Which Hole Have I Been Hiding In All This While?? Part (II) / This Won’t Stick to the Roof of your Mouth :p

Once again…the battle between the 2 tongues titles. Anyhows…

And so after dinner at a not-so nearby location, the sweet-tooths (hmm….sorry hijack this sentence a bit…Just wondering why it isn’t called “sweet-teeth”? >.< ) in us needed some mollification. Thus both if us were quick to jump on the bandwagon wagon and literally sped down here for our ice cream fix. Oh boy! Were we lucky! Coz we just managed to catch them at their closing tick.

Call me sua ku but I have the audacity to call myself a dessert queen when I haven’t in my *god-knows-where-you-have-been-hiding* life tried the ice cream here before. O_O At long last!

I chose the Chunky Peanut Butter ($2.90/ scoop) after a cursory taste-test. *Phoar!* Instantly B.O.U.G.H.T. :p

This peanut butter won't stick to the roof of your mouth. This peanut butter has got many lit’ chunky peanut butter bits *duhz* embedded within, it reminded so much of Breakfast. This peanut butter is so devilishly delicious. Oh…oh…peanut butter’s one of my many many weaknesses...It’s so yummy even jealous Little Miss Ixus also needed a lick. O_O (Disclaimer: This review might be screwed coz the reviewer has an abstruse infatuation with peanut butter. :) )

Daily Scoop’s ice cream vacillates between the milkiness of Island Creamery and the gelato-like creaminess of Tom’s Palette. I like this coz the richness of the peanut butter doesn’t intervene with the expression of flavor. I also like the ice cream here not only for their astounding variety, but of their point bringing dessert here closer to authenticity, unlike those new fangled ice cream parlors which endeavor to dress up their goods with whimsical deviant toppings like fanciful gummy bears (eew!) and kinda bueno (hur?) (please eat this on its own lol) that seem to be very superfluous. The hallmark of a good ice cream needn’t those extras to play up its flavor.

It’s a pity we were there near their closing so we could not witness their unique hand-churning method in action :( Heard it’s quite a spectacle by itself though. Some enterprising flavors that are really teasing and *beckoning!* include Butterscotch Pecan, Brandied Figs & Honey, Orange Marmalade, CHA (mua haha) and my all time favorite Vanilla :). Ermm…..other dubious characters ambitious ones like Lime & Black Pepper, Ginger Crumble and Lychee Martini need more convincing though.

I could still taste the smile of gratification to the last ounce of cholesterol when I left. This ice cream sure did leave an indelible mark impression on my blouse me too. :p

Daily Scoop? Hur? I think I’ll make mine daily ScoopS. :)
