Ice Cream Skool: New & Price-Friendly Ice Cream Café in the Tampines Neighbourhood

1 Comments

Ice Cream Skool...

Somehow, Ice Cream Skool reminded me of my Junior College days where I would hog the ice cream shop outside my school with my friends. This exact scene was repeated at Ice Cream Skool but with primary level kids streaming into the café after school and crowding around the place to get their ice cream cravings fixed.

Nestled in the Tampines neighbourhood, Ice Cream Skool is a cosy and unpretentious café that serves mainly home-made ice cream & waffles, as well as some other light bites at a very affordable price. Maybe affordable isn’t really the right word to describe the pricing at Ice Cream Skool, student-friendly would probably be a better word choice to portray the pricing at the café. So, if your school is located near Tampines, you should really pay Ice Cream Skool a visit.

Even though Ice Cream Skool might seem to be a café only for students, it is also a great place for family to hang out over some ice cream & waffles. I would, for sure, if I am staying in the East.

Still craving for the Matcha waffle from Ice Cream Skool! Definitely will visit them again if I'm in the Tampines vicinity!

Iced Matcha & Iced Chocolate // $5.90 each

Such a big cup only costs you like $5.90! Each of them also comes with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. Personally, I preferred the Iced Chocolate than the Iced Matcha. The Iced Matcha tasted too powdery for my liking. Also, you can choose the sugar level of your drinks. Just inform the staff if you want more or lesser sugar. Overall, it’s a good fix on a hot day, plus it is super value-for-money!

Soup & Bread // $3.20

The mushroom soup was not too bad! It was not too watery or creamy, just right. The breadstick was delicious! It was aromatic and flavourful, and I can’t stop myself from finishing every single one of it. The way to eat it: Dip the breadstick into the mushroom soup. A comfort food that I really missed!

Spicy Tom Yum Pasta // $10.90

I could smell the aroma of Tom Yum from a distance. The pasta was extremely flavourful with a tint of spiciness that kicks in at the end. Fret not, the spiciness of the pasta becomes more tolerable once you have a few mouthful of it. It later becomes more addictive. Overall, it was an appetising dish!

Creamy Mushroom Pasta // $9.90

The mushroom pasta was creamy but it would have been better if the flavour was stronger.

Chicken-In-A-Waffle // $4.90

This has to be one of my favourite at Ice Cream Skool. Priced at only $4.90, I can foresee that this will definitely be a hot favourite among students. The chicken is stuffed inside the crispy waffle (you rarely can find this elsewhere) and the combination works. Sorry, I didn't get to snap a picture of the chicken inside the waffle! It was fragrant and very easy to eat. How to watch diet when this is so good? The maple syrup also added an extra sweetness to the savoury chicken! You definitely need to try this!

Their flavoured waffles and home-made ice cream was pretty stellar. For a small ice cream shop, I was also really impressed with the richness and texture of their ice cream. They have quite a selection of ice cream. My favourites have to be the Mango Yoghurt, Mao Shan Wan (super addictive), Double Chocolate & Cookies & Cream. Like what I mentioned earlier, the ice cream texture and consistency was good. Not too soft, not too hard and not too chunky. I love it! Add one scoop of ice cream into your waffle at $3 and two scoop for $5.80! It is really damn cheap! Plus they give you a generous scoop of ice cream!

Butter Chip Waffle // $3.80

If you like crispy waffle, then you should really go for the butter chip flavoured one. It was also very aromatic!

Double Chocolate Waffle // $4.20

Chocolate lovers will definitely fall for this! The chocolate flavour was very rich and distinct. The outer layer was crispy while the inner layer was fluffy (texture of a muffin). There is also melted chocolate inside the waffle. Pure bliss! You have to order this, I couldn’t emphasize more! Before I forget, drizzle more chocolate sauce for maximum experience!

Matcha Waffle // $3.80

I fell in love with this instantly because as a long time Matcha lover, this definitely exceeded my expectation. Matcha flavour was distinct and it doesn’t tastes artificial. Complements very well with the ice cream. I am satisfied!

Thank you Ice Cream Skool for inviting me over! It was definitely a very comforting meal!
