Pick me up dessert

 

Fusion desserts available from Taiwanese to Western to Local. Not everyone loves taiwanese ice dessert eg: me, so this is a great place to gather as they have desserts like Froyo (my love), fruit ice shavings and finger foods.  

 

I think I have the habit to just take a picture of the menu for your reference. :)

First up, Ice Cream Burritos.

Oreo is nice.

Banana is so-so.

Mango I think is a bit weird.

Premium Ice Pick

Speciality

Ice Shaved Tower!

2 flavours: Fruity Tower & Taiwanese dessert inspired flavour (new)

Too big to eat alone, MUST SHARE. 

9 bloggers + 2 tower = CANNOT FINISH!

Taiwanese dessert inspired flavour (new) 

comes with creamer separately in a small container.

Fruity Tower: the colourful one

refreshing, I prefer this.

Chili Chic Quesadilla

*note: on the menu and on the big wall in the shop shows a ton of filling. It's for illustration purposes only, don't be fooled. :)

Is actually this thin. 

The machine was meant to do it this way. 

We became a surgeon and opened it up. Looks good and is quite tasty. I like it, though it does feels a bit too thin. Need more meat!

French Fries with 2 dressings:

Chilli & Cheesy

A bit disappointed with the presentation. 

Actually no, I was very disappointed with the food presentation. 

I was hoping it to be served in a bowl and if they scared that the cheese will make the fries soggy, I don't mind them placing the sauce in another bowl and we pour or dip ourselves. 

Chilli fries comes in same presentation. 

Though is nice to eat it with the meat but too little meat for the amount of fries.

Have to eat with a fork or spoon, fries can't pick up the meat.

BTW, their chilli is not spicy at all. 

 

Same goes for the nachos. 

I should have ask them to heat up the nachos and separate the dippings.

Finally Froyo! MAH FAV!

Well and Soft ice cream, which is also not bad.

Soft Ice cream

I don't mind them, is quite nice. Not home made though.

FROYO FROYO! 

Healthy and tasty! 

They have this topping call the TOASTED OATS which is freaking amazing.

I would just order froyo or soft ice cream with that all the time!

The froyo also tasted great with their sauces available eg: strawberry sauce. 

Also not homemade.

 

Nutella French Toast

Something simple but is not bad. 

You get one bread with nutella and another of your choice.

The one with blueberry is also pretty good.

 

Taiwanese Desserts pick

Common but I like it that they have Lotus seeds (Pak Kor)

Fruity Ice Pick

Lots of Ice shavings at the bottom of the bowl and some toppings :)

So-so only. Again, I like the toppings selection.

Only drinks that we tried, Milk tea with pearls or grass jelly.

Average :)

Charles and Keith Warehouse sale: Should you go?

Ok, so I was at Charles and Keith warehouse sale 2012. I wish I had time to drop by at 10am but sadly I had a 3 hours tortures class. After getting out of the class, excited I am rushing to the big scene. 

*BOOOOMMMM* The excitement dropped to frustration because the 'Lorong' (pathway) is so small and everyone parked on both lanes. There is a school nearby, I pity them for the final 2 days. They will have to join the race for the best shoes. I was caught in the chaos for about 20minutes NOT MOVING AT ALL because everyone (mostly ladies) is so unforgiving and no mercy on International Women Day! and also because we have to wait for a lousy driver who don't know how to park her car ended up scratching her own car to fit into a small spot. 

 

The lorong cleared after peak hours, about 2.30pm-4.30pm seems fine. 

Note to not go During lunch hours (you don't have time to shop at all) of after office hours and before and after school hours. If you really want to join the craze fun-nan-za, take leave but don't tell your boss.

The blood bath just begun, due to the astonishing amount of warriors that were already in the battlefield fighting for their life. The newly trained whom just got pass the parking stage will have to wait outside.   

 

Thankfully, they have the smart mind to put a tent and some chairs with some fans while the people wait. They also provided some umbrellas hung at the entrance that is connected to the exit.  

I didn't have wait very long until it was my turn to get it. You will meet the usual commandos that covers and lock your bad with a plastic bag. Also, if you want, they provides big recycle bag for you to put the shoes you buying in so you can shop more. 

They stated their price range on top and the first counter describes Rm9- I think 30. There were scares variety of belts and bags only. "I was like woah, bags for rm9? Grabing!!" Dreams crashed once again, the bags were priced range between Rm80-120. Some people even double check and ask if it is after discount and some even say "no wonder the booth nobody cause so expensive". I assumed that by the time I went there, all the nice cheap stuff is gone cause girls will have to have 10 of each because it is cheap and because it is branded. Still it was pretty misleading to put those bags there. 

Price after discount.

 

 

Price after discount.

That's that, now we move on to shoes, where they concentrate more and have more varieties. There's lots and lots of shoes but again, there's lots and lots of Women (and some men) of all ages squeezing themselves towards the tables. Literally, even when there is no holes between 2 people, they will just make a hole for themselves. 

It was hot, lack of oxygen and whole place smoked with human sweat smell. Though, again they have some big fans in a few areas. If you wan you can stand in front of the fan and let everyone else smell your body odour. :p Funny thing is I read some other blogs about this, people actually still can FART in this kind of conditions. Lols!

There were about 5-6 booths of RM19-29 and they are all packed with women with amazing shopping skills. Averagely small size girl like me can't even get to the table, so YOU CANNOT PLAY NICE. Everyone is so moody there, haha, people accidentally bang your shoulders also there is no sorry. Everyone is on their own. 

You will have to shout/call loudly to get the person behind the tables attention so they will know your existence because there is really too many people to attend to and they are really lacking of staff. Any for them to find one pair of shoes definitely takes time. That is why don't shop with just your lunch time, is not enough.

Price range increase to RM80 for shoes and they have a special section for only 50% discount. 

Not all shoes have price tagged on it. You will have to ask. 

 When this guy comes out and going to attend people, I can literally see everyone holding up their shoes and asking for this attention. "Adik Adik, dik dik, excuse me, hello hello" Lols, so fun to be a Malaysian. This guy was smart enough to inform us saying that he will start from left to right and from smallest size to bigger sizes. There was probably about 20 ladies waiting to be attended by him and there was no one else there. This is not even the booth of Rm19-29, I think is was about Rm30-60. 

Payment area was nothing to be rave about. They have 8 counters with different payment system and it will be a darn long line during peak hours. This was taken at about 2.30pm, less people.

If they are tired, they will just sit on the floor after taking all the shoes they want and try them on before thinking if they really want it or not. Some even came with babies and strollers, sit at the corner fanning while waiting for their who ever to grab all the shoes.  

I really think if you can skip this sale, then skip it. If you don't have the urgency to need to really get something, then don't go. 

Video taken this afternoon to entertain you.

BTW, I walked out empty handed. :) 

 So should you go?
