Mrupupup bought a pint of Udders Ice Cream from their Serangoon Gardens outlet - My Village at Serangoon Gardens shopping mall 1st floor. Review - Thumbs Up! The Chocolatey Kity Kat flavour was great! - Nice smooth chocolate taste (not too sweet or bitter) - Not like those cheap local brand ice cream which can give one a bad after taste - Big chunks of kit kat wafers - Sales staff gave Mrupupup dry ice to keep the ice cream cold for one hour - Price wise about $11 was ok (Classic ice cream price) Udders got other price points for their pint like around $14 and $15 for those flavours with alcohol taste - Udders outlet was pack with many people - Udders gave free sampling till Mrupupup chose the chocolate flavour   Can see big chunks of Kit Kat Wafers - Yummy!
