Milky and Sunny, Mad Mark's and Speculoos PB

Tonight was once again Milky and Sunny night with Bee and Ate Star.

We couldn't decide whether we wanted to in M&S or elsewhere, so while waiting, Bee ordered M&S' Red Velvet Pancake with Ferrero Cream Cheese. Wahh! Yes, I love it when dessert comes first. :) :)


In the end, though, we decided to have dinner in M&S.

But after our pre-dinner dessert and our breakfast-for-dinner (hehe!), we wanted dessert again! :) Off to Mad Mark's!

I swear they have the best homemade ice cream! Their flavors are all exciting and original. We had Chocolate on Chocolate (left), Roasted Pecan (center) and Apple Cinnamon (right). All so good and creamy and sweet and all good things ice cream should be.


Afterwards, we walked back to M&S, and looky looky! On display -- Trader Joe's Speculoos Peanut Butter. Ok, so I haven't heard about Speculoos until today, but Ate Star said they're all the buzz in the world of spreads right now, and they are mighty good. :P


Limited stocks (Cookie Butter and Crunchy Cookie Butter) are available in M&S and are sold for P500.00 per bottle. If they run out, owner Bernard said you may leave your contact details so he can alert you when the new stocks arrive.

I can't wait to (free) taste this, courtesy of the ever-benevolent Bernard (wink wink)!

That's it for now.

See ya,

Europe Post: Berlin, Part 2

Heya guys!

It's been a month since my last post. It's mid-February already!

Work has been hectic, but I did get a few days off to do a bit of traveling -- thus my absence. Anyways, I'm back and I hope to regularly update the blog from now on, starting with this...

Part 2 of my Berlin Post.

Here are a few more highlights of Berlin.

Postdamer Platz:


In Potsdamer Platz, you can visit Panorama Punkt, for this view of Berlin:


Then, we walked to the nearby Sony Center (right picture above, with that cone-shaped roof with white panels), where they hold the Berlin Film Festival. Wowow!


Germans chillaxin', watching a movie (or was that a play?) :)


The next day: Ritter Store and a long walk to Check Point Charlie.

Ritter Sport. So much chocolate and all so good! I wanted to buy em all.


More art-y things, painted on the remains of the Berlin Wall, near Check Point Charlie.


Vintage, I love Berlin car. :)


Stop and Go, the Ampelmann way:


Finally, Check Point Charlie! :)


We got most of the must-see/ historical sites covered, but I did feel that there was still so much more to see in Berlin. It was soooo huge and we only got to explore the East Side. Anyways, what we saw, we enjoyed  and loved so much. (And when I come back, I would definitely eat more Bratwursts, and work harder to understand the U and S Bahns, promise!!!)

Seeya,
Binky
