The Ais Artisan Ice Cream, Damansara Uptown, Petaling Jaya

Other than hipster cafes, it looks like ice cream cafe is the "in-thing" too. We visited one, not too long ago at the over-crowded Damansara Uptown.

I love their cute, little logo. The shop is above The Library Coffee Bar, which is under renovation by the way. 

As we walked up to the first floor, we were greeted by the cosy cafe, with view over the outdoor carpark and office buildings. 

They have a large book shelf at a corner and saw a few interesting titles, one which caught my eye.

When we were there, there were only two other customers around. There's a mix of local ice-cream flavours and one liquor ice-cream. Some of the unique ones are Horlicks KitKat, Sweet Potato, Volcano, Matcha Oreo and Gula Melaka. You are welcome to ask for a free tasting before deciding on the flavour. 

If you are wondering if they have other types of dessert other than ice-cream, yes they do. There's affogato, coconut dream and yogurt delight.

I finally decided on rum raisin, volcano and gula melaka. We got caught off guard when we were served. We expected to be in a cup but they serve it on a plate and somehow, we might have over ordered again, hahahaha...

Volcano, Gula Melaka and Rum Raisin RM 22.50

Volcano ice-cream has a unique flavour sweet and spicy. You can taste hint of chili and it gets spicy after few spoonful. I find it nice that it has a kick to it. I've tried gula melaka (brown sugar) in another ice-cream cafe before and I find that Ais's version is more distinct, which I like. Rum raisin is equally good too with strong flavour of rum.

Would I recommend you coming here? Yes, for selected flavours and weekends only since parking is almost impossible on a working day, unless you come after 7pm.

IDC KL Ice Cream & Dessert at Damansara Kim, Petaling Jaya

We are back again to IDC today for second round and to satisfy my dessert craving. I noticed that their signboard is up too, and this makes it easier for people to notice.

Today, we tried triple chocolate and apple crumble. Chocolate is rich with pieces of chocolate chip and apple crumble is creamy too.

IDC KL Ice Cream & Dessert at Damansara Kim, Petaling Jaya

There is a new ice-cream parlour in town. I love ice-cream and it wasn't until last year that they start to pop up here and there. It was about time although there isn't much alcoholic ice-cream selections other than Inside Scoop. I still have to satisfy my own alcoholic ice-cream cravings by going to Udders whenever I go down.

I am happy to know that there's a new player in town and they go under the brand Kapiti, a New Zealand ice cream. The shop is bright and you can't miss it. It is the same row as Extra Super Tanker Restaurant. 

What I love about their ice-cream is that they have more variety; from Creme Fraiche, Fig & Honey, Triple Chocolate, Lemongrass & Ginger to name a few. 

We tried Black Doris Plum and Creme Fraiche, Fig & Honey. It was yummy and the texture was smooth and we could taste the flavours.
