The Cold Pantry has now shifted. Still within the vicinity but now they are nearer to Farrer Park MRT station. The Cold Pantry At New Location, 88 Rangoon Road. Now, it is with a shorter walk from the MRT station.
The space of the entire cafe looks bigger and perhaps is the high ceiling that contributed to the look.
The Cold Pantry At New Location
It seems the style of the design of the then and now are pretty similar. The difference to me is the colour of furniture. The tone of brown is now cool and with the white-washed wall, it looks clean and sleek.
A pity that they have taken off the Froyo from their menu. This is the item that I love most about The Cold Pantry. The good news is that they have kept their most popular item the Classic Belgium Waffle. As well as 2 other items that have took the instagram by storm for a while; Chocolate Rootbeer Waffle ($12.50) and Charcoal Vanilla Softserve ($4.50).
Instead, they have finally introduce the gelato of Standard Single ($4.50) or Standard Double ($7.80). Supplement $1 for Premium flavours. The number of flavours may not be as much as most gelato shop offers but there are interesting and unique flavours.
We have also noticed that they have coffee in the cafe now. Rejoice for all who love their coffee. They chose to use beans roasted by Tiong Hoe.
The Cold Pantry at new location is offering new combo items like when they were at their initial location. This round, when I visited, they have the Enchanted Garden ($14.80). In this creation it consists of Red Velvet Waffle in Rose Flavour served with 2 scoops of gelato; one Morroccan Rose Jasmine & Hokey Pokey Lavender.
NAHMJ Verdict
We felt it is a shame that The Cold Pantry At New Location took off Froyo from the menu. With same token, it is relief to find out their standard maintains.
