\"Shrove
\nI went to Shrove Tuesday on the 2nd<\/sup> day of its operations, hoping to have a break from usual hawker food on a Friday, but there was no hot food available yet<\/strong>, only ice cream, waffles and drinks. Bummer. Hot food will be available once the place is officially opened.<\/p>\n

\"Shrove
\nShrove Tuesday, also known as Pancake Tuesday or Fat Tueday, is the day before Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. \u00a0It is a simple cafe, with nothing much to speak of about the d\u00e9cor<\/strong>. We ordered waffles<\/strong> ($5), with a scoop of Sea Salt Caramel ice cream<\/strong> ($3.80). A bit pricey as Creamier<\/a>‘s waffle & ice cream in Toa Payoh is only about $7.50.<\/p>\n

\"Shrove
\nThe light golden waffle was airy, and a bit crispy. It reminded me of Hatter Street Caf\u00e9\u2019s Whoaffle<\/a>, but Shrove’s waffle is full size, and it\u2019s $0.10 cheaper. I wasn’t exactly blown away by the waffles, probably because I had something similar previously. The owner of Shrove told us that it takes them 3 hours to make the batter! The ice cream was OK only, texture was too smooth, scoop was smaller than other ice cream parlours. I prefer the ice cream from Creamier<\/a> and Salted Caramel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Shrove
\nShrove\u2019s owner also recommended us tea beverages, as the tea leaves are handpicked! We had a sniff at the Melon & Mangosteen tea,<\/strong> and it smelled really good. I would have ordered tea if I had had my caffeine fix in the morning, but I was totally crashing and needed coffee. We were told that the beans are award winning beans from Italy, and it took the owner 6 months to find them<\/strong>. I had caf\u00e9 latte<\/strong> ($4.50) which was really aromatic and smooth. It didn\u2019t leave a strong aftertaste, which was good.<\/p>\n

I will come back for the coffee since they have the most decent coffee in Toa Payoh. I spent about $13<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
