Godiva Icecream Parlor Truffles
巧克力是我的comfort food,每逢趕功課或者考試期間就「緊有古古力在手袋」,另外我在辦公室亦長備godiva chocolate pearls。今次陪我的是icecream parlor truffles冰淇淋味松露巧克力。
我買的是四件裝的gift box,由綠色那顆開始,順時針方向的分別是Pistachio Truffle、Neapolitan Truffle、Lemon Sorbet和Pecan Caramel。Pecan Caramel那顆送了給同學,味道如何就不知道了。另外三顆之中,我最喜歡的是Lemon Sorbet,味道清新,十分適合在夏天食用。

Cut-out cops
When I watched the TV news last night and saw this, I LAUGHED!
Here's the lively report from RTHK:
Cut-out cops to combat speeding
The police are not often in the business of fooling people. But this time they will be doing just that - by placing two life-sized cut-out police officers on major highways in a bid to persuade motorists to lower their speed. The force are hoping that the new approach can reduce the number of traffic accidents.
You know what, each of this costs a few thousand hongkies and the Police Force will review this new approach in a few months time.
I was wondering if we will have cut-out teachers in classrooms soon so students would be more well-behaved? Well I do doubt if this is going to work at all.

Patisserie, Hyatt Regency Hong Kong, Shatin

I visited Patisserie of Hyatt Regency and it was quite good!
It's located at the lobby level of the hotel and there are only a few seats, a few inside and a few outside the patisserie. Not recommeneded for visit with more than two people.
I am not a big fan of apple pie but how I can not try this signature Shatin Apple Pie? It's claimed to be made of natural honey from a local apiary. I quite like it but as I said, I am not a big fan of it thus I can't make fair comment of this. I like it that the apple pieces were not too sour or too sweet.
It was a nice afternoon with apple pie, hot lemon tea and some drizzles. Life is beautiful. :)
You can enjoy a slice of cake/apple pie of your choice and coffee/tea at HK$68 in the afternoon. The hotel is right next to the University Station so if you happen to be in Shatin and do not want to be in a crowded cafe, do consider visiting this patisserie. Enjoy!
