A little cafe located in the Telok Ayer district, Sarnies serves up some pretty mean sandwiches.
But what really caught our attention was the Cocowhip. It’s like a froyo, but not so much like one.
Made with only coconut water, vegan stabilisers and organic bio-fermented coconut, this frozen dessert is vegan, gluten and dairy free.
Try their Cocowhip Breakfast Bowl. It’s creamy and delicious Cocowhip topped with a fruit salad and a medley of nuts & gogi berries.
We won’t say no to healthy and delicious “ice-cream”.
