    Likle the waffles there and I always go there on Tuesday. Seem like evey outlet is usually very packed on Tuesday due to their Waffles Day's Promotion.

    There got a few different types of waffles and my fav has to be chocolate waffle where they mixed chocolate chip into the waffle. Together with the chocolate waffle, I will add in a scoop of ice creams, a lot of flavours to choose from, my fav is macadiam nut ice cream (paradon for the spelling).

    Eat their waffles with jz maple syrup is also good enough. They used to have free flow of plain water, however now got to buy the small bottle of water from them. Bad move. Hmm....

      They cheat, on Tuesdays at least

      I'm very unhappy about the way they trick you into paying for extras that you don't want.

      On Tuesdays, you get waffles at half price. So being the bargain hunter, the girlfriend and I went to this branch for a large waffle. We wanted ice-cream with that. Then, the guy taking the order asked, "Would you like strawberry or chocolate sauce on top?"

      It felt odd, the question. But I didn't give it too much thought. So I replied, "Chocolate sauce."

      I only realized after my order was served that the chocolate sauce didn't taste very good with the waffles. I then checked the receipt only to see that I have been charged and extra 50 cents for chocolate sauce. What pisses me off is that they used that common sales tactic to trick customers. What pisses me off even more is that a cafe/restaurant like Gelaré would stoop to this level. The correct answer to that question should have been, "I would like to have the maple syrup that best suits the waffles and by my recollection, free. Thank you."

      It is just like the unscrupulous trick question Long John Silvers' used to ask their customers, "Medium or large drink?" when the set meal you ordered only has a small drink.

      The quality of the waffles and ice-cream is still good, but be sharp when you order waffles on Tuesdays.

      And I hope the management fires that guy who asked, "Strawberry or chocolate sauce?"

        Wahaha! That's so funny genesis! For me, I usually take just the waffle and add a scope of ice-cream. Plain and simple is yummy!

        when you see the bill, you should try asking: "You mean the sauce isn't for free? I have to pay for it?" maybe, they won't charge if you ask like that..
