Wimbly Lu date with Weimin

One of the mid-week, I finally met up with Wei min for our dessert date and also to exchange our gifts that we both bought it from overseas. I have always been wanting to meet her out for dinner but she was out of Singapore for a week for her school exchange in Korea. 

Her legal birthday falls on 26th September so I decided to foot the bill for this dessert date as a birthday treat to her. I brought her to wimbly lu as she hasn't been there before and I was craving for their waffles.



Wimbly Lu is not an unfamiliar name in the cafe scene; the Jalan Riang cafe had been noted for serving delectable desserts such as their widely-raved waffles.



Wei Min had her usual Iced Mocha and I ordered tea ($6) to clear away the calories that I am going to have on that day. Tea would aid in digestion and i figured a tea by the name of Peppermint would likely be free of any sins and help me greatly in subduing the evils in my body.




Root beer cake ($8)
Definitely one of the must-try in Wimbly Lu. The combination was quite a surprise. It's like a brownie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream however dip in root beer sauce at the bottom of the cup. Soak the brownie in fizzy root beer sauce, take a bite with the vanilla ice cream and the taste it. You will be pleasantly surprised.



Waffles with Ice cream ($8.50)
For the waffles with ice cream, you can choose which flavor of ice cream you want, I chose the milo icecream because it stands out from the rest of the flavors I guess? And you hardly see places selling milo ice cream. You also get to choose the topping, Maple Syrup, Toffee or Chocolate Sauce on it. You may request the syrup to be separately with the waffles.


Crepe with ice cream ($8.50) - comes with butter and maple syrup but you may add a scoop of ice cream. Wei Min chose cheesecake ice cream to go with it. Not bad a combination!



Wimbly Lu is definitely worth a visit for the desserts if you're near the vicinity. All of their desserts are really worth trying but personally, the root beer cake is a must order whenever I'm here. Be there early, the queue usually starts after dinner about 8pm. Chocolate lovers, this is the place for you!

Thursday eat what we like at Serangoon Garden


Its finally Thursday, 1 day to count down to my freaking weekend. Was on an impromptu date with a few of my SEG mates. Though it was impromptu, they were so steady and on for dinner. *Insert infinity heart to them.
Was procrastinating beside cafe food or Korean restaurant. In the end, I suggested Chomp chomp hawker center as it is alot more cheaper. Secondly, there are more choices to choose from rather than sticking to one boring dish. Thirdly, it is so convenient for us! All of us stay North/ North east area and have direct bus home.



Upon arriving to wait for our two "princes" to arrive, Amelia and I ordered our drinks first to quench our thirst. So much of loving to dine in at Chomp chomp because they served ENORMOUS cup of drink. And im serious when I say BIG! Just look at the size of our sugar cane and avocado drinks, its bigger than my hand. HAHA, Amelia placed her phone to make an obvious comparison. Oh, this cup of drink costs $4.50 and preferably shared with 2-3 person. 








What's up next was the food that we ordered. Basically, I ordered the usual items when I have it with my family or friends. Like the basic BBQ chicken wings, Stingray and Hokkien Mee were the MUST in my list. I will never leave this hawker without ordering those food. What's more with a $1.20 chicken wings, $12 stingray and $4 worth of Hokkien Mee. Happiness lies in me!

Amelia shocked me by her big appetite. She went to order her favourite oyster egg, satay, rojak and popiah! Im like WOW, this girl really knows how to eat! Hahaha. But of course with the guy's help, we cleared most of the food and was rubbing my tummy hard. And guess what my sweetheart and Jensin say? 
" I still not full leh, lets go for Dessert!"










And guess where we are? Dessert after next at this famous Dessert Bowl 一碗甜品. I think I had mentioned this dessert shop before. They served really nice mango dessert and they are famous of their durian mousse. But sorry, im not a fan of durian! We ordered:

  1. Black glutinous coconut
  2. Mango pomelo soaked with pearls,  ai yu jelly and seedless jelly
  3. And definitely Durian Mousse for the three of them

All was good and I decided to try their durian mousse for the sake of the durian-lovers. And hmmm.... taste good to me surprisingly! So if I say its nice. this dessert will never go wrong.







It really freaked me up when Jensin and Amelia went for their third rounds and our last stop was at wimbly lu located at myVillage. It was newly opened (apparently the second outlet) at serangoon garden. It feels ironic that they opened both shops at Serangoon area bur since its so near to my area, I shouldn't complain about it ;X

Hahaha, lucky we didn't order alot, just mainly one waffle with a scoop of ice cream. We asked for their best recommendation for ice cream and the assistant told us to try Honey cinnamon flavour. This flavour seemed unique uh. Anyway, their waffles is in petite size ( basically half from the whole piece). So waffle + ice cream bombed us $7.50. Quite expensive!






Was surprised on how much food we have on that night but thanks to the following people for the dinner. Didn't know that we have alot of things to gossip about. HAH and so many stories telling to share with one another. Life in poly definitely brighten up with the accompany of you guys! To Poh chin, all the best in enlisting! Will be waiting for the day that you POP! For jensin, time for exercise la! To keep fit please and lastly to my dearest amelia, meet up more often for our FOOD!

Till then.

Arbite + wimbly lu

Haven't been introducing my two cafe hunts on Tuesday with Amelia and her friend. It's kinda an impromptu plan for her friend to join us. But oh well... I make a new friend and he is kinda nice to talk with. Comfortable enough that the three of us could really laugh and chit chat for the whole night.

First cafe to bring you to: Wimbly lu. I brought them over to Jalang riang. Initially I thought of bringing them to Rokeby cafe for dinner but this cute little girl got frightened by this cafe. I mean yeah, she tried this cafe and all the food taste horrible (to what her opinion). Since she haven't try wimbly lu, we thought that maybe we can have our dessert first before proceeding on to our main and we did! 



Here to our Chocolate tofu cake ($6.80). The name scared us and I would expect something like the soft tofu found in the market. But I was wrong! The after taste alittle of cheesecake, I actually mistooken it. There wasn't any strong tofu smell but instead it gave us this bitter like taste. Not too bad after all.
 
 And gosh.. We made a right choice of ordering this molten lava cake! ($6.80) I can't explain how good it is. Imagine chocolate melting all over your mouth. OKAY, abit exaggerating! But the fluid of the chocolate simply sipped through your throat. 

 And last but not least, the over rated waffles overloaded inside Instagram by many customers. I would say that their ice cream added up to the waffle taste. I don't think they use butter milk but well... It's crispy from the outside, soft from the inside. 2 scoops of ice-cream with waffle cost us $11.90.


After our pre dessert, we headed off to serangoon garden for our main. 


I didn't take lots of pictures partly because the lighting doesn't appear well inside my iPhone camera.

Starter; TRUFFLE FRIES ($12.90) I guess what is good for truffle fries will be their sauce. If the sauce is well blend, everything will taste perfect.

 Amelia had her Arbite breakfast ($16.90) Scrambled eggs, Bacon, Baked beans, grilled tomato, smoked beef sausage, sautéed mushroom, toasted brioche and panned noisettes. Everything taste so BLEH )): The sausage is so salty, the scrambled eggs is so creamy. Their toast bread is so hard. Not a recommend dish to order.

 El had his Tagliatelle lobster which cost him a BOMB ($24.90). It came in big portion but the pasta taste like MEE POK. Tagliatelle tossed with a secret recipe oriented chilli sauce and crabmeat with a grilled rock lobster.

 I ordered this ($16.90) pork bolognaise egg roll and I love it really a lot. It comes with paper thin egg rolls baked with a pork bolognaise filling tapped with cheese and over baked served with a side of fresh green.

 What's good is we are lucky to have free desserts for that day. It a complimentary dessert! hehehe. Mint pudding on the left & strawberry pudding on the right! FREE ONE SO JUST EAT even though we are full filled.

 A really good hangout with them. Cafe hunt wouldn't be good without both of you (:

Till then.
