the BEST MOCHI NIANGAO waffles ✨💯

📍Ri Ri Cha (Chinatown) @riricha.sg

.

From the same brains behind @thebetterscoop , Ri Ri Cha is an ice cream cafe 🍦 located in the heart of Chinatown, right beside Buddha Tooth Relic Temple on Sago Street. Inside the cafe, Ri Ri Cha features a minimalist terracotta interior with beautiful red brick walls that makes the space so inviting! ✨😌

Knowing that they pride themselves on incorporating tea flavours in their ice cream, we got their 𝗗𝗼𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗼𝗽 𝗜𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸𝘀 𝗦𝗲𝘁 ($𝟭𝟰.𝟯𝟬):

𝗪𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗢𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 🍑🍨

The bold and prominent aroma from the oolong tea, and the sweetness from the white peach was well balanced. The peach flavours almost reminded us of a nostalgic pink dolphin drink.

Similarly, the floral notes from the chamomile were brought out with a distinct and vibrant blue colour painted by the blue pea flowers! The honey was also not overdone, adding a nice sweetness overall.

We couldn’t resist topping up the set with their signature 𝗡𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗚𝗮𝗼 𝗪𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗹𝗲𝘀 ($𝟲.𝟴𝟬) 🧧 They were SO generous with the nian gao - almost the entire waffle had nian gao embedded inside. Each bite was one of buttery goodness on the outside and and chewy sweet niangao inside, absolutely perfect when paired with the light fragrance from their tea flavoured ice cream! 🫶🏻💯

For drinks, we got their 𝗢𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘂𝘀 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝘄 🫖 and 𝗧𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗻𝘂𝘁 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗸𝘁𝗲𝗮 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗣𝘂𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 🧋. These were refreshing drinks to go with our dessert. We really like how they consistently incorporate tea and oriental flavors into their ice cream and would definitely be back for their waffles too.
