Not a long line to order, but a long line to wait for our food, especially at peak tea time (4:30pm). Had the signature 'Night Wolf' (the sundae with the eggettes) and the '3:15'. Definitely would recommend sharing as even though I love sweet stuff, but this is sweet overload! 5 of us shared 2 cups.

Night Wolf:
Loved the dark chocolate gelato, makes everything appear less sweet (hence you eat more o.o)
The passion fruit panna cotta was just too outstandingly sour, though on it's own it tastes very refreshing.
Caramelized bananas were a nice surprise in terms of taste and texture.
Crumbs and what not were visible but didn't make much of a difference in the eating experience.
Eggettes good, could have been crispier! I get that they have unique flavours, but so do the local stalls outside.
In general, too many layers, too many things going on, and not sure if they all exactly match well in the same cup.
3:15
Chocolate cookie was chewy and went well with the vanilla ice cream. Classic pairing.
Jasmine panna cotta! Yum! Interesting! Not too bitter.
Some sweet/sour jelly like cubes in side (fruit?) added texture, though I wouldn't have minded without.
Again, I like everything individually but when eaten together, I have some reservations, and my friends say I'm an experimental eater, always trying the weird things on the menu.
The sundaes or parfaits or whatever you want to call them, are pre-made and kept in a fridge (I assume this is why the shop opens at 1pm). Which basically means we waited for the eggettes to be made (one person, 4 burners) for almost 30 minutes. Plus the soft gelato on top, but that was just a few seconds. Yes, there were 8 orders before ours, but still. Which leads to my personal thought, for the speed of things, maybe the owner should have collaborated with an existing famous 'gei dan jai' stall - like a spin-off. That way efficiency, consistency, taste, would come in one package!
Anyway, after all the hype and me being afraid of missing out, I don't think I missed out too much. I didn't have much of a 'I can't wait to have another one' or 'I wonder what their next flavour will be' urge, though I did enjoy indulging my sweet tooth on a Friday afternoon at work.
5 for hygiene because I saw the staff cleaning the eggette maker after each eggette was out.
