Uh-oh….At first glance, I was disappointed….regretfully ordering this one….

But when we got a slice of it…..oooohhhh–laaaahhhh–laaahhhhh….can’t stop myself!  Actually, I got 90% of this slice!  Love this chocolate candy bar!  Chocolate mouse with ganache and biscuit!  Yummy!  I can go back to this place just for this!

Yes, sinfully good!

Better call and reserve a table especially this coming December!  And of course, to catch a glimpse of Rob and Sunshine Pengson in action!  Hopefully, they’ll also have time to chat with you in between courses (or maybe don’t order too much so they’ll have more time outside their kitchen?)

We would love to go here with the kids…I’m just asking my friend, P, where exactly this is going to be held at MOA and until what time will this be so we would not be hassled of going around and around MOA.

Here’s P’s response:

The Grand Festival of Lights is basically a parade composed of 12 electric floats accompanied by dancers and mascots that go around the perimeter arcades of the mall.

Route: Starts at the North Arcade (area of Cheesecake etc. outside of the Hypermarket entrance) –> main drop off area which is the facade in front of the MOA globe –> South Arcade (area of Gonuts Donuts outside of the Department store entrance) –> along Seaside boulevard (which is the street between the mall and San Miguel By the Bay).

At the end of the parade, we finish off with a musical show at the 70ft Outdoor tree at SM By the Bay then our holiday fireworks.

Best spot: Along the North Arcade just as the parade starts. Try the area outside of Mann Hann or Mexicali.

 My HB with Martin Yan….no, he’s not the man behind Cook with Yan…check out my HB’s post for more details…

“I always admire people who pursued their passion and became very successful (and happy). I was privileged to have met the Master Chef Martin Yan, who is here on a promotional tour for GE Monogram’s luxurious kitchen line. Watch this three-part mentoring session with Master Chef Martin Yan!” (Read More:  The Wisdom of Chef Martin Yan)

I was not in the mood to have an ice cream…too full and too tired from all the walking and waiting….

Looks yummy?

Weighing until it reaches 90grams.

Price list!!! Affordable?  I’m not sure what are the Favorites and Premium though…I guess, the favorites are the usual flavors.

Go Nuts Ice Cream is only available at Go Nuts Donuts SM Makati, West Gate Filinvest (Alabang) and SM Mall of Asia.  I don’t know why they didn’t expand to all branches though….

Compli breads/ sticks and spread.  Tomato salsa and pesto sauce.   We liked this kind bread, soft and tasty, crunchy to the bite sticks.

Minestrone di Verdure Fresche (P150 +12% VAT +10% SC). Fresh Vegetable Soup

This was too healthy for me.  My MIL would love this.  Too tomato!

Ai 5 Formaggi (P400 +12% VAT +10% SC). Mozzarella, Parmesan, Pecorino, Fontina and Gorgonzola Cheese.

We loved the 5 cheese combi of the pizza.  I love the fact that it is soft and the cheese are so generous.  Rarely can you find 5 kinds of cheese in a pizza and the variety of the cheese in this pizza.

Ravioli Tartufo (P550 +12% VAT +10% SC). Homemade pasta stuffed with Mushroom and Black Truffle.

HB insisted on ordering a pasta with truffle and so, we got this.  We were hoping to enjoy this pasta dish inspite of the not so appealing pasta but HB just end up finishing it off trying to analyze what went wrong.  The ravioli pasta was supposed to be tender, bite and your teeth would sink into the pasta but it was not.  We got sad because it not what we expected.  Even the sauce got affected.  I decided to munch on the pizza instead (and trying so hard not to think of the price + VAT+ SC) and look forward to the unusual flavor of gelato….

Gelato con Basilico (P160 +12% VAT +10% SC).

Such a different twist for a flavor but I love it! :)  I just hope it doesn’t cost this much though with the ++ on the price.

Gelato con Olio (P160 +12% VAT +10% SC).

This was also a different one but sadly, it wasn’t as saleable as the basil flavor.  It really tasted olive oil thus, was not to my liking…

Gelato Chocolate (P160 +12% VAT +10% SC).

We just recently knew that what was served to us was not ferrero but just plain chocolate flavor.  This explains why it was nothing extraordinary…but with the same price?  Hmmm….oh well, if it was different, maybe the olive oil and basil flavor might be higher….please no….the price as it is, is already high…
