the daily scoop at sunset way, clementi




when ivy came back in january 2007 for a one-week visit, i had wanted to take her to this ice-cream cafe at sunset way, clementi. because of her very brief stay and the fact that she had her own programmes most of the time, i did not get the chance to do so. had taken ida there once but did not try the ice cream then.

the daily scoop offers a variety of alcohol-flavoured choices, together with other favourites like fruit or coffee. i have tried the lychee martini, the strawberry, the chempedak and the chocolate. also tried the set, where you get a piece of freshly baked wafer topped with a scoop of ice cream for $5.20.

to save money when i am buying for two persons, i will go for the double scoops, in flavour of our choice. this way, it is cheaper than buying two single scoops.

the reason for my wanting to let ivy try the place is that the owner, melissa phey, learnt to make her ice cream in melbourne. you can actually watch the ice cream being created if you drop by the place between 1pm and 7pm.

went again with ivy and her melbourne friend fawn to daily scoop for the ice-cream. tried their new creations - mango passion and tangerine sunrise. our favourite is still the lychee martini.

parking is free within the compound of the building. each time i go there, i am able to find a parking space. these days, it is becoming more difficult to get a lot because of the presence of cold storage supermarket.
