Ice Edge Cafe

Popped by for some finger food and dessert on a weekend. The café wasn’t that difficult to find (maps apps on the hand phone are always welcome) and there were ample parking available (coupon parking along the roadside). Food was excellent and reasonably priced. Best of all: no service charge.

Nice environment (indoor or outdoor) for good food. Great hangout for large group and family as well. Best of all no service charge!

Popped by here for desserts and had vanilla. I’m boring like that.
Friend had waffles with salted egg ice cream and their salted ice cream was really close to the salt eggs feel. Feels weird to have have this savory taste as a sweet dessert.
Place is crowded on a Sat night but could still find seats fairly easily. Great place to chill.

This was the first time I came back after the expension. Much more spacious I must say, but the service need much improvement. Apart from the young friendly waitress, all the waiters were very blurr and seems reluctant to serve. I ordered the winglets for starter, it was over done. My main course was the ribs and it was excellent ! The meat just fell off the bones and flavorful. The cashier seems new and overcharged me. One star for service, ²¹⁄₂ for food.

How big did they get? I remember coming here a year or two ago when they had just one unit, but according to the video playing on loop, that was 2009! Fast forward to last weekend, and wow. It’s… Big. They’ve cleverly taken the corner unit as well, and they look massive.
I swear I always imagined them to only serve ice cream, but now the menu is six pages long, and they have so much food! There is a big sign board upfront that tells you that there are lots of things on a 1-​for-​1 lunch promo. And that’s a pretty amazing deal, considering all these items are also their best sellers at dinner.
I had a pretty tasty chicken cordon bleu — well made, but then liberally slathered with a… nacho cheese sauce? Kinda worked for me though, so I’m not complaining. Some friends had a super spicy seafood aglo olio, and one of us had a pesto chicken cutlet that looked very impressive.
You’ll want to finish your meal with a waffle and some ice cream. Get the salted egg yolk ice cream. You won’t regret it.

WAFFLE ICE CREAM! Who can resist good waffle ice cream? I certainly cannot!!!
I didnt come here for dinner but only for dessert thus I can only comment about the 2 sets of awesome waffle ice cream I had here. Besides the lychee martini and really didnt taste anything like lychee martini (more like lychee only), the rest of the ice cream flavours hat we had were GREAT!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the rum and raisin.
A little out of the way for those who dont drive cos its a slight trudge from the nearest Kovan mrt. Parking is also challenging cos the options of parking at the private estate is not as convenient as parking near to the shop but lots are really limited.
In any case, I LOVE THE ICE CREAM here!

Ice edge has expanded its space to take over neighboring unit as well. This should be a clear signal of how popular this joint has become over the years. Initially, known most famously for its Mao Shen Wang (Durian) ice-​cream it has since expanded to include a formidable dinner and all-​day brunch menu. Although I haven’t tried any of their savory foods… I peered at my fellow diner’s thin crust pizza and it looked deliciously crispy! I am definitely ordering that on my next visit.
I went for my usual Mao Shen Wang gelato in a LARGE cup. Don’t underestimate this modest looking LARGE cup. It packs a punch. Every scoop is like eating a mouthful of durian. Very concentrated, fresh and 100% DURIAN!!! At $ 8.15 a cup, I would expect no less!
Before I made my order, my eye drifted to the fancy array of gelato flavors they offer. Each flavor is decorated with food toppings that are associated with it. For example, their Cotton Candy flavored ice-​cream was laced with marshmallow, gummy bears and cones filled with pink cream… It just reminds you of sugar, clouds and fluffy things! Plus, it tasted as good as it looked. I was so tempted to get it but my devotion to Mao Shen Wang will not wavier. My heart was steadfast on getting it. Just as I was about to placed my order, another flavor caught my attention. This time not for its whimsical presentation but it’s rather odd one. The flavor was salted egg!!! The gelato had a rich orange color like an egg yoke and it had a salted egg perched on top of it. I knew I had to ask for a sample or forever regret it. Luckily, the staff pleasantly obligated. It tasted like Mooncake to me! I was ambivalent towards it and decided to follow through and order my eagerly awaited Mao Shen Wang!
YUMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEE.

This café is located after a small lane along Upper Serangoon road and just next to the open air restaurant called ‘Prime Cut’. It is a café with air conditioning and once you step in you will be intrigued by the array of colours displayed at the gelato section in front of the counter.
I love this place as it not only offers desserts but also an extensive menu of pizza, pasta, soups and sides. My favourite dish is the aglio olio as it is hard to find a delicious plate of aglio olio yet full of flavour and done to perfection. This one has lots of garlic and a generous serving of seafood such as mussels and prawns.
The gelatos are home made and have a number of flavours to choose from. This is a one stop place for having a full course meal. It is definitely worth the price for the amount of food and the quality given.

I’ve been to Ice Edge a couple of times and I must say, I’ve really enojyed the food there. Twice I’ve ordered the Zuppa de Cozze (Mussel Soup) and the Calzone and they were excellent.
The mussels were fresh and the tomato broth was very tasty. Its an appetizer but if you’re not feeling too hungry, it could well serve as a main course too. The calzone was also very fulfilling. I particularly like the crust on it. Fresh crispy baked calzone with a great tomato sauce on the side.
The gelato is pretty good too. Is a good place to go for that ‘complete’ meal!

This café makes pretty awesome gelato in adventurous flavours. They are pretty well-​known for their Mao Shan Wang gelato, which boasts a strong natural durian flavour that makes it seem as if you were eating real ice cold durian. The flavour is so rich and strong that if you get the Mao Shan Wang gelato, any other ice-​cream you eat after that will seem pretty bland, so eat it last if you were to get a few different scoops of ice-​cream.
I have tried their lychee martini gelato, which remains one of my favourite flavours. The alcohol in the gelato comes through gently without overpowering the fruitiness of the lychee flavour. It is very refreshing and light, perfect for a sunny afternoon. For chocolate lovers out there, their premium dark chocolate is pretty fantastic too. Occasionally, they try out really weird flavours. I had a taste of bak kwa ice-​cream when I was there once before, but they were just testing it out and never did they have it again ever since. They also do pretty nice waffles, which go well with their ice-​cream.
