Geláre

Here’s one that I know many of you have been looking forward to!
Not just this post, but for Geláre to be certified Halal! And finally, the time has come!

I’m not sure about you guys but when I was in school (many many many years ago), the only place we could get waffles and ice-cream was A&W. And since they went out of business in SG (many many many years ago) it has been pretty difficult to get your waffles and ice-cream fix unless you crossed the Causeway.

And then Geláre comes along (many many many years ago) but unfortunately it was not Halal. And since then, so many ice-cream joints have opened up but also none Halal. So many ‘Waffle Tuesdays’ have gone past 🙁

Well, no more of that! Now we can all enjoy Waffle Tuesday (or waffle ANYDAY) too! LOL

But then some of you might be thinking… “So nice meh Geláre waffle?”


Super Tutti Frutti Treat ($15.60)

The one thing we noticed is the variety of Waffles you can choose from.
Firstly – you can have half a waffle or a whole waffle. And then you gotta decide which type you’d like. Classic? Chocolate Chip Treat? Tutti Frutti? Churro? Rocky Road? And then you gotta choose how many scoops of ice-cream and which ice-cream flavours.

Sounds like a lot of work? Don’t worry because it all pays off in the end!

We went with the Tutti Frutti Treat with 2 scoops of ice-cream. It comes topped off with some peaches, strawberries and fresh cream. We opted for the maple syrup instead of the chocolate sauce but somehow it was left out :

The waffle itself was really good! Nice and fluffy and tasty too! But we think the pairing of the ice-cream is what makes it all worthwhile.

We chose a 2 scoop option and decided on the classic flavours – Chocolate and Strawberry.

Strawberry Ice-Cream is one of my favourite flavours and how I determine the quality and type of ice-cream being served because it’s easily decided. There are 2 types of Strawberry ice-cream – 1 tastes like strawberry milk and the other tastes like strawberries.
The one at Geláre tastes like strawberries which means natural flavours!

Geláre prides itself on serving “Au naturale premium ice-cream” and we can really taste it too.
Fresh flavours that taste great and a pretty wide variety too. (Sorry we didn’t list down all the flavours because we were too busy whacking the waffle!) And if 1 or 2 scoops is not enough,,, have 3!!

And in case you were wondering, Geláre serves more than just Waffles and Ice-Cream!

Mushroom Soup

We were a little peckish so we had the Lasagna Meal ($15.90) which comes with soup and a drink.
You could also have a Pasta, Salad, Sandwich or Pie meal too!

The Mushroom Soup was a bit bland though. Add a little salt and pepper to help it along but we’d classify this under the “don’t have also never mind’ category.

Lasagna

I have to say 2 things.
Number 1 – The Lasagna was surprisingly good. Number 2 – that’s a damn good photo! LOL

We didn’t expect much from the Lasagna but somehow it was actually really good! The tomato sauce was not too sour and there was quite a fair amount of meat in between the lasagna sheets. Overall it made for a pretty satisfying bite.

If the Lasagna is not bad, wouldn’t mind giving the Pasta dishes a go too actually!

Adam’s Verdict:
Super Tutti Frutti Treat 4/5 — Lasagna 3.5/5 — Mushroom Soup 1.5/5

Maryah’s Verdict:
Super Tutti Frutti Treat 4.5/5 — Lasagna 3/5 — Mushroom Soup 1/5

They have all sorts of waffles at Geláre. They even have pancakes for breakfast and a whole range of foods like Sandwiches, Pasta, Pies and even Salads. But I think that in the end, we will all be heading down mainly for the Waffles and Ice-Cream am I right?

They have Geláre outlets all over the island namely AMK Hub, Causeway Point, The Star Vista, SAFRA Jurong, NUH Medical Centre, Suntec City, IMM and Tampines 1.
