DOPA (Tanjong Pagar)

DOPA (short for the happiness hormone, dopamine 😇) is the second outlet of Dopa Dopa Creamery. We have been fans of this unique nut-based gelataria since their inception at Clarke Quay! This December, DOPA is switching things up with 3 new gelato flavours.

Milk based, this was different from their normal pistachio gelato. The familiar pistachio nuttiness comes from the candied pistachios and house-made pistachio praline, which confers an additional sweetness.

The mascarpone cheese base was luxuriously creamy but light on the palate. When paired with a bite of waffles, the blueberry flavour stood out and the cookie crumbles added a satisfying crunch!

By leveraging the soursop’s creamy texture, DOPA has created a super refreshing sorbet which was so aromatic. The intense soursop flavours came as a pleasant surprise for us!

Those who’ve tried DOPA’s 𝗪𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗹𝗲𝘀 ($𝟲) would know that they are a little different. Instead of being the usual crispy type, we found that their waffles were particularly light and air, almost like a kueh! The staff later shared that their waffle batter is 𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗲-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱, which probably contributed to its fluffiness.

At DOPA, you can also enjoy a 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗮 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲 ($𝟱.𝟯𝟬) 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗼 ($𝟴.𝟱𝟬) with your gelato. Special mention to the affogato where you can pick any of their gelato flavours to have with your espresso shot. (we got their delightfully nutty pistachio!!) But beware that their coffee ☕️ is strong!

I just want to passby after walking towards Neil Road and just want to grab some gelato from dopa. They did selling Christmas Flavour until end of year ? But then I didn't really interested on other flavour because I just wanted to try matcha flavour if got chance. I need to wait for next year instead :") Hazelnut Praline just taste like nutty flavour and in Christmas vibes or mood that you can call.

Double scoops at $2
Cone +$1
Premium flavours +$1

Choose 2 premium flavours, the Roasted Pistachio and the Maple Peacan.

Both where pretty damn good. Especially the Maple Peacan with peacan nuts mixed into the gelato. Roasted Pistachio also damn good, o e of the better tasty Pistachio Gelato I had.

Gelato here melts very quickly though, despite being inside their strong air-conditioned outlet, my Pistachio gelato already dripping.
