i tried it for the first time yesterday and i think it is very good. I went to the one at Serangoon Gardens. For those who do not know where it is, it is near Cafe Cartel, beside the POSB bank. The place is really very cosy and quiet. Even though i didn't have my ice cream there, i could feel the whole ambience merely by standing there, waiting for my ice cream to be scooped. The staffs at the store are really super warm and friendly. They greeted me with one big smile the moment i stepped into the store. The way they talk, serve, collect money and everything really shows how much Haato values Good service. They probably have the best service among all the places that i have bought ice cream from.
The ice cream itself is just as good and it is really worth the money. If i am not wrong, one scoop is $3.50 and for a double it is $4.50. I tried the cookies and cream and the chocolate banana. The ice cream is smooth and it has a very natural taste. It is very different from brands like haagen daz, ben & jerrys. These brands are normally very sweet and you can sort of feel that there are lots of artificial flavouring and what not added to them. However, both the flavour that i ate tasted really original and there is this very special melting sensation when u put it in your mouth. You've got to go and try it to fully understand what i am talking about. Just an advise...try not to have both flavour at the same time. This is because the taste of the choco way i heard that the black sesame and the green tea is not bad as well. And for those of you out there who like durian, there is a durian flavour! So if the next time you are thinking of a good quiet place to chill out, this is one good place to go!
