Had the Fudgy Mochi Waffle ($7) with Mango Yuzu Sorbet and Pistachio (1-for-1 at $4.50, +$1 for Pistachio as it is a Premium flavour). Majority of the flavours are Premium. Aside from the main display, there was a side display where they housed 3 other flavours (Pu Er, Hojicha and Earl Grey) which I only noticed on the way out. Was slightly disappointed as I would have liked to try any of those 3 flavours more than the ones in the main display. Do look out for it if you are headed there!

If any of you, like I, are assuming that it is a charcoal waffle because of its colour, do note that it is actually a chocolate waffle. Taste wise, it reminds me of a brownie and it is cloyingly sweet. The chocolate taste was also rather overpowering. The mochi pieces are scattered in the batter (not integrated) and are also sweet and on the sticky side. The waffle also came with a topping of caramel nibs, which added a layer of crunch, but also another layer of sweetness which was no longer welcome.

The Pistachio is sweet and rather one dimensional; it does not have the depth of flavour I would expect from Pistachio. After a few mouthfuls, all I could taste was sweetness rather than the flavour of Pistachio. (This might have been exacerbated by the waffle.) The Mango Yuzu Sorbet was a saving grace due to the sourness from the Yuzu which really cut through all the sweetness and made the waffle easier to eat. However, when eaten on its own, there was still a level of sweetness to it which made it difficult to finish.

Would not recommend what I had.
