Once Upon A Milkshake

Once Upon A Milkshake (OUAM, pronounced “ohm”) derived from fairytale phrase "Once upon a time....." and it's owner Mr Alvin Ng is someone who loves ice-creams and milkshakes. He wanted his products to be “premium but without the premium prices” so he figured the best way was to use quality ice creams to achieve the desire products and sell them at affordable prices.



Their ordering menu is very cartoon like and innovative menu. And to make your order of milkshake or ice-cream you just have to follow these 3 simple steps:-

1. Decide on whether you want a milkshake (mini or regular) or an ice cream (scoops or pint).

2. Choose from ten flavours, each one represented by a cute character such as Agent Strawberry and Spooky Mocha.

3. Optional: You can to add extra toppings such as chocolate pearls, peanuts, crushed chocolate chip cookies and etc.

Chocolate Truffle Castle Milkshake (back) wins the heart of all chocolate lovers with it's rich and mouth watering chocolate milkshake together with some extra chocolate bits for bite. Mangonista Milkshake(front) which is a fragrant Mango flavour ice-cream milkshake that suits those who prefer something more refreshing and light.

Regular Agent Strawberry Milkshake that serves with generous amount of tangy real strawberries. According to some read up, they used 100% fresh strawberries to make their ice cream that customers who order this will get to taste the real strawberries in it.

Regular Grumbling Raisin Milkshake served with alcoholic rum ice cream and rum-soaked raisin.

And for those staying in Singapore, does this look familiar to you like one of the KFC AM Breakfast - Blueberry Pancakes?
