Recently, good friends JW & JH introduced us to The Daily Scoop Ice Cream Cafe at Sunset Way. To think that we have stayed in the west for so long and not know about this quaint little gem tucked deeped in this place known as Clementi Arcade. To me, Sunset Way seems to be a small little forgotten neighbourhood. But surprisely the estate is quite big, with mostly private terrace houses, bungalows and condominiums. I was even more surprised there is a mid-size Cold Storage at Clementi Arcade.
Shop space is quite small, just enough for around 6-10 tables. Furnishings are simple, with colourful murals.
What important is the flavours of the ice-cream. Apparently, they offer 36 flavours of ice-cream, all hand-churned and freshly made in-store. But not all flavours are available daily. Unfortunately they ran out of Earl Grey which according to JH, is delectable. :( The SoBerry Cheez - strawberry, raspberry, cranberry cheesecake ice cream is also sold out!!!
We settled for Durian-Durian, Butterscotch Pecan and Tangerine Surprise (new flavour). We were blown away by the Durian-Durian, it is rich in flavour, yet quite light. Hubby totally loves it! He is quite picky in flavours and seldom gives his stamp of approval for desserts (even for those I bake!)
I love the old fashion and nostalgia taste of butterscotch, and once again the ice cream is flavourful but very soft and light. The pecans are also fresh and add crunch to the ice-cream.
The Tangerine Surprise is slightly zesty, with bits of fruit like frozen tangerine and strawberry. A refreshing flavour for a hot afternoon, I think.Besides the 'Cha' (Earl Grey), and SoBerry Cheez, there are still dozens of exotic flavours which I want to try, like Chendol, Coconut, lychee martini, Cempedak, Avocado... and I have yet to try the waffle, brownie, floats!
I think I'm gonna drop by The Daily Scoop Ice Cream Cafe so very often now :d~
