Heard about the new My Gofre that had opened its doors fairly recently around the Blk 74X neighbourhood in Bedok Reservoir; this neighbourhood at Bedok Reservoir is one that is particularly known for being an enclave for individually-run cafes considering how they it has seen quite a number of cafes come and go as well — establishments that we had visited in this neighbourhood will include that of the very first location of Refuel Cafe, Scoopy Doo Handmade Gelato, Reiwa Soba Honten 令和十割そば本店 and SaffronSips Indian Restaurant & Bar. My Gofre is situated at the foot of Blk 742 Bedok Reservoir Road, and takes over the former premises of the now-defunct outlet of The Daily Scoop. The store has seen a bit of a change of its layout to perhaps better make use of the space in the area of the shop right after its entrance — that being said, there are some fittings where the original counter and espresso bar, as well as the ceiling lamps have been retained alongside some of the dining furniture as well; the tables being arranged in a format to accommodate diners visiting the establishment in up to groups of (4) pax. Being an ice-cream parlour at heart, My Gofre serves up a variety of ice-cream flavours that are prominently displayed in the display chiller at the counter; patrons do get to have their ice-cream in a cup or in a cone — there are also options to opt for Classic Waffles, Waffles with Berries and Mochi Waffle as well. Apart from ice-cream, My Gofre also serves up açai bowls, while beverages offered at My Gofre consists of espresso-based specialty coffee, matcha, drinking chocolate, soda and Rootbeer Float Mug — just to name a few.

It is interesting to note that My Gofre actually does not make their own ice-cream; in fact, the ice-cream at My Gofre seems to be sourced from The Daily Scoop — evidently so from the names of the ice-cream that they are retailing. Skimming through the selections of the ice-cream that they have to offer, we found ourselves going for the Salted Mister Brown + Rum & Raisins Ice-Cream. My Gofre does not describe on the flavours of the ice-cream that they have to offer; we did notice that the Salted Mister Brown is an ice-cream with a salted caramel ice-cream base while it does come with bits of brownies swirled in between. One can definitely notice the slight hint of saltish-ness amidst the caramel-esque sweetness within the ice-cream, whilst this is complimented by a familiar hint of chocolate that comes with a bit of a bite. Meanwhile, the Rum & Raisins is one that would appeal to those whom are looking for a conventional ice-cream flavour that comes with the infusion of liquor — there is definitely an evident note of rum that runs at the back of the tongue within the ice-cream itself, while there are nibs of raisins that provides a bit of a bite within fruit pulp that gives a contrast of textures with the smooth and creamy ice-cream. It was only a bit of a pity that the ice-cream wasn’t stored at the optimal temperature; the consistency being a bit softer than that of what one would typically expect out of ice-cream.

During the same visit, we also went with the Latte (Hot) at My Gofre — it is noted that the espresso-based specialty coffee at My Gofre is being brewed using beans roasted by Tanamera Coffee & Roastery. We did find that their Latte (Hot) is a respectable attempt that is worth commending especially for a cuppa being brewed by an ice-cream parlour; one that carries a light body and roasty, nutty and earthy flavour profile — not too milky, whilst there is also an attempt on latte art for the cuppa which is definitely better than what some other ice-cream parlours would serve up. A cuppa that works well as a mid-day perk-me-up. It does seem like a bit of a deja-vu situation here with My Gofre — perhaps it is an acknowledgement of The Daily Scoop having a fanbase at Bedok Reservoir; the fact that My Gofre serves up ice-cream sourced from The Daily Scoop does seem to allow residents to be able to savour their ice-creams once again despite the shop now being occupied by a different tenant. Whilst not the entire range of flavours at The Daily Scoop are offered at My Gofre at any one point of time, My Gofre has mentioned that flavours are available on rotation, allowing patrons to still enjoy a variety of what The Daily Scoop offers whenever they make their return periodically at My Gofre. With the impending closure of the nearby Scoopy Doo Handmade Gelato being set at end August 2025 at the time of writing, My Gofre might be the location that residents around the area would find themselves gathering at for a convenient spot within the vicinity for ice-cream and waffles in time to come.
