Chocolate's Day

CHOCOLATE'S DAY

One week has passed since final exam is over. Most of the students of Clayton campus are now enjoying themselves under the hot sun with Malaysia's food and HOME SWEET HOME~ I admit I was a little home sick previously with all the uncertainties in my mind.

Well~ For now, we are enjoying ourselves here as well. =) Don't try to tempt us with Malaysia foods, it won't work.. =P

For the past one week, I have been indulging in foods. >.<

We went to Lygon Street for Nasi Lemak House. The mamak mee goreng and nasi lemak kelantan are good. Just a slight of regret in trusting Jason's level of spiciness, we should have go for most spicy as we found medium not spicy at all.

Thanks to YC for delivered us Hokkien mee and pineapple fried rice and he baked cupcakes. =) Sorry for those who missed it. =P



Next, we went to Richmond for breakfast~ which is highly recommended by Jason.

I didn't try to coffee as I was told it was just so so~ and according to the one who tried it, is a no no. I ordered the pumpkin tofu pie and the special poached egg breakfast. The breakfast is just normal, but the pumpkin tofu pie was a surprise. It is topped with a soury sweet with cinnamon taste topping, and warm pumpkin blend with chunky bites of almonds served in the pie. It is quite a personal choice, as people who don't like cinnamon might not like it. I would think is fine when u mix the topping and pumpkin blend together. At least, I kind of love it. =)


We also found a great cafe for breakfast in the city, this cafe is so hidden that we wouldn't have notice it if it was not recommended by a friend. We were initially shocked by the look and the surrounding of the cafe, and yet we went in. We knew we are in the right place when we smell the coffee the moment we stepped in the cafe.


The cappuccino, latte and mocha are good. I personally feel is better than building 75 coffee.. Actually I feel building 75 coffee is the best in campus, but if out of campus, I will think the cafe beside Carnegie train station, De graves coffee and this newly found cafe are better. Personally I like this one just nice for me as I find De graves coffee too thick, Carnegie too sweet for me ( I'll request less sugar next time). The foods here are good too and the price is reasonable.

Something like quinche with spinach and cheese.

Slow cooked lamb with Penne.

Something similar to Foccacia, but this sesame bun taste real good!

One thing I like about this cafe, the foods are not really very salty, a very nice place to hang out as well. Next we headed to San Churro where we were blessed with luck. =)

We took our own sweet time in front of the counter thinking which cakes should we try...
and the guy working in SC was so kind to recommend us this:

The Fried Truffles~

We are so honoured to be the first customer to try it as it is not on the menu yet. He even showed me his kitchen manual as I requested to have a closer look at the photo. I should have memorize the recipe. =P This is so heavenly good! The crunchy yet not hard bite at the outer surface, chocolate melting inside, with a soft texture with bit of saltiness in the middle are perfect combination. Since it is fried food, we thought it will be hot, but it is not. I am drooling as I am describing it. This is definitely a surprise of the day and I highly recommend everyone to give it a try when is available. Please don't b surprise you are not serve with the chocolate dip when you order as it is not suppose to be there.


The significant dish of San Churro, the churro dip. It can be served with cinnamon or icing sugar topping. As one of us hate cinnamon, we ordered the icing sugar topping.

The Bailey Chocolate Cheese cake, this combination reminds me of Tiramisu. This cake is very cheesy, the biscuit crumb is really thick. It is best to share it with such thick cheesy taste cake. It is one of the best of the day as well. =) The cake can be served with chocolate dip as well, however I would think it will spoil the cake if it is add with chocolate dip.

Next stop, from the hairy San Churro to the bald Max Brenner. =P
We were told by Hui that the icon of Max Brenner is actually drawn with just one line.
At this point, I was actually very fulled of chocolate.

The Banana split sundae with waffle.

I was so full of chocolate that I feel sick just by the thought of drinking chocolate. These were ordered by Hui and YC. Arabian night and Pineapple marshmallow thingy.. It is seriously a weird combination of pineapple and chocolate. I would think it is another personal taste thing, some might like it.

With so many chocolates in a day...... we shall declare today as CHOCOLATE DAY~
and we celebrated with sparkling candle ; )
