Seems like liquid nitrogen ice cream has been a hit these days. Just Like It! is one of those stalls that sell this type of ice cream. The staffs are dressed in scientist attire, just as if they were working in a chemical lab. The ice cream here is made upon order, so you can assure its quality and freshness. They put all the fresh ingredients into the mixer, then mixed it with the liquid nitrogen and ta-dah, my ice cream was ready to enjoy.Vanilla Oreo - $3.90. What can go wrong with Oreo? It was a perfect mix between vanilla and Oreo in a cup. The ice cream itself was smooth and not overly sweet. For the price of almost 4 bucks, I feel like it's very worth it. You pay for the experience of watching the making process of the ice cream, moreover you also can enjoy the goodness of freshly-made ice cream without artificial ingredients.

For full review and more photos, visit http://makanarts.com/2013/08/31/just-like-it-amk-hub/ Originally from Australia, it has now spreaded to Singapore and this outlet is their first (before that one had to go to 1 Utama in Malaysia for Just Like It, unless you can find local nitro ice cream stalls!). One can see the "scientists" doing the ice cream experiments.The New Popcorn tasted great and had real popcorn added into the mixture. It is also more flavourful. Despite the price, this is a recommended place for ice cream freshly made on the spot (slow it may be because it's only made upon order, it's without any artificial flavoring, coloring, etc. and it's original!).

We were shopping at AMK Hub on one weekend and saw a group of people, dressed like scientists, surrounding a counter. I was wondering why the “lab workers” were in a shopping mall. So I dragged Love <3 to check out the counter.Just as we approached the counter, vast amount of "smoke" came out from a mixer. Then we realized it is Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream! I remember seeing it in one of the Polytechnics’ Open House!Anyway, it is a new method of making ice cream. A Liquid Nitrogen (LN2) is added to a mixture while stirring it using a mixer. This process fast freezes the mixture into semi-solid state, like an ice cream within minutes! They highly recommend their Durian flavor and so we ordered that. After making the payment, that's where the excitement began, as we monitor how our Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream was being made. The Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream is very smooth and creamy. They have added real durian flesh into the mixture hence the flavor is very strong. Yummy!

The taste of the ice cream is normal, and the originality only lies in the way that they make it. I bought the voucher from Qoo10 ($2.90), I add on another $1 to upgrade it to the durian flavor. The whole process starts with a liquid solution. After they pour into the mixer, they used liquid nitrogen to deep freeze the mixture and put the durian puree (they are so stingy with the puree!) in. After lots of nitorgen gases and mixing, the ice cream is done! It is magical to watch, but not really when you taste it. The ice cream is good, but not to the extent that i will pay so much more extra for a cup of it.

For full post, read it here: http://www.iisjong.com/2013/07/just-like-it-revolutionary-f.htmlI am always at Ang Mo Kio hub after school, because there's a bus home there (now y'all know where to stalk me, lol). A little over a month ago, the place started to change. There are new push cart shops beside the bus interchange area now!There's this shop with staff clad in scientist robes doing "experiments", similar to what you'll see in a scientist's lab. It caught my eye for a long time. Initially, everyone who walked past took a glance, walking away eventually.However, I noticed that it has been increasingly popular these days! Huge crowds gather as onlookers were curious what this mysterious shop was all about. I was one of them. Like they say, Singaporeans love to queue and be kaypoh, right?I completely didn't have a single clue what they were selling. Drinks? Food? There were no signs, until you push through the crowd and look at the menu.Turns out it's a new ice cream shop, and these were their claims. "How to make ice cream like that!?", were my first thoughts.What they do is make ice cream fresh from scratch, so you have to wait for quite a bit. No worries because there is a queue number system. They put the ingredients into the ice cream mixer machine first. Cold liquid nitrogen gas was then blasted over the liquid mixture to freeze it.Was pretty interesting to see the smoke mist coming out, which was what captured my attention and probably everyone else's in the first place.My Say:The ice cream had a velvety and smooth texture compared to normal ice cream. I feel that it was also "healthier" since there were no sugar added, bringing out the natural sweetness of the ingredient. This Durian Durian ice cream I had was made from pure D24 durian; you could taste some of the meat! It was pretty palatable.New PopCorn, one of their signatures.The balance in flavours was well-tipped and there were popcorn bits in the ice cream to give it a gritty texture to the smooth ice cream. There wasn't much of the popcorn taste though, it was pretty mild? You could also see that as compared to the Durian Durian, there was a huge difference in the amount of 1 scoop.Apart from the gimmick concept of seeing your order freshly made before you, did the liquid nitrogen ice cream taste better? Hmm.. I would say it's so-so. Moreover, I think they made the ice cream cup by cup, taking up a lot of time. But to each his own!
