Ministry of Food - Japanese Express

I LOVE ICE CREAM. Never used to love it so much until recently. Think its due to stress..haha. Anw I chanced upon this new place at Raffles City, which is a small branch of Ministry of Food (MOF). Started by a small group of uni grads, the place serves Japanese gelato. I tried the cookies and cream, green tea with red bean, and berries. All are quite good, not too sweet but a little too milky for my liking. The must-try at this place is the fried sweet potato with soft serve ice cream. Crispy shell with soft mashed sweet potato, accompanied with vanilla soft serve and red bean paste, topped with your choice of syrup - mocha, strawberry, mango, macha or chocolate. For only $3.80! You can try the fried yam ball too. Sinful decadence...as with all good desserts.
P.S.: Since we're on the topic of ice cream, I would also like to recommend Island Creamery's Reverso, Cookies & Cream and Teh Tarik flavors. The bubble milk tea uzumaki at Bugis B1 and Great World City (near MacD's) is really good too - nai cha flavored jap ice cream with small pearls.
