Got gas? Barely a month after NBrew established Malaysia's first liquid nitrogen ice cream kiosk at eCurve, another purveyor of LN2 pleasures has suddenly surfaced, this time at the wonderfully convenient location of Pavilion.
Entry on NBrew @ eCurve: January 13.
Ooh My Gas (cute name) at Pavilion offers an impressive degree of minus-210-degree customization. The ordering procedure might seem complicated initially: Patrons first need to choose a base, either ice cream, gelato or soy milk.
Next, determine your flavor: everything from macadamia milk to coffee java chips, sesame to white chocolate, grape to pineapple. Then decide on toppings: cashews, pistachios, corn flakes, Reese's, Oreos, marshmallows & more.
The frosty fun begins immediately; each cup (prices start at RM12.90) takes a minute to make, with the mixes flash-frozen with liquid nitrogen & served to order.
Peanut butter alert! Our top pick: Peanut butter gelato topped with pecans. Folks will probably have their own preferences, but with the right combination of flavor & topping, Ooh My Gas ranks pretty much on par with the fabulous Cielo Dolci.

Hazelnut nutella ice cream. An absolute delight, dense, rich & smooth enough to become everyone's latest addiction.
Cinnamon ice cream, with a soy milk base & cream cheese topping, near-perfect in taste & texture. Note that customers can also specify whether they want their ice cream very sweet, moderately sweet or relatively less sweet.
Ooh My Gas OMG Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream,
Level 1, Pavilion Shopping Mall, Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur.
Nice? The cup reminds me of Baskin' Robbins. They should have used some other colours.
ReplyDeleteSuituapui: ooh, i guess with all that liquid nitrogen equipment here though, it still has a distinctive physical look :D
Delete"on par with the fabulous Cielo Dolci" ??!!... I'm heading to OMG today then !! lol
ReplyDeleteFoo Chee: hope you enjoy it! Yeah, taking the first bite of the peanut butter gelato here was really nice ... And it reminded me of how surprisingly enjoyable cielo dolci's gelato tasted, when I had it with no expectations attached on paradigm mall's opening day. =)
DeleteWow I'm surprised how this liquid nitrogen thing is taking off all at the same time! It's good to be able to choose level of sweetness. Next thing you know we'll be asked whether we want to add pearls or not. =P
ReplyDeleteDrops of contentment: yeah, the cost of setting up these liquid nitrogen places seems to be relatively high, so we probably won't see an explosion of many such places, unless profits really boom for them! Heheh, so they won't be as ubiquitous as bubble tea anytime this year :D
DeleteLet's c...soy milk + sesame + corn flakes...goodie! =)
ReplyDeleteUlric: interesting combo! Sounds like a winner. Just note, it might be my imagination, but I think the soy milk base ice cream is less creamy compared to the gelato base one, so it might be worth trying all three different bases eventually if you enjoy your first cup enough =)
DeleteHaha...got it...must try all 3 bases...not a prob! =)
DeleteUlric: yay! Enjoy :D
DeleteOh yummssss....was supposed to check them out last Saturday but the cough was still lurking around:( This Saturday!
ReplyDeleteI see some flavours that I must have:D
Missyblurkit: okie, this cough better disappear by Chinese New Year, cross fingers! And ya c with so many flavors available here, it's difficult to make a decision, heh! :D
DeleteWow what an interesting concept .. liquid N2! Haven't had the chance to try it, sounds like fun! I'm already imagining.. peanut butter and nutella with oreo! Slurp! hehe
ReplyDeleteIamthewitch: yeah, the process of using liquid n2 does seem to result in really smooth ice cream (especially at nbrew at eCurve). Heheh, sounds like you've chosen quite a nutty- chocolatey flavor for yourself! Nice :D
DeleteRM13~ sigh...
ReplyDeleteMr Lonely: quite a big cup actually. i think two people can share :D
DeleteThis place looks like it jumped out from a sci-fi movie! hehe whoopee!! Can't wait to try the pb one!!!!!!!! HAHA oh well, since I'll already be there, I should try the other flavours too :P
ReplyDeleteVien: heheh, it's impressive to see how technology is applied to make ice cream! :D and ya, i quite enjoyed the peanut butter flavor. i wanna try macadamia milk and white chocolate next :D
DeleteI know where to go when I need me some brain freezeeee
ReplyDeleteKY: you've got a cold, cold heartttttt :D
Deletewah is so smooky there....
ReplyDeleteSimple Person: heheh, let's hope the fire alarm doesn't go off! :D
DeleteErr ok... still kinda blur on the ordering procedure.
ReplyDeleteBut if it's good, it's gonna be worth it :D
Charmaine: oops, actually i guess it's not too tricky. choose your base, then choose your flavor, then choose your topping. it's fun! :D
DeletePeanut butter gelato topped with pecans!!! I will go and try that soon! :D
ReplyDeleteCK: it's really good. very rich with peanut butter flavor! :D
DeleteI love Cielo Dolci so if this is as good (with the great location), I'm going!
ReplyDeleteBaby Sumo: i give Cielo Dolci a solid A grade, and Ooh My Gas an also-solid A-minus, heheh :D
DeleteOhh...now they have it at Pavilion...good place! Hope to try it.
ReplyDeleteMelissa: hope you enjoy it! yeah, looking forward to them opening more branches throughout the klang valley, cross fingers :D
DeleteGood that you can specify sweetness levels chatime-style! It all looks fab...
ReplyDeleteYouHadYourLunch: yeah, i requested less sweet! though even that could still have been a little less sugary for me :D
DeleteAHA! Finally there's guilt-free ice cream to choose , i can also choose the sugar level of the ice cream too! YAYYY!!!!!!!!!! DEFINTIELY GOING TO TRY IT NEXT WEEEK! ;P
ReplyDeleteEunice: ya, the flavors for this ice cream taste strong enough on their own, so there's no need for extra sugar. Heheh, hope u enjoy it! =)
DeleteNice! I've heard of this place, wanted to head over too. I like the concept of flash freezing, it can produce some artsy ice cream. :)
ReplyDeleteHuai Bin: yeah, it seems to be a great concept, since the outlet is able to produce a wide range of different flavor combinations on the spot! No need for supermarket ice cream varieties anymore, heh! =)
Deletehuge peanut butter fan here. was really excited to try theirs but it tasted bland! not even any where close to cielo's. maybe their staff screwed up when mixing ingredients? may try again next time...
ReplyDeleteAiden: yikes, sad and sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy it. i wonder if that's the risk when it comes to this sort of customization, versus cielo's stricter specifications for its balance of flavors. i haven't been back here since the first time, but everything i tried then was good...
DeleteHi Aiden, thank you so much of your comment! I guess there must be some mistake made by our new service buddies, I would like to apologize of your bad experience on behalf of OMG. At OMG, we take our customer's comments very serious so i sincerely hope that we could offer you a chance back for a free tasting.
ReplyDeleteHope you don't mind to drop me a email of your contact at hello@oohmygas.com
Thank you so much! :))
Thank you so much :))
Jeff: thanks for responding to Aiden =)
DeleteSure thing Sean, happy cny! :))
