I guess I would disagree with the fact that it lives up to its hype :( unfortunately. I was really looking forward to this. I got the black and white sesame egg waffle with green tea ice cream.
Esthetically it looked okay. It looked a little bit overcooked and dark but tasted alright. Didn't feel like an amazing HK style egg waffle. It was decent. What disappointed me was the ice cream. The flavour and texture of it. I bake at home every so often and first taste in.. Maybe even before first taste.. Just the smell of it gave it away. It tasted like the frosting I made at home ontop of my matcha cupcakes that consists of heavy cream and a ton ton ton of confectionary sugar. The texture of it led me to think that. The whole time I was eating the ice cream it felt like I was eating frosting and not ice cream. It was smooth but in a very thick way. The consistency wasn't so much ice cream. It was very heavy cream. We made ice cream at home too.. So it was kind of surprising the consistency it gave off. I don't think I will be back for the ice cream.. But maybe I will give the lap cherng waffle a try. Maybe some day :)
