Krim Soda from Sibu, Sarawak.

Figure 1.0

Krim Soda is a sweet carbonated drink. The packaging and processing of the drink itself might be different from one country with another; however, they share the common taste of vanilla.

Krim Soda is also a soft drink that specially made in Sibu. Sometimes, you might find them filled in a Carlsberg or Tiger recycle bottle with their sticker label on the bottle. That is the reason why they could afford to sell the soft drink in a much lower price than the famous Coca‐Cola or F&N soft drinks.

Some people even said that the Krim Soda drinks was originally made by the local of Bintagor. Anyway, this drink you can only able to find in Sarawak.

Starbucks Banana Mango Frappuccino!

Figure 1.0

It’s shopping time on weekend! After tiring walk and shopping at ION Orchard, we decided to have a rest and quench our thirst at Starbucks. Since recently they keep advertise and promoting their two new beverages Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino and Banana Mango Frappuccino blended beverage.

Also getting to know that actually the new beverages is only available for a limited time period, so never miss the chance to give it a try. I tried the blended Banana Mango Frappuccino, as I was craving for something sweet and fruity.

I like the taste of the drink as I like sour taste so much. The mixture of mango passion fruit juice blended with freshly peeled banana makes the drink taste sweet and a little sour. Furthermore, I also heard that it's Banana Mango Frappuccino is available based on the availability of their daily supply of fresh bananas. So the drink should be as fresh and healthy as you could imagine?

Summer comes and summer goes, I will try the Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino before the summer is over! I guess it should taste something sweet, creamy and crunchy?

Self Decoration Ice-Cream!

Figure 1.0

Had a great lunch buffet at Seoul Garden and of course after taking those heavy food, never forget to get an ice‐cream as a desert. I'm not a great ice‐cream decorator and it came out with a simple 3 scoops of ice‐cream with some mixture toppings. Actually I was rushing to go off from the lunch, so end up not spending too much time on the decoration of the ice‐cream. Anyway, it's just a happy snap shot to share with. Desert always makes a person happy.

Due to the hurry of time after having the grill and some steamboat food, I don't get the chance to make their ice kacang, where they provide various different topping ingredients. Shall make one DIY ice kacang for the next visit. Stay tune!

I had a story of ice cream about my friend. My friend went for a dating together with her husband and her husband suggested her to go out for an ice cream after having their movie. Her husband brought her to a very special desert shop selling varieties of ice cream, with the only intention of making his wife happy, as desert often makes a person happy. Then when come to make an order, after the wife chooses her favorite one and the husband did not order any of it and saying that he is not having any of it because he is still feeling full. They started in argument when the wife responded with a higher tone to her husband, "What?! You are not having any? And yet you brought me here? Are you trying to fatten me up so that I'm less appealing to other men?". The husband just keep quiet while the wife showing him a black face.

The husband's good intention has been totally misunderstood. Is ice cream that fattening? Yea, the sugar on the ice cream is fattening but with a little consumption of it once in a while wouldn't bring so much effect of fats. Although such situation happens once in a blue moon among relationship, but not to blame any of the ice cream desert as it is the great source of social and make people connects happily.

Sometime when you going on a family jaunt for ice cream on weekend could just be a great day!

Wonderful Treat On 35th Swensational Years!

Figure 1.0

I received this Swensen voucher after paying my bills for one of my dine in meal at the restaurant. At first I thought I receive the voucher as a gift of spending over $200 at the restaurant. Until I saw the advertisement online and I just realized that actually we can just redeem the voucher by flashing a mobile phone snapshot of the voucher during a payment which is spend at least $70 at any of their restaurants islandwide.

This $35 dollar off promotional is only valid until end of March 2014, as Swensen is celebrating their 35 Years Anniversary. The promotion itself is only valid on weekdays and not available on weekends or Valentine’s day.

The first thought that came to our mind when chatting about this voucher is, will there be another $36 dollar discount for the next year when Swensen celebrate their 36^th year anniversary? 

I like their Apple Crumble, served on a sizzling hot pan and drenched in delicious sauce. The combination of cold and hot mixture gave you a fantastic feeling of enjoying desert. Although I was doubt of ordering the Apple Crumble at first as I heard from some of my peer's opinion that it taste awful. But ended up I insist on ordering it to give it a try, and it was surprisingly taste to be good and doesn't taste as awful as what others claimed to be. Like the wise man said, "never try, never know, and you will never know how an apple taste like from just a description itself until you taste it yourself". I like the soft and a little crunchy apple chunks dipping with hot caramelized sauce. It tastes delicious with the combination of hot, cold, sweet, crunchy apple, and soft custard.

Generally it is still worth it especially with the $35 dollar voucher and also we received a free Firehouse Birthday Sundae treat. Whenever I visit Swensen, I will never miss to have their ice cream desert. Some even named it as the International Ice Cream Parlor.

Indeed we had our great time chilling with the cooling ice-cream desert after a stressful and tiring week from work. That’s the reason why I love desert so much as it would be absolutely perfect to make a day.

I had always found it a good place to gather around with friends for a birthday celebration because it is famous with its ice-cream cake and also with a wide array of ice-cream concoctions. 

It’s definitely a fantastic ice-cream parlor that one must experience.
