Making ice cream is like making friends: Wu Mingxian insists on natural, locally sourced ingredients

Walking into the "Ohsglt" ice cream shop, I was just about to start chatting with the owner, Wu Ming-hsien, when a middle-aged man walked in carrying a bottle of red wine: "Ming-hsien, that apricot red wine ice cream you made last time was really good. Want to try using this bottle of wine I brought?" After talking for a while, I learned that this man was not a wine company salesperson. His home was nearby, and he counted as a regular at Ohsglt. That day he brought a bottle of wine, ordered a serving of ice cream, and before leaving also bought three jin of lemons.

No concentrated fruit jam: seeking environmentally friendly seasonal fruit

To expand sales, Wu Ming-hsien cooperates with other shops, consigning products with one another. As a result, coffee, bread, and other items can be bought at Ohsglt, and Ohsglt ice cream is also available at other restaurants and cafes.

Ohsglt's business hours are from 12:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. Around the time people get off work, more people begin pouring into Ohsglt. It sells not only ice cream, but is also like a multifunctional space where people can chat casually and hold meetings.

At first, Wu Ming-hsien wanted to use making ice cream as a way to connect with people, and now it seems he is on the path to realizing his dream.
