Photo by kaoko My first experience with Royce’ was in ‘06, when a friend specially couriered a small unassuming “care package” to me. It unraveled to reveal a slim... Read more →

Hey Chocolat, Your Cupcakes Rock!

Lately, my body has been piled high on chocolaty goodness. Aside from visiting Ricciotti for their decadent lava cakes, I have also been snacking on these delicious cupcakes baked by one of my readers. Hey Chocolat sent me a batch of her freshly baked cupcakes. She even made them in her signature flavor, the Original Darn Good Chocolate Cupcakes. That works for me; they... Read more →

Ricciotti Italian Deli & Pastry – Decadent Desserts

I don’t blog about desserts as often as I’d like. And that’s really because I rarely have any. After a sumptuous main course I find that there’s barely any room for dessert! But here’s one dessert that I love most in the world — chocolate lava cake. Not even a bellyful of pork ribs and buffalo wings can keep me from wanting it once the... Read more →

Swiss Culture – Nothing Beats Swiss Chocolate

I’m always up for a good chocolate fondue. This being my second time dining at Swiss culture and having their chocolate fondue, I knew I was in for a chocolatey good time. Just as I had expected, Swiss culture did not disappoint. But of course one should always save the best for last, isn’t it? We started off with our main courses. Swiss culture has been around... Read more →

tcc – Also the Chocolate Connoisseur

There are several reasons why I love tcc. Being a coffee lover, I am very particular about coffee. Among the more common café chains here, I find that tcc serves the best coffee. They have the largest coffee menu that would cater to the most diverse taste buds, including brews, coolers, lattes, frappuccinos, affagattos, and liqueur coffee that is served flambé.... Read more →

Maestro Bistro – Sweet Chocolatey Goodness [Closed]

just one final food post before I leave for Bali (perhaps then I would be blogging on Balinese food!). dinner was at Orchard Cineleisure today. I have walked past the maestro bistro at the second level umpteen times but this is the first time I am actually patronising the place. My most vivid impression of the bistro is that it sells all kinds of desserts and has gorgeous... Read more →
