today, i craved.

Thank You to Hasloo for the logo. :)

i have been wanting to eat carrot cake for quite some time now. ever since i saw Camille eat it at the tambayan, i've been looking for a place to buy some.

today was my lucky day. i was able to convince some friends, Icy and Patag, to eat at Chocolate Kiss Cafe for me to have my slice of carrot cake.

ChocKiss, as it is fondly called, is found at The Bahay ng Alumni. it has a nice ambiance when it is not full. the downside is that the room is a bit cold if the number of customers is small.

anyway, it is always a nice experience when dining in ChocKiss. the service is good but the food is a bit pricey for a restaurant situated inside a school campus. however, what you pay for is definitely worth it.

for lunch, i had Salisbury Steak. it might be one of the best i've tasted. it was a big serving - something restaurant food lacks these days. also, it was so tender. i was not really sure about the garnish. at first, i thought it was deep-fried garlic but it did not taste like that. anyway, the added mystery made it more delicious. the button mushrooms were gigantic! :))

for dessert, i had my carrot cake. what i enjoyed most about it is that the cream cheese, which is a small part of the cake, carried majority of the sugar content. the cake itself was so chewy and had real carrot grinds. i felt like i'm in heaven.

i had lunch for almost 3 hours, 1-4pm, because we were also there to talk about school work. i was so full that i need not eat before volleyball training at 6. in fact, i was still full by the time i arrived home.

next time, i might order Beef Stroganoff. the best i've tasted so far is from Wok This Way which coincidentally offers the best sisig with egg. :)

and, this is why everybody wonders why i don't get fat.
