The Icing Moment
Hi. It's been a while since I last updated my blog, two years I guess?
Life was great until last month. Something has happened to me. It's not important anymore just trying to get over the feelings. So here, I'm going to write a post of food that cheered me up. Some people believe eating can improve your mood and for me, it does.
After France trip, I am kinda addicted to ice-creams. It was my school trip, we went to France and did some school activities then we had a few days for free and easy. It was Spring, late May. The weather was chilly and windy. Believes me although it was just Spring not Winter, the winds have the power to make you shiver even you're wearing a wind cheater. Even it was so cold, I still couldn't resist myself for getting the ice-creams as they looked so tempting. You know sometimes you just have the urge to eat cold foods during cold weather.
I had two ice-creams in Paris. The first one was an incident as we walk by the street, my friend spotted a handsome ice-cream seller. "Hey look! Over there." I turned my head and looked to the direction that she pointed. I was like "ICE CREAMMMM!". So she went to see that guy but I wanted ice cream. Out of my expectation, IT WAS SO FREAKING NICE. I had vanilla ice-cream and passion-fruit sorbet. The vanilla ice-cream was full of vanilla seeds unlike those in my home country; so artificial.
(If you're from Europe countries, I apologise because I'm from Asia, Asian don't make real things you know. *Just joking. No offence to Asian, cause I'm one of youu.) [Continue with the ice-cream]
As it melts in my mouth, I could feel the vanilla flavour that spread out from the seeds. They were so tiny but flavourful. Then the passion-fruit sorbet, after a mild-sweet, polite and smooth flavour of vanilla, it immediately toned out the sourness of itself like afraid you'll never notice it exists. So the paaaasion-fruuuit vaaanilla!
I guess not only my friend got attracted by him, my camera too.
*Just finding an excuse for out-of-focus*
Cafe Fouguet's
€7 for two scoops
Nearby 'Arc de Triomphe'
My friends and I went for the cruise tour; while waiting for the next ride. I went for ice-cream againnn! Just couldn't get over it after the first corn. It's sad that I did not record down the shop name but it located at the street of Port de la Bourdonnais. It's nearby the station for riding Bateaux Parisian (Cruise tour); facing to the river. There's a hot-dog store right beside this ice-cream store. Do not get confused as there have three ice-cream stores included this one. Please do not buy the one that nearest to the ride point, because my friend tried and it tasted like....uhm artificial, very.
So this time I was being a little greedy, I had three scoops as it was the last day in France and I knew I will be missing the ice-cream soooooooooo much.
The purple was one type of flowers but I couldn't recall the name of the flavour. At first I thought it was yam so I ordered it. But then it wasn't. It was quite surprising when you actually expected to taste yam then you tasted another flavour. Couldn't tell what flower it is but it tasted very mild, relaxing and the icing feeling..umm. Then the lime sorbet and vanillaaaaaa again. Oh yeah, I personally like sour very much so I ordered lime. Heh. Lime sorbet tasted just limeeee. So sour until you shake it shake it. Lastly, the vanilla! Different outlets but same flavour. I guess the vanilla pods in France are all born by the same mama. IT WAS SO NAISEEEEE. Omg I miss it already..
Awesome sunlight - best filter. So, now I know what type of man my camera likes.
*no racist at all please do not be offended*
Err.
So yeah. After coming back from France and experiencing the change of temperature (Malaysia is so hot). It makes me crave more ice-cream. It really helps to chill, biting a mouthful ice-cream and get a few sec of brain freeeeze. (: helps me to calm down.
