've been to! really like a glasshouse & the aircon was cold & comfy, great for a hot day like today. the waffle was super crispy and fluffy, and it was also flavourful - rly impressed. the ice cream not so much, we got the pistachio & arabica coffee, both of which had rather mild (& a little inaccurate for the coffee) flavours. spent $21.30 including 2 drinks that we paid for in full ($5.90 for the matcha latte, $6.40 for the hazelnut latte) as they're not included under the burpple 1 for 1. the price of the waffle + 2 scoops of ice cream was $9 nett post-discount. would totally be back for the waffles again but would try other ice cream flavours.

Popped by my neighbourhood gelato place @around_sg to finally try 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙖𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙚𝙩 ($15.90), with 2 scoops of gelato with a freshly made waffle sprinkled with speculoos cookie crumbs. 🍪

𝙋𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙤 💚 - Additional $1.00 for this premium flavour and our go-to at this café.
𝘽𝙞𝙨𝙘𝙤𝙛𝙛🍪 - Wasn't a huge fan of this as I felt that the flavours didn't really shine through.
𝙍𝙖𝙨𝙥𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙧𝙮 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙖𝙠𝙚🍓🧀 - Slightly cheesy with a refreshingly light tart berry flavour, this is my 2nd fave flavour after Pistachio.

So while our hearts still lie with the creamy texture of BOP, we're happy to pop by for an 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 gelato anytime!
