Lickety SG doesn’t just serve your traditional waffles. 

The honeycomb shape of the Hong Kong-inspired egglet waffle gives it a distinctly crispy shell that gives way to a soft, eggy interior. Pair this with unique ice cream flavours like earyl grey and fig or purple lavender.

Also, can we also talk about their adorable aesthetic?

Legend has it that we have a “separate tummy for dessert”, and we sure hope that’s true, because the mains like the Summer Chicken Stew and Creamy Mushrooms on Sourdough are must-tries.

Whimsically – and rather aptly, we’d add – named the Woaffles, these dense Belgian-style grid waffles are good enough to have on their own.

But who’s going to say no to a playful hot-and-cold combination with some ice cream atop?

Especially if they come in flavours like lavender white chocolate and toasted marshmallow. In the shape of a unicorn. Sold.

Here for comfort food? You’re at the right place.

Their signature Mac & Cheese Waffle is basically everyone’s fave cravings put together – mac and cheese encased within fluffy waffles, infused with truffle oil and topped with melty mozzarella (dat cheese pull tho!).

For dessert, dig into the Red Velvet Waffle Stack, with white chocolate ice cream sandwiched in between and drizzled with rose syrup.
