Cinnamon melts @ McCafe

I have always wanted to try the Cinnamon melts after seeing them available in the US.

They are basically pieces of baked dough with cinnamon and cream cheese on top.
Before it is heated up, you can see the solid white icing on top.
However I forgot to take a picture of it when it was in the glass cabinet.

After it is heated, the sauce on top is liquid, but slightly like translucent melted butter because it contains cream cheese and there is thick cinnamon powder mixed in the sauce.

It was really nice, however if you do not like it that sweet, you can remove some of the sauce.

The cream cheese sauce was slightly gritty with crystallised sugar particles in it.
I can’t remember the name of that shop in the UK, but it tasted exactly the same, however that shop solely sold that snack but the name of the snack was nothing similar to Cinnamon melts, thats why I cant remember the name.

 

 

Cinnamon banana fritters @ 五代同糖

Found this dessert shop because it was located round the corner from Chung's dessert.

When you walk into the shop there is a fruity scent similar to fruit syrups used for making Taiwanese fruit teas.
Anyway because the chocolate noodles were good last time, I ordered it again.
I also ordered the banana fritters with cinnamon as well.

Chocolate jelly noodles:
The chocolate jelly noodles had the wafer rolls which were not given at the Hang Hau branch, and the noodles were cut nicely and more manageable.
As there was a speck of green tea ice-cream in the chocolate ice-cream, I was beginning to wish it was mint chocolate ice-cream, but they only had green tea, chocolate or vanilla.
If the milk was mixed with baileys or even mocha the dessert would have been perfect.
But apart from that it was fun watching the milk turn brown by the cocopops.

Cinnamon banana fritters:
I thought this was quite creative because cinnamon is usually paired with apple.
The dessert tasted quite nice, but the bananas were sligthly sour and starchy.

Tortillas and Fried chicken at Pizzahut

Last year they had the pizza with six different cheeses called cheesy 6 and this year they have come up with the 7-cheese pizza with added Provolone.

Anyway, I was meant to try this pizza, but then I saw other stuff on the menu and ended up trying those.

The items were similar to the ones served at Spaghetti house.
It was interesting that they have created a dish similar to poutine and American fries with the use of different sauces on top.

In the end ordered: Crispy Chicken Strips with French Fries, Prawns Tomato Tortilla, Squid Ink Risotto with Shrimp in Lobster Sauce and Baked Cinnamon Apple Crispy Bread bites with Vanilla Ice-cream.

Crispy Chicken Strips with French Fries
It reminded me of chicken at Spaghetti house, so I ordered it.
When they arrived, the chips were overdone. The chips and chicken was too salty that it stung and the chips tasted like they were soaked in salted water before they were fried.
Apart from that, it took a long time for the fries and chicken to cool down.

Product shot: Prawns Tomato Tortilla

 

Prawns Tomato Tortilla:
Just wanted to eat something similar to a pizza, and this was basically a tortilla covered with cheese and prawns similar to the 7-cheese one, so I ordered that.
Anyway I liked the way they used the tortilla base because it was extremely thin and crispier than the thin crust one.
The texture was similar to filo pastry at the edges.

Squid Ink Risotto with Shrimp in Lobster Sauce
The lobster sauce was too salty, but overall the dish was delicious, especially the pieces of octopus and the rice.

Baked Cinnamon Apple Crispy Bread bites with Vanila Ice-cream
Although the dessert arrived along with the food, it came at a good timing because I liked the way the dessert had time to cool down and the ice-cream melted, so the crispy bread bites were equally covered in ice-cream.
It would have been nice if the apples could taste more tart.
