Have ordered The red velvet and charcoal waffle, recommended by the service personnel. Red velvet waffles is nice, both taste superb. Will definitely visit again!…Read More

I’ve become a huge fan of Oblong Ice Cream shop located at the basement of Balmoral Plaza ever since I tasted their Cookie and Cream ice cream. Oblong’s Cookie and cream ice cream is a right mix of ice cream and milkshake made out of chocolate cookies flavoring. The soft cookies went perfectly well with the ice cream. Every bit of it is rich, creamy and tasty. I just love the fact that it melts on your mouth. It is priced at $3.00 per scoop, is quite reasonably priced as well. …Read More

Anyone who understands me knows that I love desserts and good ice-cream (even better if it is hand-made) tops the list. Alright, I mean who doesn't fancy a scoop or two of these delightful creations on a hot humid weather, such as in Singapore?Nestled quietly at the basement of Balmoral Plaza, Oblong Ice Cream is easy to be missed, but venture inside this humble mall and step into this cosy haven - a place ideal for studying or just chilling out with mates. They also provide a small comic/magazine stand for reading pleasure and also delectable selections of chic music playing softly in the background.Oblong's uniquely named ice cream (Tarik the Teh is an interesting one) is rich in flavour and has a thick creamy texture. Some of my favourites include Milo, Rum & Raisin and their best-seller - Lychee Martini.It goes for S$3.00 per scoop with additional 60 cents if you ordered the star flavours.We also had the Plain Waffle w/ 2 scoops (S$9.00). Rum & Raisin and Chocolate are our choices and boy, they surely do go well with the piping hot waffle. Just a heads up - to ensure only the freshest is served, they make the batter upon ordering. However, the batter was a tad over-mixed and has an overwhelming eggy taste. And.. I would prefer my waffles to be crispier and drizzled with hot fudge though.Similar to most local ice-cream shops (e.g. Island Creamery), have your photo taken for free and leave an everlasting memory here in Oblong Ice Cream.Take a break and slow down the pace of your life. Grab some ice-cream and your favourite comic book. Relax. Oblong Ice Cream is such place to head for.…Read More

I love ice cream. We heard about this place, so my wife and I went down to check it out. We had a VERY nice time trying each of the many flavours!In the end, we settled for the Rum and Raisins and the good ole Ore's Chocolate Chip. But instead of eating there, we bought an entire tub each! My wife's Rum and Raisin did not survive the night. Somehow, when I woke up the next morning, it was GONE.My Chocolate Chip survived at least 2 TV sessions. I, unlike some others, have self control. I found the Chocolate Chip a little bland because I personally prefer it to be sweeter. But the overall taste was good. The Rum and Raisin, on the other hand, was really fabulous. I only managed to get two TINY spoons. We have been topping up on the various flavours, but Rum and Raisin has become a stable food group for us.…Read More

After having lunch with colleagues, our boss treated us all for dessert! (YAY!) Blong Ice Cream is located at the basement of Balmoral Plaza. It's one of those places which you won't get to notice at first but I loved the artsy fartsy look and ambiance of the place. The place is not really that big but what caught my attention was their walls which are filled with polaroid pictures of their satisfied and happy customers. Blong offers a wide variety of flavors and all of them looked really good! So for a first timer like us, it will really give you a hard time to choose what flavor to pick. Since pistachio nuts are one of my favorite snacks to munch on, I ended up picking the Salted Caramel with Pistachio flavor. I like the sweet and salty taste of the ice cream and how the sweetness of caramel was perfect in every bite of pistachio nuts. There was nothing really special about their ice cream, but still it wasn't a very bad experience after all!…Read More
