10 Best Ice Cream Spots To Try During This Hot Season
We, Malaysians are only familiar with two kinds of weather. It’s either raining like cats and dogs or it’s burning hot. Well, the latter seems to be more appropriate.
We can’t deny that we are still kids at heart and ice cream is certainly the right problem solver. So don’t break a sweat because here are our 10 ice cream spots you can find in Klang Valley.
1. The Puntry by Puns Ice Cream
Like its’ brand, they name every flavour of their ice cream after a pun. You can find quirky names like Eh! Matcha!, Gimme S’more and Berry Naise. So unique, if you asked me. The flavour list is updated every 1st and 3rd week of the month, so if you wanna place an order – do drop them a DM. With that said, the brand also just moved to a new location where they’d be whipping some tasty waffles and pancakes. FTW! If you’re a funny person, pretty sure you’d come out of The Puntry feeling more punny.
