Mutant blueberries at Pausa

PAUSA means Pause in Italian so that was exactly what I did. I paused here for dessert!!!!!





Previously, this used to be Beautifood but sadly it packed up.
Anyway, it is now an Italian joint selling pizzas, foccacias and pastas as well Italian gelato.


Tried the gelato cup and the blueberries stole the show because they were huge!





I wonder if there were bigger ones in the kitchen!!




The dessert cup was really good, I got a mix of strawberry gelato and vanilla.
I liked the vanilla the most because it was smooth and creamy.
They change the flavours now and then so I look forward to trying other flavours.

Scammed by the cherries at Choux Creme (Tai Koo)

Eating in Tai Koo seems to be a scam!

Got the Halloween black forest puff which shows three cherries on the product shot.

The one in the cabinet had three cherries, but the one I was given (hidden on the left) only had TWO!

Apart from that, the taste was good, light and not too sweet for a chocolate puff and the cherry was divine because it was a tart one.




Maria's Bakery Earl Grey Tea custard egg tart

I don’t really eat Chinese egg tarts but tried this one because of the earl grey filling.








There was not much filling but when I got to the Earl Grey bit, the egg tart was much more palatable but the Earl Grey could have been stronger because the butter crust was too buttery and overpowered the Earl Grey.


I would have liked it if the egg custard and Earl grey were mixed together so that the Earl grey taste would be more balanced.

As well as eggtarts, they also have Earl Grey eggettes.

Oven roasted chicken at Goobne Chicken

Fried chicken is popular because of the Korean trend but it can be unhealthy.
At Goobne, they serve roasted chilled chicken (冰鮮雞).

Tried the chicken with curry powder and the Sichuan chicken, which is covered in sauce.

Anyway, despite all the strong seasonings and spices, it had an odd taste that could not be overpowered by the spices.

The Sichuan chicken fared better because it was in a tasty fiery sweet sauce but unfortunately they also put the signature Korean chili powder in it which made it really spicy.

More new dishes at Saizeriya

It wasn’t long since I last went to Saizeyria and they have new items again.


This time tried the Doria and the spaghetti with clams in genevose sauce.



I must have been the first to order the new genevose sauce spaghetti because when it came, it was cooked in tomato sauce so I told them it was not the right one and they changed it for me.


The Doria was too creamy for my liking and the pasta was good as expected with a strong herb tastes in the pasta.
