Cafe Seolhwa 🍧 | October 20, 2015 This post is quite image heavy. Just because! Look at this majesty! If you ask how much Cafe Seolhwa has set the bar for iced desserts for me, I would say pretty damn high. The decadence of the chocolate and cheesecake, the freshness of the fruits, and the delicate taste of the shaved iced milk never left my mind to this day. It was my first time there, last month. In the midst of all the food we've had, we made it to this unassuming little spot in Fort Bonifacio. It is not very popular but to those who have tried it, it must have become a staple dessert for most because the place is packed even on weekdays and there is no surprise why. Everything about this bingsu is perfect. Bingsu is a popular Korean dessert with ice shavings as base, topped with condensed milk and various sweet ingredients. At Cafe Seolhwa, from the fruit flavored bingsu to yogurt to chocolate and even green tea (matcha) ones are all amazing and huge! Ranging from 190 to 360 pesos with solo and share sizes. The ones in the pics are for share but we kind of got carried away. (Who wouldn't be?) There is a special thing about their bingsu. The ice shavings isn't ice but frozen milk! The ice on their Brownie Bingsu is frozen chocolate milk shavings. Omfg. I'm depressed now. I have to go back soon. 😭😭😭 The store also offers cakes, pastries, pancakes, rice cakes, sandwiches, and coffee drinks (hot, iced, frappes). One thing though, I ordered their Red Velvet cake and it was very dry and quite pricey so I do not recommend that one. 🍨🍨🍨 Cafe Seolhwa has branches at: The Forum, Bonifacio Global City Commerce Center BF Homes Century City Mall

Klondike Krunch | October 15, 2015 I was pacing the ice cream section of Rustan's the other day and I just had to get this instead of the the Twix or Snickers ice cream bars. I never had one and it's the first time I saw this. Maybe I wasn't looking too hard! I know Klondike ice cream has a cult-like status in the states. I had comic books when I was little with ads of Klondike in the pages. So what can I say? It is too sweet. The vanilla ice cream itself is too damn sweet for me, the kind that would give you a pinching migraine afterwards. It wasn't as creamy as a Magnum. It tastes a bit rough and icy. The chocolate coating is twice as sweet as a Crunch bar. But weird enough, I finished a bar without struggle. It probably has drugs in it. Who knows? Rustan's sells Klondike Krunch in packs of 6 for 296 pesos. The original Klondike Bar sells for 290. If you're a sweet tooth, I don't think you need to look for anything else than this!
