I DRESS-UP AND EAT

Shopping is always a fun form of recreation yet an exhausting activity too.  So after some turns and stops in the several shops at The Outlet Shoppes in Atlanta, meal time was next!   Always search for the establishment's Directory to get a glimpse of the different shops and that includes also the listing of the food stalls. The Outlet Shoppes in Atlanta is located at  915 Ridgewalk Pkwy, Woodstock, GA 30188.  Opens from 10AM - 9PM from Monday - Saturday and 11AM - 7PM on Sunday. It was few minutes past lunchtime, so we headed immediately to the food court to have more options to choose from.  And guess what? An Asian will always be attracted to Asian foods!  I opted for LITTLE TOKYO. After that satisfying Asian lunch, we went for something sweet and cold at GHIRARDELLI.  When I travelled to San Francisco, California few days prior to this shopping day, I had the opportunity to explore Ghirardelli Square a bit, see HE...

After having lunch at Boudin , we headed over to Embarcadero  to check out a portion of one of the touristy spots of the San Francisco - the long stretch of Piers from 1, 1 1/2  - 45 and the Ferry Building is situated there too. The  San Francisco Ferry Building  is a  terminal  for  ferries  that travel across the  San Francisco Bay , a  food hall [3]  and an office building. It is located on  The Embarcadero  in  San Francisco ,  California . - via wikipedia From among the number of food stalls inside the Ferry Building, me and my officemate, Sheynne, opted to taste the soft serve ice cream of Gott's Roadside. Gott's Roadside take-out counter for their delicious soft serve ice cream inside on the north side, across the hall from Out The Door. See map HERE . You can have your ice cream either in cups or in cones. Array of toppings to choose from. My rating for the ...

Warm brownies and ice cream on cup and topped with sprinkles of sweets, who wouldn't like that? They also have a green tea (matcha) flavored brownie.  The green tea flavor is in trend now in the food industry, thanks to the Japanese. My choice is a no-brainer.  I am a lover of chocolate, even though my mom totally dislikes my preference. The price was more affordable that its taste (in my opinion).  I was surprised that it did taste better than my expectation. My rating for A La Mode's brownie in a cup is 8 of 10. This particular kiosk of A LA MODE is located at Park Mall, A1 Ouano Avenue, Mandaue City, 6014 Cebu Photos taken using Samsung Duos phone. Eat good food, everyday!

Chocolates, who doesn't love and crave for these sweet treats?   A visit to a chocolate boutique cafe is the paramount remedy to satisfy my sweet tooth. MAITRE CHOCOLATIER is the first chocolate boutique cafe in the Philippines with only 3 branches nationwide with one branch for each major island group of the county; one in Metro Manila for Luzon, one in Cebu City for Visayas and one in Davao City for Mindanao . MAITRE CHOCOLATIER   Boutique Cafe  " only the best chocolate haven for all chocoholics! "   Found an interesting page on their menu that talked about the major source of chocolate, its history, geographical abundance and the number of benefits for the body. This was my order:  GOLDEN EUPHORIA and ICE BLENDED KAHLUA CHOCOLATE DRINK  I can't get enough of this chocolate cake because it looks too photogenic.  I captured it at different angles, on top is the side view, below is the back view and furthe...
