Momolato, the popular gelato cafe, has opened its second outlet in Bugis, located at 723 North Bridge Road. Known for its premium gelato and exciting fusion desserts, the new location promises a delightful mix of sweet and savory offerings, combining the latest food trends with Momolato’s signature gelato crafted by award-winning gelato master Sharon Tay.
A Gelato Champion’s Legacy
Sharon Tay, founder of Momolato, is no stranger to the gelato world. In 2017, she won the top prize at the Asia Pacific Gelato World Tour, and two years later, she represented Singapore in the Gelato World Tour Finals in Italy. This experience and expertise are evident in the rich, flavorful gelato that Momolato is known for.
Upon entering the cafe, customers are welcomed by a vibrant display of 24 gelato flavors, with prices starting from $5.30 for a single scoop, with an additional $1 for premium flavors. Popular choices include Hibiscus Apple, Chocolate Hazelnut Kunafa, and Yuzu Hibiscus Flower, with the Hibiscus Apple being a standout favorite. The refreshing apple bits and delicate floral undertones make it a perfect choice for a sunny day.
For those seeking an adventurous flavor, the Mango Chilli Lime gelato is a must-try. While the name may suggest a spicy kick, the flavor balances the tangy sweetness of mango with a subtle hint of spice, creating a unique, refreshing treat.
Unique Desserts to Satisfy Your Cravings
Momolato offers more than just gelato. One of the main highlights is the Kunafa Waffle Series. The Sicilian Pistachio Kunafa Waffle ($21) is a showstopper, featuring a thick waffle topped with a layer of kunafa, caramelized bananas, fresh figs, and a scoop of gelato for a delightful mix of textures and flavors. The waffle’s boat shape adds a creative touch, making it an exciting twist on the usual waffle offerings.
Another must-try dessert is the Korean Strawberry Cheesecake Fried Mochi Gelato ($12), a crispy golden-brown fried mochi with soft, chewy insides, paired with a sweet strawberry drizzle. While delicious, the cheesecake flavor could be more pronounced in the gelato.
The Yellow Fever ($16), a mango pudding paired with coconut gelato, offers a sweet-tangy combination, with the mango sauce enhancing the spongy consistency of the pudding, creating a refreshing dessert experience.
Satisfying Savory Options
Momolato’s menu extends beyond desserts, offering savory dishes that complement the sweet treats. The Fried Buttermilk Garlic Chicken Waffle ($16.90) features crispy chicken tenders served with thick, hearty waffles. The tender chicken, lightly battered for the perfect crunch, pairs excellently with the waffles, making this dish a satisfying meal on its own.
For burger enthusiasts, the Momo Smashed Burger ($22) delivers a juicy, double-layered Australian grass-fed beef patty, topped with cheddar, cheese sauce, caramelized onions, pickles, and crispy fried mozzarella. It’s paired with freshly fried fries, completing a hearty meal.
Another viral item is the Cheddar Cheese Coin ($6.50), a cheesy, savory treat that became popular in 2024. The crispy exterior and gooey cheese interior make it a perfect snack or side dish.
A Cozy and Convenient Spot
Momolato’s second outlet is slightly larger than its Haji Lane counterpart, offering a cozy 20-seater space with a warm, inviting interior. Located just a nine-minute walk from Bugis or Jalan Besar MRT Station, it’s an ideal spot for dessert lovers seeking a quiet place to relax and enjoy quality food.
While the prices may be on the higher side, the quality of the food makes it worth the splurge. Plus, for those with late-night cravings, Momolato stays open until 1 a.m. on select days, offering the perfect solution for night owls.
