The Daily Scoop

The Daily Scoop is now officially in my list of favourite ice-cream cafe/stores. I love their cones! They do not just have the usual waffle cones, but quite a great variety such as chocolate-coated cone, "Wonder Women" which is chocolate coated with rainbow sprinkled and chocolate coated with nuts, if I'm not wrong.

Strangely, when I walked into the cafe, the sweet-smelling aromas and all the colourful tubs of ice-cream right before my eyes made me smile happily to myself like a 7 year-old girl. Told you, I couldn't resist these sweet pretty little things.

We saw a little boy with the "Wonder Women" ice cream and my friend said he was holding on to the ice-cream so tightly as if the sky would fall down too if the ice-cream dropped. I wouldn't mind going back to the times when ice-cream was my everything, my world. Now, ice-cream could only chase away the blues for a moment.

But nevertheless, ICE CREAM IS LOVE.

P.S. Thanks to my best friend for introducing this place to me and giving me a treat!

Hatched

Two greatest regrets made at Hatched. 

First, it was the timing we went. Was it brunch time or lunch break? The place was so crowded but lucky us, we did manage to get the last empty seats available even though it was so close to the table next to us. Another thing I do not like about crowded eateries is because it makes me feel sheepish to take out my camera and snap pictures of the food. I know a professional food blogger should not mind the looks from others and would be snapping photos of all the food on the table before he starts eating. But I feel that people would be giving me all the weird stares, thinking why-on-earth-are-you-taking-photos-of-the-food-instead-of-eating-it-while-it-is-hot-and-whatsnot. Thus, due to my fear of being judge by people as a weirdo, below is the one and only presentable photo that I hurriedly took it with a handphone trying not to attract too much attention. 

Sir Benedict ($12 for one)

The second regret was ordering only one benedict instead of two. I would have easily gobble down the second one. Yes, because the combination of muffin, bacon and poached egg was just too satisfying. Now, that's what you called a scrumptious breakfast. The egg white was a little tasteless though. Now that I come to think of it, I have forgotten to add the pepper and salt. Aww.. that makes another regret. Ohwell. And I think that the mashed potatoes tasted a little weird. Well, perhaps KFC's mashed potatoes left too deep an impression in my tastebud that I have set the standard for mashed potatoes to be like KFC's in order for it to be called good.

Anyway, I should definitely make another trip down to Hatched, but at a better timing though.
