Milk dessert bar

This dessert bar, known for its ice cream served at various farmers markets and street fairs, had to change its business model. During the pandemic, they swap ice creams to focus on the favorites in the cafe. They currently offer roadside service for coffee, tea, pastries, and a few savory items. We recommend a Malay curry beef sandwich and rojak or a Southeast Asian salad.
