Food Find : Picket Fence Ice Cream

*SPONSORED POST*

I scream for ICE CREAM! :)

A grew up thinking that eating ice cream is only suitable during the summer months. When the temperature is at its all time high and nothing sounds better than indulging in a cold cup of creamy goodness to beat the heat. It was until I learned that ice cream can also be taken in the cold winter nights to help your body release more heat to combat the..cold! It may take a while for this fact to make sense but I tried it when it was shivering cold in Seoul, Korea last April and true enough, it made my heart tremble less and my body somehow was able to produce more heat. This now gives all ice cream lovers out there the reason to enjoy their favourite cold scoop at any given time of the day, month or year!

Over the weekend, Paul and I visited SM North EDSA to check out a cute sky blue ice cream cart called Picket Fence! Being big ice cream fans, we got word that this is really good stuff thus we know we can’t pass up on the opportunity to try it ourselves. Taking a closer look, we found out that Picket Fence sells imported ice cream from Australia. To localize it, they have renamed the flavours based on the names of each of their family members. There’s Mei Mei Mint, Koko Coffee, Wordy’s White Chocolate and Tiffy Strawberry to name a few. At present they have around 10 flavours available and we were able to sample most of them.

Finally, after a round of tasting, Paul chose the Mimi Milk Chocolate which he said had a really rich milk chocolate flavour which will surely please all choco lovers out there. It’s silky and creamy just the way he likes it. I think it would also make a great milkshake too!

I, on the other hand, I went for the Delle Macadamia which is part of their Kikay Barkada line as these are named after the famous DJs of RX 93.1 Delamar, Chico and Gino! I love The Morning Rush as I’ve been listening to both Chico and Delamar since I was in High School.

Going back to the ice cream, It was love at first bite! I always prefer chunky ice cream over the smooth ones thus I enjoyed chewing on the macadamia pieces while enjoying the vanilla based ice cream too. I finished my cup of ice cream in no time and wished that they sell in pints for me to bring home to enjoy some more!

Price List: 
1 scoop: Php. 60
2 scoops: Php. 110
Malted Milkshake: Php. 75 (Regular) / Php. 120 (Extra Thick)

Only a few months old, they already have three cart locations already – SM North Edsa – The Block, SM Mall of Asia and SM Southmall. Soon, they will be opening their first-ever store in FRB Arcade Katipunan and in ASEANA One Bldg. Macapagal Blvd., Manila.

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic

Misto at Seda Vertis North

Happy Friday!  I'm not going to lie, Friday is one of my favorite days because it means, we're just a day away from the weekend! Who doesn't love the weekend, right? This is the day when I give my twins my uninterrupted attention. We would start the day with any breakfast of their choice (normally waffles for J, pancakes or peanut butter sandwich for L) followed by an hour of doing their homework and in the afternoon, we head out for their swim class! Sunday is more laid back as we would stay home and just laze around the house otherwise, we would go and visit my in laws and spend the day there.  Speaking of the weekend, I suddenly remembered one of the best weekends that we've had this year so far. This was when we had our staycation at Seda Vertis North  and the twins truly enjoyed every minute of it. Of course, they love our comfy and very spacious Corner Suite with an adjacent Deluxe Room as well as checking out the hotel's amenities and the Vertis North mall
