  • black as chocolate

    Last Saturday, we went to this chocolate shop in Taiwan that sells Dark Chocolate cakes and ice cream. The decor is so beautiful and creative in this place. All the chocolates are imported from Belgium - yum, Belgium chocolate!!!

    Anyways, they let us taste their ice cream and they were yummy! I especailly love the dark chocolate plus cherry rum....FABULOUS! We eventually bought the classic chocolate cake + dark chocolate ice cream combination. All for NT$900 (almost USD$30). Yeah, kinda pricey for Taiwan.

    Ice cream was super hard and our spoons were tiny, so it took five of us an hour to eat a pint of ice cream. Yup, kinda ridiculous. But...it was delicious!

    As for the cake, it smelled like play-doh. Yup, that thing we used to play with when we were little. I must admit, it even tasted like the smell. After a while, I got used to the smell and enjoyed the rest of my cake. They must have put something in that cake because the next day, I still want more! Yeah, I want more of that play-doh smelling cake! Weird...what the hell did they put in that thing?

    Can't wait to go back for its Hazelnut Chocolate Cake - I heard it's the most popular cake there!
