We had some time to spare before heading for church service last Saturday, so we decided to visit Haji Lane with the kids. Frankly, my impression of Haji Lane has always been that it’s an interesting place with lots of fashion shops, vintage finds and colourful walls with graffiti. I didn’t think it would be a place that’s interesting for my kids. Turned out I was wrong! They had a great time exploring Haji Lane! =)

We first had lunch at the famous prawn noodle shop there. The soup was very flavourful, but for $4 per bowl, I thought the portion was very little.

Walking into Haji Lane after lunch, Joey was all excited when she saw all the pretty graffiti on the walls. =) She kept asking me why all the walls and windows were painted so prettily!

Then we decided to try the ice-cream at the only ice-cream stall along Haji Lane. Turned out to be a really nice surprise!

It was a very small shop space, but pretty kawaii-looking.

There were outdoor seats. Pink!

The inside of the ice-cream stall was cosy and very thoughtful. There were retro games like Snap, Donkey, Old Maid card games, Snakes & Ladder board game, which we used to play as kids, available at every table.

They even had five stones, OMG!!!

Jenga should be quite fun if a group of friends came together. =)

The displays on their counters were colourful and interesting. I love it when shops make special effort to ‘dress up’ their shop space and make it interesting. =)

Coloured chalks were provided for customers to doodle on their chalkboard on the wall. Nice idea.

They do not have super a lot of flavours, but they do offer pretty unique flavours. But we stuck to our original love – Chocolate!

Our ice-cream looked & tasted great!

$4 for a single scoop & an additional rainbow sprinkles topping.

We took the seats right inside the store (There were only a total of 3 seating areas inside the store) and it was a lovely cosy corner with sofa & warm lighting. =) I really love the space here.

It was a nice place to have some family time. Ice-cream always works wonders for kids, isn’t it true?? =)

Plus, the ice-cream was really yummy!

Most importantly, the kids enjoyed themselves and had a great time hanging out with their old folks. =P

We’ll bring the kids back to Haji Lane again, I’m sure. It’s a really neat place with lots of little surprises! =)
