I went to the army market last Sunday with Waiming and Callista to buy hiking gears (going tomorrow!). Then we found this precious hidden gem just right in the heart of Beach Road hawker’s center. (How to find a good food stall Singapore way: find the ones with longest queue, then start queuing too even when you’re not sure what you’re queuing for)
I present you:
Note the “ang moh desserts” text in the corner. I saw an ang moh there, so I guess the name board doesn’t just bluff ;)
Look! Real ang moh!
And this is all what we’ve been waiting for:
THE WAFFLES! Yes people, they were as good as they look. SOOOO YUMMY!! The gelato and chocolate dip are nice too! Oh man I keep drooling for the past week when ever I think about these waffles. They’re sweet, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I can taste the rum in the chocolate and the gelato is light. *DROOL*
(If you see the red camera in the background, that’s mine. Waiming happened to take better picture of the waffles so I used his photo. Everybody thank Waiming! ;)
A peek on the menu: (all prices in SGD)
Waffle $1.80
Waffle + Gelato $3.60
Waffle + Chocolate dip $2.50
Gelato $1.80
They also have some more expensive packages such as fondue (around $7) and family packages. Will try the fondue the next time I go there. But the waffle is the definite winner!
While queuing I saw a fat guy with a mountain of waffles on his table. I could only imagine I had a mountain of waffles. Lucky fat guy! Maybe the next time I’ll have TWO waffles! I registered on their website and supposedly I should get a free waffle or gelato for my next visit with my loyalty card. So that’s my extra waffle. I have reason to eat more muahahaaa!

www.thesweetstone.comPlus: WAFFLES WAFFLES HEAVENLY WAFFLES!
Minus: Nothing, they’re all good. Good service too, the guy suggested packages that ended up cheaper for us. But that could be because Waiming and I took pictures like food journalists wannabe. They should be nice to us just in case we publish the review on some famous blog *grin*.
Wow, that looks really yummy! and so cheap!! Why can’t yummy desserts be cheap here? :’( Makes me wanna go home now.
Oh yeah, if you are taking requests, I wanna hear about Malaysia from your perspective from when you were living there. :)
