Obsessive Chocolate Desire (OCD) Cafe – Late Night Cafe Serving All Things Chocolate
August 26, 2019
I usually need something cold in my daily diet to prevent me from going crazy in the sweltering heat. What better way to cool down than with some ice cream! Being a huge chocolate fan, when I saw that there was a new cafe serving all things chocolate, I visited as soon as I could.
The slightly controversial acronym used in their name aside, I was curious to see if their chocolate ice cream was as good as they said. OCD cafe’s specialty is, obviously, their chocolate ice cream, which come in 5 different flavours. Each has a different cacao percentage and unique origin — Madagascar 33% Milk, Ecuador 40% Milk, Belgium Dark 60%, Brazil 72% Dark, Africa 85% Dark. The ice cream was quite reasonably priced at $3.60 per scoop, or $7 for two.
There’s a pretty good variety of flavours. Some are classic, while some like the Buttery Biscoff and Avocado Gula Melaka, are more unique. You can also top up $4 for a waffle, which can come with sesame and sweet corn.
After tasting a few flavours, we decided to get the Africa 85% Dark and Avocado Gula Melaka on a sesame waffle, and the Buttery Biscoff in a cup. Although the sweet corn waffle sounded like it would be pretty interesting as well, I love sesame so I decided to get that instead!
I loved the fragrance of the black sesame in the waffle, but fans of the fluffy waffle variety might find it a little too dense. To balance out the richness of this waffle, I recommend pairing it with some lighter or more refreshing flavours.
The 85% Dark was pretty decent. It was rich without being too cloying. However, for 85% cocoa, it wasn’t as bitter as I would’ve liked, and for die-hard dark chocolate fans, this definitely can’t replace the actual thing. Although the signature should be the chocolate, my favourite flavour of the three actually turned out to be the Avocado Gula Melaka! I could really taste the avocado, and it had the perfect level of sweetness.
The Biscoff was delicious as well, but could get a little too cloying if you were eating the entire scoop yourself. If you’re a fan of this European biscuit, it’s worth a try.
The store is open till 1am from Thursday to Sunday so it’s good for some late night desserts if you’re in the area. If I visit again, I’ll go for the sweet corn waffle!
