[Review] Kroffle Buffet at Walking on Sunshine Cafe

Waking up early on a weekend morning has never been my thing. But after learning that Walking on Sunshine Cafe offers an All-You-Can-Eat Kroffle Buffet at only S$14.90++, we thought... why not?

Kroffles refer to croissant-waffles. Made by cooking croissant dough on a waffle pan to take the shape of a waffle, this pastry base takes on the taste profile and texture of a croissant.

Popularized in Korea, the kroffle is the latest cafe staple that instantly became cafe goers’ favorite food item because it goes perfectly well with their go-to cafe drinks.

Available daily from 9 to 11am on the buffet menu are the following kroffles:

We were advised to order four kroffles at one go, as they should be eaten warm.

For a start, we picked the four savouries (items #5 to #8 on the menu).

The Garlic & Cream Cheese was a clear winner for both of us due to the generous servings of crispy garlic chips.

We next proceeded to the desserts, and we liked the Cinnamon and Mixed Berries ones most. Somehow, I still associate waffles with something sweet.

Overall, the croissant dough gave an interesting buttery flaky texture to the usual waffles. Admittedly, having numerous kroffles in one meal may be a bit one-dimensional, so add on a coffee or a smoothie to go with the buffet.

As this cafe boosts Korean origins, he had the Ginseng Smoothie (S$13++) which turned out really well. It provided an energising morning boost, yet was not caffeine-based.

Something noteworthy about this cafe is its garden feel. Great for those who like to take photos!

The kroffle buffet provides a good alternative for those who prefer a more value-for-money brunch experience. After all, a brunch dish (e.g. eggs benedict) at any cafe would easily set you back by S$20 already.

The 2-hour seating and ambience also allow you to slowly have your food and drinks, while catching up with friends.

Kroffles are available ala carte at S$6.90 per piece.
