Ice cream the asian twist

Desserts and ice cream has gone a long way! I don't recall having ice cream in flavours such as taro, durian or black sesame but ever since the asian market has grown there is nothing I can't find here in Sydney!

Besides the dessert shop called passionflower that sells numerous ice cream and dessert, this shop in chinatown sells a variety of ice cream with asian flavours too such as taro, durian, green tea and black sesame. This shops is next to Helen cakeshop and sells chilli fishballs and other yummy desserts too!

Black sesame and chocolate ice cream with wafers:


It's not very cheap here with a scoop costing $5 and 2 scoops $7.50 it's probably more worth it if you came with a few friends n share! Next time i'll want to try their mango pudding!

It's definately a place to come to if you don't mind abit of noise because in Chinatown it can be pretty rowdy! If you want a more intimate or quieter cafe then I don't recommend this place but if ur craving for mango pudding, chilli fishballs, milktea then why not takeaway!

A taste of Vietnam

It's been a LONG time since I wrote and it's because
1) I had no internet connection for about a month
2) I lost my camera stick that uploads pictures but praise God while at church somehow i was prompted to look at a specific place in my bag and I found it!! (That specific place is by putting my fingers through a small hole that is in a pocket where small little gadgets falls through and gets lost forever!)

Anyways, last weekend I finally visited this place called Cabramatta which is basically dominated by vietnamese food, hot breads, bread shops and desserts! There were lots of fruits and vege stalls around and little stalls that sells towels, necessities that reminded me of the stalls by the HDB flats in singapore selling all kinds of stuff!

While I was there I promised myself that I had to get apple custard fruits which I tasted a few weeks prior at someone's place and told myself I had to get them! They are so delicious and sweet which is probably the reason I liked it so much! It's not that cheap though...the bigger ones were like 6.99 per KG and the small ones were 3.99 per kg and not much flesh inside to eat. I've never tasted these fruits that looked somewhat like a smaller jackfruit and also durian but without the spikes! Inside is like fejiaos!

Here were the apple custards I bought:


There were also fresh sugar cane juice all over the place and I couldn't resist not having one and as usual I couldn't help but bought pandan cake, durian roll, chocolate marble cake slice to bring back home and finished it within 2 days for supper =) I have to have to stop buying from the bakeries!!!

I will definately go back again for the hype but i also just found out that it's one of the more dangerous places in sydney or perhaps CLOSE to the dangerous suburbs!
If you want to get an experience and have rather cheaper food and want to have a taste of Vietnam then this place is a must!
