I bought a Beecrazy voucher for $28 that was worth $56 purchase. Seeing as this was new and they seemed serve ice cream in rolls, I thought why not give it a try.Boyfriend, his sister and I came and decided to buy two ice cream flavors with my voucher.It's a small shop with a shop window showing someone rolling ice cream.

It's a small shop with a shop window showing someone rolling ice cream. They had a few flavors such as strawberry, blueberry, chocolate, matcha and sesame. It included one topping and a squeeze of whipped cream. Price $38. I wanted strawberry but boyfriend said he didn't hear me so he ordered matcha and sesame. I did notice they used real frozen strawberries instead of strawberry powder to mash into the ice cream, so was kinda sad that he didn't hear my order for strawberry.
Anyways .... this is a video I took of them making the ice cream. Those familiar with Cold Stone Creamery (or even Holly Brown here in Hong Kong), they mash up ice cream with the various flavors on a frozen bench top. Snow Country does the same except they roll it in a roll at the end. Here's the video. I don't know how to upload it on OpenRice, so here's my link:

They also served other items that included cheese udon and Block 18's famous doggy style noodles. But honestly, I wouldn't order Block 18's noodles here as there was not seating room, just all standing. At least Block 18 had chairs and tables even if they didn't have air conditioning. And the original shop is close by anyways, so go get the real thing. These guys are just heating up what the original shop is just transporting over.
There was a bit of confusion with the orders as it became busy. The computer ordering system went down and they had several orders mixed up. At one point they made an extra order and they stood around confused as what to do next. It took 45 minutes for our order. I know they opened not too long but it seemed very disorganized so they have to work that out some how.
Ice cream texture was chewy and not smooth. It didn't feel very ice cream like. The whipped cream added was flavorless.
Sesame flavor had some sesame flavor. It was ok.
Matcha flavor had no matcha flavor at all. I don't recommend this flavor.
I don't think I'd return again for full price. Ice cream isn't very good. It's a nice gimmick, but it didn't work for me as the taste wasn't that good. Staff really need to work out being more organized if they expect it to be more busy.
