It’s inevitable, even with a busy mall’s distractions, when the Hong Kong egg waffle’s caramel aroma enters the nose, I become entranced in its melodic lullaby. Sweet dreams seem near but waiting ten minutes for a fresh batch feels excruciatingly long.
At Wooffles & Cream, you’d be
lucky if the wait is under ten, given the waffles are made to order and there’s
no hurrying their production time. Even with only a few people ahead of us, it
took 20 minutes to get the delightful desserts.
Both the waffle and ice cream is $3.50 each; combining them
won’t fetch you a discount, but makes the dessert that much better. Between
four of us, we shared the original wooffle with matcha green tea and the black
‘n’ white sesame with vanilla - the perfect amount to satisfy without feeling
glutinous.
A slightly crisp shell, airy
inside and a mix of sesame to add interest; if we didn’t just have dinner I
could easily have one to myself – breaking off a bubble and slathering it with
ice cream before enjoying it. As my mouth settles into the warm memory foam waffle,
the comforting spongy snack relaxes me – eyes momentarily flutter shut and a
satisfied exhale follows.
Childhood memories of simpler
times play out as each bubble prolongs the idyllic mood. With our hectic lives,
society certainly deserves a luxurious catnap, even if it happens in a crowded
suburban mall.
