Gelare @ eCurve

I love waffles...

Recently, my freaky heart had been craving for a nice waffle all the times. After some times of yearning, finally I came to this waffle shop in e@curve (used to call it Cineleisure). Gelare has been operating here for years and I had almost forgotten its existence until my friend reminded me of this hehe..

Gelare is located at the Ground floor of e@curve. It is a nice cafe with the colourful wallpaper illustrating how people love eating their waffle haha..

To my knowledge, Gelare not only famous for their waffles, but also the pancakes. Too bad that I haven't get to try the pancakes though.


Looking at its menu board, Gelare sells waffles, pancakes, and ice-cream too. Gelare's ice cream is nice in the sense that they have rich and smooth texture which definitely make us opt for more. 
They have waffle in original, chocolate chip, and tutti frutti AND
we can choose to serve it with 1 up to 3 scoops of ice-cream.
Aww, this is so tempting for all the chocolate lovers!

They have varieties of nice ice-cream flavours that made me go headache in choosing which to be perfectly served with my waffle. Cookie dough, pistachio nut, raspberry sorbet, etc... 


So, here's my final choice! A regular waffle with a scoop of mocha chip ice cream. The waffle is very fluffy with slight crunchy at the edge. But I was wondering why was it not hot at all even it was just freshly made. Hmm...



Yes! A normal waffle isn't enough for a greedy eater like me hehe.. AND most importantly, how can i resist the calling of chocolate since Gelare seems to be strongly recommending this through the poster and promotion board. xP 

So, here I had the chocolate dipped waffle. Similarly, it would be nicer if it is hot.


After all, Gelare's waffle is nice but still there is room for improvement. I would prefer if it is crunchier and hotter. My craving has been half fulfilled after trying out the nice waffle in Gelare. Why was it half only? =P

Because I was missing the super crunchy waffle outside my uni, which is spreaded over with super thick layer of chocolate and peanut butter.. Yummsss
RM2.80 waffle outside the Sunway Uni's Orange.
But it was disappointing that it wasn't as nice as before anymore.
No more that crunchy and no more thick spreads.
Here I am.. A happy kid with her waffle craving fulfilled~ xD

The Bee @ Jaya One

The Bee is buzzing around~

The Bee has opened their two branches in Malaysia. The one I visited - Jaya One's outlet and another one is situated in the Publika mall. Simple yet nice environment in Jaya One brought us a nice dining experience here.
Some bar seats available inside &
tables are placed outdoor to occupy more customers.


There is a bar inside with a cake counter right at its corner, displaying the cakes of the day. Therefore, the menu does not list out any cakes choices. Every flavour is depending on its availability & we ought to have a look from the cakes counter ourselves. 
Oops! Cakes counter was not snapped in this picture..
Anywayz, it's just at the right corner. ;)
  

The Bee sells Western meal with its burgers, pastas & sandwiches being the mains. Others than that, they have salads and also snacks like quesadilla & nachos.


For alcoholic drinks, The Bee serves mainly the beers and wines. Their choices are few but are of reasonable prices.


Before having the main, I had the chicken avocado salad as my appetiser. The avocado is blended into gravy sauce to pour onto the greens. The salad is nice as I personally love the avocado juice and most importantly, fresh greens are the fundamental clue to a great salad. 


For the main, as the choices are not of a wide range, I chose to have their recommended Bee Burger. The Bee Burger is made of their house-made fat, thick beef patty, and is enhanced with the turkey bacon, cheddar and pickles. What I found delicious in the burger is the beef patty, which is grilled to a juicy medium-rare, with appropriate tenderness & of great, fine ground beef.  


Moving to the cakes, I chose the tiramisu cake because it physically appeared to be kinda similar with the one in Alexis (FYI, I love the one in Alexis hehe..). However, this is farly behind the Alexis one. Its tiramisu and alcohol added are not up to a perfect portion & the caramelised nuts were not crunchy as expected.


Last but not least, what is the attraction point of The Bee?


- The Last Polka ice cream -
The Last Polka ice cream is available in several restaurants. For where I know besides than The Bee, it is sold in Fat Spoon @ Damansara Uptown too.
- So, what is so special about The Last Polka ice cream?
  Unique flavours such as teh tarik, salted gula melaka, nutella...etc. 

...AND of course, we came for its GUINESS flavour~
This is such an inordinary flavour,
where guinness beer's 'bitter' has been transformed into a 'sweet' ice cream.
It is special but a bit weird to have guinness in sweet taste. xD  
Oops! Since when Ivy has become the ambassador? xP

The Bee is worth a try and for my next visit, I would like to try its pasta. The Bee's ice-cream cakes would be my next choice too as the neslo and horlicks caramel flavours are quite tempting. Of course, The Last Polka Dot ice cream is a not-to-be-missed item in The Bee. I'm so gonna to try the nutella ice-cream! ;P
