100+ Flavors of Ice Cream in Carousel Creamery, Greenhills
After a statisfying lunch experience in Dohtonbori near Greenhills Promenade, we all felt that we needed to do a follow up by having ice cream for desserts. Luckily, there is a very popular ice cream store just below the floor where Dohtonbori is. It goes by the name Carousel Creamery, and I'm going to share with you more about it here in this blog post.
The Creamery
The interior of Carousel Creamery is both artsy and adorable. It lets you feel sweetened up just by being there looking around. This kind of ambiance makes it ideal for a casual date, a barkada catchup or a family bonding (especially those with kids).
Carousel of Flavors
There are over a hundred of flavors to choose from here in Carousel Creamery, and a lot of them are the unusual ones such as those that combine the seemingly uncombinables in the world of ice cream. One example will be the beer and chicharon flavor. It's too bizarre, right?
Anyway, I got to try 6 flavors during that visit, and I'm happy to share with you what we thought of them. Let's start off with this single scoop serving (P85) of "cookies and mint cream". (Sorry, I forgot the actual name).
This flavor was remarkably playful. It got this fine creaminess that went well with the occasional crunch from the cookie bits. The minty overall provided a playful twist to the taste.

The White Chocolate Almond Fudge (leftmost in the photo)
This flavor had this wonderful creaminess which paired well with the thick heavenly fudge you'll taste and feel in between bites.
The Mango Jubilee
Although the mango was pronounced in this flavor, I found it relatively ordinary with its sufficient creaminess and sweetness.
The Dark Side
This flavor, which is equivalent to dark chocolate, was highly memorable with its "thick creaminess" and extremely delightful bittersweet-ness. It may be the best dark chocolate ice cream I'd ever had.
The Green Tea
This Green Tea was very distinct with its authentic grassy feel and taste. It was the least creamy among those we tried, but this worked to its advantage because the "roughness" added to its authenticity. Hence, I would say that this is perfect for those who are looking for Green Tea ice cream that is more real.
The Malted Choco Crunch (rightmost in the photo)
This one was rather "exciting" for the mouth with the crunch (but I found it a bit uncomfortable, since it was somehow "sticky"). The taste wasn't bad, but I just prefer the other ones here.
