CREPELATO: PART I

What could be more refreshing than combining Crepe and Gelato? A perfect mouthwatering dessert!
Non-fattening concoction. Crepe plus Gelato with cereals and other toppings drizzled with fruit syrup and whipping cream. This one plate costs P100.00

Gorging this unique Italian-style concoction is such a fantastic way to combat stress!So last night I had a great Crepelato moment with Kathy at NCCC mall branch. After our dinner---Mongolian Barbeque + Rice and Longanisa + Rice (also at Crepelato)---we moved to a couch and relaxed with one plate and another plate of Crepelato!

I originally wanted Almond Banana Split topping but it was not available so I picked the mango float mixture and it tastes wonderful, I mean the ice cream is so different from the ordinary ice cream I tasted. Gelato is such a natural cooler, not sugary nor too creamy, and it is not easily melt even if you take it leisurely while busy talking to friends.

Such a yummy dessert!The crepe float I and Kathy ordered

I chose only one scoop with crepe. One order is enough already because it is bulky plus it has delectable toppings of cereals and other sweets drizzled with fruit syrup!Crepelato also offers unlimited scoops for P199.00. They are serving gelato in Belgian waffle cones or cups, crepe float and pastries.

Crepelato is very different from other chilling dessert I tasted ever, it has a very unique and oh so delicious mixture..plus the crepe is so fantastic. I think this is one of my frustrations---cooking a perfect crepe in life haha!---I tried preparing a crepe one Christmas (2004) because I was so excited to present a Peach Crepe dessert to my family, but to my chagrin, the crepe I dedicatedly cooked turned like a complete pudding that my two cousins and one Aunt laughed hardly during our Noche Buena meal and asked me what the hell I was cooking! The crepe messed up with the syrupy Peach I stuffed inside, haha!^____^


But I am not losing hope that one day I could be able to cook a perfect crepe!So maybe I have to visit Crepelato one more time and take note with the crepes..hehe!

Hmmm and that "one more time" will happen later this afternoon (sooo fast!hehe) as I will going back to Crepelato with three friends, this time, we agreed to go to Mayon outlet because the place is nicer, quieter and more relaxing. Additional Crepelato photos tomorrow!

My First Travel Abroad!

Image
Got a taste of real life adventure outside the country! :-D Back in my high school years, I often wondered what's on the other side of the continent, how people lived, what the environment looks like, the culture, the food, the lifestyle and the feeling of being in a completely different place. So I dreamed of going to another land, not necessarily to work, but to satisfy my curiosity and explore new learnings and experiences. Then one day, a good friend, Maribeth Galindo, coordinator of the social science division at UIC, told me to join their group for a leisure trip to Hongkong and Macau after summer break and because my passport will about to expire early next year with no single stamp yet from the immigration, I wasted no time and agreed. For the next three months, I became preoccupied with our itinerary plan, listing down everything I could think for this trip, I also did some research on different tourist spots around Hongkong and Macau and what public transp...

San Pedro Cathedral, stepping on Theological history

Image
San Pedro Cathedral, one of the largest Catholic Churches in Asia, made another history with its newly refurbish altar and tabernacle. The grand renovation, which partly done in Baroque architecture, has a stunning contrast of Gothic and Renaissance designs ushering both Theological and modern influences. This is quite interesting since only few Catholic churches in the Philippines so far use Baroque architecture. The structure is furnished in Auburn color accentuated with panel of Gold shade with emblems of Eucharistic mystery. The tabernacle has a luminous ray of Sapphire and Cobalt blue combinations.       The Cathedral's roof structure is designed like a boat symbolizing St. Peter's humble beginning. According to the Holy Bible, when he was handpicked by Jesus Christ to be His disciple, he was still Simeon, the Fisherman, Jesus then renamed him Peter and was later on selected as the "rock" whom Christ built His church. St. Peter became the first Pope, thus, all P...

Great Schemers

Image
Kate Middleton and her mother, Carole Middleton, can be compared to Sir Thomas Boleyn and his daughter Anne Boleyn. Both great schemers. But unlike the Middletons, the Boleyns were aristocrats. THE BOLEYNS During medieval period, being linked to a King or a future King is like acquiring a large Estate, it would also enhance their standing in the society, so parents pushed their daughters so hard to be near to the royals. Sir Thomas Boleyn was exactly one of them. When his two daughters, Mary and Anne, were growing up, he made it clear they would be hovering around royalty. He sent both his daughters to the French court to be trained as Ladies-in-waiting.  When Anne returned home, she became an accomplished and well-educated woman ready to become a mistress of a King. Her father and uncle, Thomas Howard, the 2nd Duke of Norfolk, moved forward to place her in the English royal court, they introduced the young Anne to the notorious King, Henry VIII. Anne first served as...
