sugar rush

September 2, 2007

I love to eat and my favorites usually fall under the dessert category. It doesn't matter if I am eating at a fancy restaurant or a convenient jollyjeep, i'd always check what the available desserts are. Whenever i read a menu, i tend to overthink the dessert list (hmmm…) even if I know I won't be having any because of time/budget constraints, i would always bother to look at those yummy, mouth watering pictures inscripted with words like indulge, sinfully sweet and whipped whatnot.

Several Saturdays ago, my friends from faca and I checked out the serendra mall at the fort. It was really fun, we got to raid 4 storeys of Fully Booked (grabe book haven), dine at a hawaiian polynesian grill called Polukai (dito ko lang nagustuhan ang spare ribs at hindi pa ganun kamahal) and strolled the vicinity like first timers would (pangdate ang ambiance pero kahit walang dictionary date ok pa rin naman *wink* ). However, i have to say, and i think my friends would agree that the highlight of the night was when we feast over a box of cupcakes.

I don't think i can ever describe how these heavenly goods taste in words, so I might as well let pictures do the telling ;)
