I have always wanted to visit Wimbly Lu cafe, which is located at a pretty ulu street around Serangoon area. Unfortunately, it started to rain when I met my friend but we both decided to go ahead with the plan of walking to the place and took about 15 minutes! The cafe was fully packed when we arrived and we waited for about 20 minutes before getting a seat. The arrival of our desserts! My friend had the classic hot chocolate while I had the mayan hot chocolate. My friend didn't like her drink
The arrival of our desserts!
My friend had the classic hot chocolate while I had the mayan hot chocolate. My friend didn't like her drink as she felt that the chocolate was too overpowering. As for me, mayan hot chocolate has some spices added in and a cinnamon stick is used to stir the drink. I like it initially but as it started to become chill, it didn't match the taste.
You can't leave Wimbly Lu without trying their waffles! Everyone seems to be raving about their waffles and so we ordered one with salted caramel ice-cream. Their waffles are made to be the crispy type which I prefer over the fuffy ones! The ice-cream however was disappointing as the scoop is relatively small compared to the waffles and I couldn't taste much of the caramel in it.
I wanted to try their famed rootbeer cake while my friend wanted the chocolate nutella tart. I guess the taste of rootbeer is rather subjective as my friend didn't like it at all while I love it! I heard a few mixed responses from my other friends and it's either you like it or not. The chocolate nutella tart is not bad though I can't really taste the nutella. I felt that the tart would taste much better if the base is a little thicker.
The rain got heavier when we wanted to leave. Anyway, though the place is quite small and cramp, I really love the decor of this cafe. I can just imagine an even nicer ambience at night with the lights hanging all over the place!
