The colourful world of Fauchon down the basement

I was glad when this shop opened but they mostly sold macarons which was slightly disappointing because in other countries they have a cafe too serving beautiful eclairs.
Although I was bored of Macarons I still tried it anyway because there are macaron stores everywhere these days and it is not a delicacy anymore especially when they have macaron classes and everyone can make their own.

Pistachio macaron:
In the end I chose Pistachio. I was pleased the staff actually knew which ones were the sweetest and which one was the least sweetest.
I was tempted to try the lemon but it was risky because i do not like artificial lemon flavours.

The pistachio was delicious and fragrant too!
It literally melts in your melt into liquid!
The sweetness was just right.

Curry beef puff @ Honolulu Coffee Shop

Initially I wanted to get the egg tarts but they looked pale and oily.
Then I opted for the curry beef puff.
The entrance of this restaurant looks like a circus.

Curry beef puff:
The puff pastry was too thick and oily.
The beef was slightly spicy and the curry taste was just right, however the beef was chewy.

Crispy fishes with rice @ Quezon Pinoy Food Expres

Came here again for their food, the portions are quite small but it tastes like home cooked food so it was quite healthy.
Today picked the fried fishes.
There was also other fried fishes which I will try next time.

Deep fried fishes:
The fried fishes were hard and bitter.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Green beans:
The beans were fresh and non oily.
They were slightly too hard and perhaps a tinge too salty.
