Salty Mr. Brown with Ms Strawberry Shortcake
Salty Mr. Brown was not salty enough and therefore lacks the expected Ummphh to it. Brownie is average. I have recently developed a liking for Salted caramel or salty ice-cream/desserts. Was rather disappointed on its taste.
Ms Strawberry shortcake is not sweet like the cartoon character. The strawberry used is still unripe and sour, without any tinge of sweetness from the fruit bits.

Peppermint side by side with Sesame. Black or White?

Peppermint is Ok, safe. Would prefer it is green peppermint colour though.
Sesame is quite rich, but swings towards a higher sugar ratio.





How I felt about Daily Scoop:
The service is good, the staff are friendly and more than willing to accede to your tasting requests.
The quality and taste of the ice-cream falls short than expected. I did not expect it to be very good, but at least satisfactory to my requirements. Taste wise, Daily scoops is unable to meet my expectations.
Im quite a fan and critic for ice-creams and desserts so forgive me for my harsh review.

the interior is fun and friendly. If i was still a student, I think I will patronize Daily scoops for a nice not too crowded after school hang-out spot to laugh and chat with my friends.
But as a working adult and a foodie, I am sorry, but I doubt I will come back again as there are far better ice-cream joints out there like Udders and Island Creamery that is a better worth of my bucks

Banana Chocolate cake with scoop of Vanilla Ice-cream
- Choc & Banana is 1 of the great combination of flavours that the market is introducing and growing big on. The Banana Choc cake over here is done very well.
With the cake being moist and the banana melts in your mouth but not being too heavy or wet on the cake. Vanilla ice-cream gives a temporary wipe from the boastful flavour and creating a desire and lust for that sinful choc


Strawberry Shortcake
- not a fan of it. Gives discredit to strawberry shortcakes.
nothing commendable about this. In fact, it is a waste of bucks for anyone purchasing it.


Dark chocolate with Himalayan Pink Salt
- This gets the thumbs up and Yumz from me. Interesting is the word that rings in my mind. Savoury follows suit on the next thought of it.
Yet another great combination out in the market of combining chocolate with salt.
But they do it well over here, im normally not a fan of Sweet+Salted taste in 1, however this gets the green light from me. It may be the salt they use. Unlike seasalt, this has a subtle tinge of saltiness and is really fine in texture. It rolls the flavour of tinge saltiness and bittersweet chocolate into 1. Nice!


Cream Cheese Carrot Cake
- Carrot cakes are my number 1 love for cakes. I would Not say the 1 here is Ubber Fantastic, but it is good enough to meet my expectations.



What better place to jump into a Whimsical land with the company of Sweets for my tooth?
Great place to hang out for a Lazy afternoon and chat with friends.

not recommended for a huge group though as seats are limited.
But a 4 man gang will fit in snugly.

Their Apple Pie is a Must-try. If you love Cinnamon, this will have you licking the paper cup clean. However, if you run away fro mthe mention of Cinnamon, than you should run away from this too.

Also tried their Rum & Raisin and Horlicks.
The Rum & Raisin is ok, but gets gelad. I stopped at the 6th spoonful of it.
The Horlicks is terrible for me, it has a taste similar to coconut and I am an enemy to Coconut. I stopped at the 3rd spoonful of it.

I will not recommend people to specially go down to Shaw Towers to try out Tom's Palette, but if you happen to pass by, U Can consider trying their Apple Pie or taste test the other flavours which I have yet to try.

Perhaps it could also be Udders, Island Creamery and Ice-Kimo that has pulled my standards up for ice-creams

Ice-cream is my Joy-Food of all time.
besides Udders, this is the 1 other place which i hang-out in.
It is just 10 mins walk away from my office.
Not crowded, making it a nice place to just relax and sit back with friends or colleagues to chat and enjoy good ice-cream in a comfy air-conditioned environment.
It's my kind of place.
It may not be THE BEST, but will be ranked 3rd on my list after Island Creamery and Udders. I feel that it is good enough. It is also cheaper in comparison.

simple, minimalist decor


Tiramisu ice-cream on Waffle
their waffle is the crispier kind and quite light. I enjoyed it =)


the below is called VERY DURIAN where the fresh durian flesh in "Kiap" in between the waffle and topped with a Scoop of Durian Ice-cream.
Wow! Indeed VERY Duriany!
Even if the Durian ice-cream do not satisfy you, im sure the durian flesh will add marks to the lacking areas.
Overall a balanced Durian dish. Frankly speaking, the durian ice-cream is not that strong in flavour, but it gives a balance to the strong Pow Wow Durian flesh.
So i would stil give this dish a passing mark and worth trying if you like Durians

It's been over a month since i've been to Udders but was pretty caught up to write about it.
We tried Chempedak, Rum and Raisin, Tiramisu flavours etc...

What can i say. Don't bother so much, just GO!!!
Its fantastic! Every flavour is just bursting with richness and authenticity!
If you are undecisive, just get the staff to let you try out the flavours, but word of caution though, you may end up even more confused as all the flavours are to die for!

Really, Definately worth trying!
Its a ice-cream place, i will not talk too much about it except that they have a good concept, nice location, great tasting quality ice-cream, nice decor.

This is more of a grab eat and go place as it tends to be quite populated at times, making it quite Squeezy to hang-out.



Udders is really good. Can be equally rated with Island Creamery
