While looking for a clean restroom in Megamall (for some reason I have to say this because the nearest restroom lead me to the plates) my sister and myself saw these posh - lookin' plates and impulsively bought them for future use. Buying them was not part of the weekly budget but I thought, what the heck, they are quite nice, and cheap too!
On a totally different level, while paying for the plates, the Cashier was strategically situated near the goodies and sweets section and something caught my attention. Or in this case, two somethings:
One is Royal Family's Mochi Choco Ball (imported from Taiwan, i think, wikied it.) which is actually a Japanese glutinous rice confection filled with strawberry jam! Okay, my one weakness is strawberry so I went ahead and tried it. How to describe it? Think chocolate-coated strawberry-flavored tikoy filled with strawberry jam coated with marshamallow. Beat that!
It's like a mini strawberry explosion, and to be honest, i couldn't quite understand the taste! It's like, it tasted sweet, then sticky because of the glutinous rice, then sweet again because of the jam, then sticky again because of the mallows... Yikes! Had me confused!
Another is Elsa's Story Lemon Pastry Bites. 2 words: HEAVEN-LY. One bite and a thousand (a bit exaggerated) flavors tickled my tastebud. I taste cinnamon, i taste lemon, a bit of pineapple, some raisins, some orange, some apples... I don't know how they were able to roll it all into one small bite size pastry but i definitely would recommend this treat. I only had one bite, there's still about 11 here. Let me know if you want one! :)
