Our take: Grin Affair offers a homey cafe experience, specializing in jarred desserts and ice cream.

The 'Jarlato' concept, featuring ice cream in jars, is a popular choice, with flavours like Lavender Honey and Cookies & Cream receiving praise.

Many reviewers highlight the quality of their ice cream, particularly the Hojicha Latte and Blue Pea Lavender, noting its richness and satisfying taste.

The waffles are generally well-received, often described as crispy, though some prefer a crispier texture.

While the Earl Grey ice cream is a standout for some, other flavours like Seasalt Hojicha can be polarizing, with one reviewer finding it too salty.

We think the cafe's friendly team and comfortable seating contribute to a pleasant atmosphere.

It's a solid option for dessert in Bishan, especially if you're looking for unique ice cream flavours in a relaxed setting.

We'd recommend trying the Jarlato, but be mindful that some ice cream flavours might incur extra charges.
