[myBook] – A Sunday at ChinaTown

January 20th, 2009 00:01

Last Sunday I ate with my aunt at a rather famous dessert store in the center of China Town. Behold, the biggest mango ice-cream I have so far ate with a generous amount of mangos. Although that day the waitress told us that the mango is a little sour…it turned out to be more than just ‘a little’. After we finished, we heard that they decided to stop selling the mango dessert probably due to the fact that many people complained…complained…and complained…like they always do anyways.

A place where one could take a picture (well its not the best quality since its from my phone, only 5MP) without being stepped on and pushed from all directions as China Town was really crowded lol.

(Image has been re-sized to fit page)

 

Happy Early Chinese New Year if I don’t write anything for the next few days as I will be quite busy lol. Time to sleep –>
