Apokat milkshake (avocado milkshake) @ Padang Indonesia Restaurant

Thankfully there was no need to travel to Indonesia to try Apokat milkshake, a beverage made of Avocado, some are made with syrup and some are made with chocolate sauce.

The Apokat milkshake here was nice and creamy, there was no avocado taste, but after swallowing the full impact of avocado arrives.

The drink itself was smooth and thick, and there was chocolate syrup decorated on the side of the cup.

As well as the drink, I tried the Pandan Katam Hitam, it is a two coloured cake made from glutinous rice.
This cake was really nice, it was chewy, and a slightly sticky texture from using glutinous rice rather than normal flour.
The texture was very similar to a sweet malt loaf, but not so dense and chewy.

Mangkok Pandan tape ketam was slightly dense, but the texture was like a cake. The top was covered with pandan paste and had a piece of young coconut in the middle.
The taste was similar to Pandan Katam Hitam, but slightly stronger and sweeter.

 

 

 

 

Barbie milkshake @ 生活創庫.隨食 Life Passion

The flyer for strawberry milkshake was very attractive, simple and shows what the milkshake contains.

Strawberries + Strawberries + Milk!

So this was the reason I got it. Fortress Hill has become fascinating, more and more joints are have opened here.

Anyway, I ordered the strawberry milkshake, and then saw another one with marshmallows, so I changed my order to that.

Taste wise, the strawberry wasnt that strong, infact a little fake, but I did see them put frozen strawberries in the blender, perhaps there wasnt that much strawberries as the flyer illustrated, and some strawberry syrup flavouring was added.

When I got the drink, I was given a matching pink straw, almost the same colour as the milkshake, how princess/barbie like!

Usually marshmallows are for toasting at bbqs, hot chocolates, and now as a topping for froyo, but for cold drinks this is a first.

The size of the marshmallows were rather big, you can see from the picture that they are bigger than the straws diameter.

Marshmallows bigger than straw

 

There was some black dot on the marshmallow which I didnt know what it was, or I would have had a perfect white/pink picture.

Anyway, while I drank the milkshake, the marshmallows floated on top and increased in size, making it impossible to go through the straw, whilst it was impossible at the start anyway!!

Apart from the milkshakes, the other snacks seems interesting, which I should try someday, honey sandwich (spelt SandWISH) on their menu, and curry potato sandwich.
Although their meaning of SandWISH seems to be "piggy bun" in Chinese (round crusty bun)

Good points:
Cute

Bad points:
They should have smaller marshmallows that can fit through the straws, the drink was too sweet and lacked taste of real strawberries.

 

 

 

Sweet potato milkshake @ Spaghetti house

Ordered the sweet potato milkshake which is slightly different to the product picture.

However I do not have the product picture.

The product picture was basically purple milkshake with jelly in the drink.

When it came, it had wheatgerm on the top, and the milkshake was watery like rather than thick.

The taste was rather milky too.

 

Ms Penguin creamy dreamy icecreams, milkshakes and froyo

This dessert/milkshake place has been opened for a long time, but no one has listed it on Openrice until now thanks to IvyCWK.
I have tried to add it on the OpenRice database so many times but it never got through because there was no telephone number for this place but its a food court so there was no telephone number.
Hopefully this place is still open now! (six months later since I last went).

 

It reminded me of Dairy Queen because of the Penguin and the arctic vibes it gave me.

Basically this place offers milkshakes or dessert which is a choice of ice-cream, green tea ice-cream or yoghurt.

I was hoping to try a sample of their yoghurt but they said they could not give out samples.

Anyway I ordered the milkshake and I had a feeling I was going to like it anyway. The milkshake is blended with a choice ice cream, green tea ice cream or yoghurt, hence that was why I wanted to try their yoghurt.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The milkshake was blended with whipping cream as shown on the photo, but since it tasted so good it is definately worth the calories for that creaminess and the cream topping if it is available!

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I was very attracted by their ice-cream based milkshakes and the ingredients you can choose to blend with it because they had stuff like Kit Kats, Snickers, Twixs’, and even Cadbury’s Flake (A rarity in HK)!!
In the end I chose the ice-cream to be blended with TWIX and next time I will try it with peanut butter.

For the toppings, it was really cool, they had Kellogg’s crispies, but I chose Cadbury’s flake, it was sold out so I chose cream and that was sold out too, so I just went without.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Apart from personalised choices, you can also choose the set flavours which are cool as well, which leads my curiousity on whether is a local joint or a western joint because each drink is characterised such as Rowdy penguin, xcitement penguin, gym penguin, surprise penguin, Ms penguin signature and more.

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

 

 

For the choice of chocolates there are: Twix, Crunch, Kit Kat, Mars Bar, Toberolone, M&M’s, and more.

Froyo with strawberries and maltesers

 

Froyo
The froyo was really nice, it had a natrual yoghurt taste and the fruit was actually blended in with it.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

ice-cream
As for the ice-cream, I really liked that as well, I am not a fan of soft serve, but this one was similar to Turkish ice-cream which has an elastic texture.
The temperature of all their items were not freezing cold.
Again it was really creamy and had a strong vanilla taste.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

Milkshake
The milkshake was contained in a cup that was from the Juicy Bear, so I did not post that picture because it might confuse people.
The taste of it was amazing, it was extremely creamy and milky like Hokkaido milk. The sweetness was just right even though it was blended with TWIX.
I believe there was milk added to it because it was not thick at all, and the temperature was not ice-cold like ice-cream, but cold enough.
The twix tasted really nice blended in, because it tasted like dipping biscuits in milk.
