Tucked away snugly in a quiet corner between a bubble tea store and comics café at newly revamped 4th level of Suntec City Convention Centre is Cottage Waffles. True to its name, the European-like eatery has a cosy interior with its red brick walls and the tantalizing scent of cooked waffles.

The recipe for these mouth-watering waffles hail from Chatelet, a town in Europe. The enterprise idea struck when the business owner from Hong Kong took a liking to the sweet delights and bought over the recipe to start the first flagship store in Singapore. From there, Cottage Waffles was born.

It might seem like a simple snack but Cottage Waffles is surprisingly innovative with the much loved dessert. The menu boasts of a wide variety of spreads that include: caramel; blackcurrant and raspberry; the old school combination of sugar and butter; western bacon bits and butter; traditional Chinese red bean paste; honey butter and savoury baked tuna. There’s also the take away special – freshly baked Cottage Waffle sandwiched with a slice of Super Premium Ice-cream, which is a contrastive combination of piping hot waffles and ice cream.

Waffles are priced at $2.50 each, which is rather affordable considering the location and well thought of décor that the outlet offers. The quaint café is a considerable option to chill out if you’re planning on spending some time on purely rest and relaxation.

It also wouldn’t hurt to splurge a little on the fondue set which comes in portions for 2 ($14.90) or 3 ($28.80). Comprising of Cottage Waffle, bite-size ice cream, fresh fruits, marshmallows, roasted nuts, hot Swiss chocolate and iced fruit tea, the sinful treat is definitely worth the money.
