We were in the Sembawang Hills area for lunch today and we chanced upon Ice Cream Chefs, which we decided to try for dessert. The cafe had some interesting flavours, including Yuzu Lemon, Kaya Toast and Milo flavours, but we decided to go for something safer - Kyoto Hojicha! This is considered a premium flavour, so you have to pay a dollar more and it costs $4.50!
Unfortunately, we thought the hojicha flavour wasn't nice at all compared to the hojicha scoops served at many other ice cream parlours outside! The taste of hojicha was pretty light and there was this somewhat artificial aftertaste that we are unable to describe, that made the scoop pretty strange.
Heard some great reviews about the other flavours and we might try those instead if we decide to come here again in future!
Chendol ice cream with waffle ($8.30)
Ice cream tasted rather artificial, but waffle was not bad!
Kyoto hojicha ice cream in waffle cone ($4.80 + $1 premium ice cream)
Ice cream is a bit on the sweet side, but that's what desserts are for, right? Waffle cone is crispy and good.
Got their homemade waffle with a scoop of Creme Brûlée and Earl Grey Tea Latte to pair! 🧇🍦Their creme brulee was understandably their more popular flavour being just the right amount of richness, sweetness and creaminess. The Earl Grey on the other hand was nothing to shout about, and the waffles were pretty decently average. The cafe gives off a strong after-school-hangout-for-teenaged vibes and is an ideal place to just sit and chill with friends with ample seating indoor/outdoor and affordable prices 👍🏻👍🏻
Ice cream was okay, felt that their ice cream is more water down rather than creamy. Waffles were a little crispy but I prefer it to be crisper. Best thing out of the trip there was the brownie, so fudgy and good! Ordered another slice for takeaway ! Would come back for the brownie
A hidden ice cream here at Sembawang Hill Estate, where you can find a numbers of flavours available here. One regular single scoop would cost you just $3.80.
