Singberry: strawberry delight

It is the usual Friday long lunch break, and as usual, we are all spoil by choices. It was a surprise when Foo suggested to visit this new dessert joint. Dessert for lunch? Am skeptical as well at first.

Singberry is a new dessert shop in Ipoh Garden South, the complex of shops behind Pantai Puteri Hospital. Look for Beegaik Nyonya restaurant and there is a small road leading to a row of relatively new shoplots. Singberry is somewhere in the middle.

During lunch, there are not many people so we really enjoyed the spacious seating. The owner was friendly and service, rather personal. So far so good. The deco in the shop itself would give away the menu. Strawberry.

Yup, it is all strawberry. At least for drinks. Juice, Blended ice, you get the idea. Expect to pay more than RM6 for drinks each one. The strawberries are fresh, as you can always watch them blend your order. I personally ordered the strawberry and passion fruit. The taste is definitely strawberry, and quite heavy taste too. The passion fruit is rather light in comparison, and more prominent in the aroma rather the taste bud. It is OK since the main spotlight is on strawberry. The dessert list is the usual pies and cakes. At the end of the lunch, we did pampered ourselves with some cakes. The blackforest is fair, though I prefer it to be more rich in flavour. The cheesecake is good, though nothing beats Secret Recipe so far. The walnut cake is rather surprisingly good.

Lunch? Do not worry. There is menu from the nearby chinese shop for you to order other main dish. Expect the normal price of > RM5 for each noodel/ rice dish. Apparently there are least 2 shops which you can order, so order the nearest one if you are hungry. We sort of picked the not so good one, and my Tomyam fried meehoon ended up so late that I nearly starve to death. And the tomyam taste is lacking that it tasted more like a regular fried beehoon instead. Anyway, it is not Singberry's fault and will not affect its review.


Overall, nice place for dessert and to hang out. Especially if you are a strawberry fan.

Ratings: 3 poink!
 comments: not a fan of strawberry though I do not mind eating them fresh. Remind me of Strawberry Moment, though the varieties is less.
