dessert! 🍨
Rating: 3/10⭐️
Had high expectations for Sourbombe’s bombolonis given that it was so highly raved about. For context, we consumed immediately at the store itself (not takeaway). However, was truly disappointed by the dry and slightly hard & cold texture of the bun, and the filling was not extraordinary. Overall, not worth the price & better donuts can be found elsewhere.
Items tried:
Milo Dinosaur ($4.80):
The milo dinosaur tasted absolutely nothing like milo, and despite so, if it tasted like chocolate or malt (or at least good, it would have still be fine). But the texture of the filling simply felt like “failed pudding” and we couldn’t bring ourselves to finish even half the donut.
Basque Burnt Cheesecake ($5.60):
The basque burnt cheesecake filling was at least good, had a slight similarity to a custard texture and taste, but overall, with the dry bun, the price for the donut is not justified & we would not purchase again.
Overall Rating: 6.5/10⭐️
Items:
Roasted Pistachio ice cream scoop
Had high expectations for roasted pistachio, however it fell short as the flavour was just mild and only a tinge of pistachio could be tasted as compared to other stores.
Yogurt Speculoos scoop
The yogurt speculoos was exactly as expected, similar to what you would expect at smööy, or yoguru for the yogurt texture and taste, along with speculoos bits in it.
Waffle ($5.80)
The waffle was not very big, and we recommend one person having one each, as it was not enough for two! For those who enjoy airy and crispy waffles (not dense at all), this would be your go-to waffle! However, we felt that the waffle was too airy to our liking, and 2 scoops of ice cream was too much for one waffle.
Damage: $15.20 (before 30% burpple beyond)
Overall, this place would be nice for those who stay nearby as it serves decent ice cream & waffle, especially if you have burrple beyond which makes it reasonably prices, else, the waffle may feel a little pricey for the size!
