Add this new joint at PoMo onto your list of places to cool down when temperatures rise. Taking over defunct Hasu Confection's premises, Shots & Scoops (as its name suggests) serves coffee as well as housemade gelato. It's a great place for students in the area to gather and chat, as well as for weekend shoppers to drop by for a bit of a treat while escaping the Orchard Road crowd. Go for the Waffle Cone (from $1) β€” there are several flavours, including red velvet and charcoal, and top that with a scoop or two of Ice Cream (from $3.80). Burpple Tastemaker Xing Wei Chua feels that flavours are on the conventional side, but he did single out a few inventive creations like the Lavender Stracciatella, which combines the floral notes of lavender with bittersweet chocolate chunks. Wash that down with one of the aromatic espresso-based coffees (from $4), brewed using a blend of Brazilian and Sumatran beans.
Avg Price: $5 per person
