Located in the upscale residential Venus Colony, Amelie’s Creamery is housed in a charming bungalow that offers lots of parking space and even valet service. It is particularly lovely by night — its illuminated trees and twinkling lights lending the place a rather whimsical, fairy-tale like atmosphere. Enter, and you’re bound to be pleasantly surprised by the tasteful décor, the ample and comfortable seating, and the whimsical lighting fixtures. Many large windows allow for natural light to enter, and the pale apple-green and white walls are sure to enchant you. Ice cream scoopers of various colours are arranged on one wall, another is home to a collection of hand mirrors, and others are wallpapered with book pages and interesting art. An agreeable combination of retro-vintage, fun and original, the ambience is perfect for a group outing, a solo lunch, or a romantic date.

Amelie’s menu of continental food does not overwhelm, but there’s no dearth of options either. The menu has a small but tasty range of dishes to browse through. The portions may not be very large thpugh. Choose from all day breakfasts, delicious baos, flatbreads and interesting appetisers. We particularly enjoyed the unique flavour of the cottage cheese sticks stuffed with capers and gherkins. If you’re only there for a quick revitalising drink, you won’t be disappointed either. The mocktails range from a refreshing cucumber-apple green mojito to the curious-sounding jalapeno lemonade.

Amelie’s truly surpasses itself with its impressive array of fine cakes and desserts plated with the perfection of the Michelin-star chefs we keep hearing about on out favourite cooking shows. Be sure to try the goat cheese and strawberry popsicle and savour the explosion of flavour on your tongue. Or enjoy the sensation of the saffron baked yoghurt with pistachio crumble melting in your mouth. The tiny but incredible dessert,Textures of Dark Chocolate with olive oil and sea salt anglaise is out of this world – an explosion of flavours! And you have to try the chilly popcorn flavoured ice cream here. The thrill and disbelief that follow the coolness on the tongue when the spicy aftertaste of authentic popcorn hits your palette is something worth experiencing!
