Hey guys!
For the remaining 11 days of Christmas, you must be wondering where you can go
to grab a snack and hang out with your loved ones, friends from overseas, or
maybe, just have some quiet time to yourself. And I know just the place for you
to do that!
That’s right, it’s salted caramel (SC)! Perhaps it’s the ambience of the place,
it gives you the idea that everything there is slow paced and relaxed, and it
is a place I like to go when I feel moody! Apart from the different assorted
flavours of ice cream you can find, Salted Caramel has just about the best
waffles around (second to my mum’s, that is. haha)!
On a particular day, I paid a visit, with the intention to have my craving for
something sweet, satisfied. Dropped by SC, and was bothered by the same old, “What
flavour do I get?” question. For those that have not been there, fret not if
you are as indecisive as me because the staff at SC don’t mind at all! They were quite generous with their samples
which were definitely worth mentioning, and allowed me to better consider the flavour
I wanted to, or not settle for.
However, despite trying almost every flavour, I didn’t get any ice cream,
instead I eventually went with the simple and common, Chocolate waffle. And as
simple as this waffle was, it was simply delicious! Hard on the outside, soft
on the inside, and the moisture within the waffle was kept within each bite I
took. Not extremely sweet, but a very nice balance of sweetness and reality,
and the best part of it was that it was warm! Satisfying on the eyes, and on
the tummy, and for that day, I was pleased.
Have some fun this Christmas, have a break from all the work you have been
trying to get done, bring a loved one, or a friend to Salted Caramel today! Get
your fix too! Oh not to forget, feel free to comment on your favourite flavour
of ice cream/waffles too!
Cheers!
