Food: Dough Creamery puts a delectable twist on a frozen treat

Dough Creamery -- the very same Dough Creamery listed down in Zomato's Bago Bantay -- is a new food kiosk that opened up in SM North Edsa, on December 7, 2018. It can be found on the Second Floor of the North Towers. It's hard to miss with its iconic blue-and-white themed logo, plus it's the first food stand you'll see when you turn the corner.

I'd love to give this store a 5-star rating on Google Maps, but the shop isn't on the map yet (literally...) Nevertheless, I want to write about the shop now, and that's the whole point of having a blog, so my experiences and observances are as below.

The sign is a bit bright, but Dough Creamery is open for business behind me.

They offer three types of frozen treats: The Spindle, Ice Dog, and the Waffle Pop. As the name of the shop and some of the menu items imply, the food they serve are made by combining bread and ice cream one way or another. It's no secret that Filipinos are fond of Sorbetes (dirty ice cream) sandwiched between hamburger buns. Dough Creamery also offers some ice cream-themed beverages, such as soda floats, and Matcha milk tea floats.

Since the shop just opened when I checked it out, the Ice Dog, Waffle Pop  and the drinks weren't available yet, so it was just me and the Spindle. I was able to order and enjoy a plain Spindle at the fair price of 69Php.

The spindle as a whole is big and delicious relative to the price. On one hand, there's just about enough ice cream to go around to satisfy one person, and Dough Creamery's unique, deep-fried bread cone is firm and quite filling. On the other hand, the ice cream isn't very special, and it melts fairly quickly; the bread cone is unique, but it's a bit too smooth for its paper sleeve; so you have to be careful to keep the spindle from slipping out of your grip.

Dough Creamery's Menu (sorry if it's a bit blurry and distant)

If you want to add a bit more flavor to your spindle (or ice dog, or waffle pop) you can avail for either their special or premium toppings (for a small price), which they drizzle all over your ice cream. There are plenty to choose from, like Cheese or Caramel under Special, and Peanut Butter & Blueberry Jelly under Premium.

My first visit to Dough Creamery was quite pleasant. I haven't eaten ice cream in a long while and it was a good reminder on why we should be having this frozen treat as a desert way more often. The employees and the people running the shop were very enjoyable to talk to, and they were also very accommodating. If you're a huge fan of icy treats then you'd surely be coming back to Dough Creamery every now and then to satisfy that craving.
