At the ground floor of 321 Clementi, one of the shop, that’s where you find Wimi Ice Cream, a takeaway ice cream stand with Thai Coconut Ice Cream as its specialty.
The space is really tiny. Almost like a hole in the wall kind. The area for ordering certainly can’t fit any more than 5 big guys. Ok maybe 6 if you don’t mind the squeeze. But I wouldn’t want to enter if so. And should there be customer in the ice cream parlour, I would certainly hope you pull to enter and not push. You will know why I am saying so till you visit the shop. So much so on the space, that’s really secondary when it comes to food.
Menu
At Wimi Ice Cream, it does not offer much on its menu instead it is focused on producing the Thai Coconut Ice Cream in scoop or soft serve.
You will find the Fresh Coconut on its menu too.
Traditional Thai Coconut Ice Cream
The feature at Wimi is the Traditional Thai Coconut Ice Cream. That is Thai Coconut Ice Cream served in a Coconut Husk with toppings and a cup of refreshing Coconut Water.
You get to choose 3 toppings from the normal topping list of 8 toppings. If you prefer the premium, add $0.30 for each topping. Likewise, there were 8 toppings on the list.
The Thai Coconut Ice Cream is smooth and creamy but I find the coconut flavour a little too light. I prefer it to be more concentrated.
Coconut Soft Serve
It is interesting to see Coconut Soft Serve. I have not noticed this flavour in any other ice cream parlour this far.
It was a pity that on the day of visit, the soft serve machine was down. I didn’t get to try the soft serve. The owner (I suppose he is) suggested me getting the Gelato instead, though I tried it. He insisted that the taste were the same. The only difference is in the texture. I went ahead and have it in a cone. I could not savour the Coconut flavour once I bite into the biscuit cone as it was overwhelmed by the biscuit cone.
Verdict
The coconut flavour was a little too light. It would be better to have the gelato served in the husk or cup. If Wimi could improve the recipe to increase the coconut flavour, it would certainly be excellent.
