Strawberry Indulgence

Finally hit mezza9 at the Hyatt Hotel today to try out that strawberry shortcake that some people are talking so much about. Strangely, considering that the place is housed within a hotel like the Hyatt, the cakes were going surprisingly cheap! The strawberry shortcake was going for $4.50 compared to Bakerzin's $6+. Overall, it was quite a good experience. We had tiramisu, strawberry shortcake, strawberry cheesecake, and blackforest. The tiramisu was nothing much to shout about though, in fact it was almost tasteless. The strawberry shortcake was topped with rolls of white chocolate and blueberries, which went really well with the rest of it. The strawberry cheesecake was just plain awesome. Loads of strawberries on top of a thick mass of cheese. Great stuff. The blackforest was ok, nothing out of the ordinary.

After that it was more shopping again, and this time I decided to return to the tailor at Far East Plaza who had made my first suit about 2 years ago to check out his selection. Surprisingly, he remembered me! Haha he was asking where theHaz was as well cos he remembered we both had our suits done up there 2 years ago. Turns out that he had quite a fine selection of fabrics there, and I couldn't help but get some shirts done up. I'm beginning to feel the need for a bigger wardrobe now..

Quantum of Solace was up next. People were right. It's mostly action now, and the whole espionage thing is totally gone. It was still quite a show though.
