LOVELOCKS Ice Cream Shop - Fresh Home Made Coconut Ice Cream


LOVELOCKS is a new ice cream shop in town, opened just over 10 days ago at the corner of the junction between Love Lane and Chulia Street. The light blue facade of the shop is unmistakable from afar.

The name of the ice cream shop suggests the interesting notion that you should (pad) lock your love with your soul mate, family or friends and throw the key away so your love for each other will forever be sealed.

LOVELOCKS sells only one type of fresh homemade coconut ice cream with toppings of your liking. One topping that deserves a special callout is the passion fruit caviar, a fruit caviar developed via molecular cooking. The lady at the counter also suggested that we drizzle some raw egg yolk over the ice cream which apparently is a common topping for coconut ice cream in Thailand.

The coconut ice cream was light, smooth and fresh. The four toppings we opted for: almond slices, corn flakes, passion fruit caviar and “atap chee” (atap seeds) added just the right crunch and flavours to the ice cream.  

Check out their Facebook page for photos of people who have sealed their love at LOVELOCKS.

Delicious Straits Quay


We were craving for dessert after dinner one night at Straits Quay so we hopped into Delicious for a sinful late night treat. As you can see from the picture above, we were spoilt for choice by the huge selection of desserts on display. 

We took our pick and ended up with the classic Warm Maple Walnut Tart with Vanilla Ice Cream (RM14.90) and Fruit & Berry Trifle (RM14.90). The walnut tart has a crunchy texture and is just excellent when served warm with vanilla ice cream. Do note that the big serving size can be quite filling if you are not sharing.

Flamingo Sunday Buffet Lunch - 65 dishes to delight


After a few failed attempts, we finally managed to make reservation for the family at the infamous Flamingo Sunday Buffet Lunch. The sumptuous buffet sporting 65 dishes was the talk of the town when it was introduced in April this year.

Now after six months, the buffet is still so popular that the hotel has to extend to the ballroom to cater to the overwhelming patronage. I am not surprised given the variety of both local and international fare and the price of only RM25 nett per adult. To top that off, the first 10 guests and all senior citizens age 65 years and above get an additional 50% discount.

Do not expect to get the best of Penang hawker food here but personally, I feel the price and variety more than made up for it.


Do book early to avoid dissapointment.

Mother's Day Cake and Birthday Cakes from Baskin Robbins and Bread History



We bought the special Mother's Day ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins with the Very Berry Strawberry flavour, which is loaded with real strawberries.

The ice cream cake is layered with chocolate cake at the top and bottom and strawberry ice cream in between. The strawberry ice cream was a bit sourish thus it was not too sweet and was a great combination with the chocolate cake.

The strawberry ice cream cake was refreshing and was just nice and not too filling at the end of a Mother' Day lunch at the Maple Palace Restaurant (see post here).


We happened to be celebrating my dear sis birthday on the same day so we bought another Chocolate Strawberry / Cherry Cake from Bread History at Queensbay Mall (basement, in front of Jaya Jusco).

We have always liked Bread History cakes and I have to say this chocolate cake was just as good.

Happy Birthday sis! May all your birthday dreams and wishes come true :)


We loved the ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins so much that we decided to get another cake for mom's birthday two weeks later.

This time I got the 6" round cake with the Jamoca Almond Fudge ice cream and chocolate cake at RM88. The cake looked rather small but was enough to go around among nine of us after a heavy lunch.



Happy 60th Birthday mom! May there be many more happy years to come.

Baskin Robbins Ice Cream Cake

We ordered the Baskins Robbins all ice cream cake to celebrate our colleagues' birthday in March.

I opted for the Oreo® Cookie Cake design from the Elegant Designs series, with Jamoca® Almond Fudge and Peanut Butter `n Chocolate ice cream flavours. The two flavours blended well and complimented each other. The cake was priced at RM120.75 including tax.

P/S: The cake didn't look that great in the photos. I think it's because we didn't keep in the fridge before serving.

Happy Birthday YK and ST! :)

Gelato Fruity


Gelato Fruity was founded in year 2004 with it's first Gelato Fruity outlet in 1 Utama Shopping Centre.

According to its website, Gelato Fruity Production uses natural ingredients and its gelato is freshly produced daily with no preservatives.



We just had a very heavy dinner so we decided to go for just one scoop of the lemon flavour gelato. It wasn't the best we have tried and was quite forgettable.

Teppanyaki Ice Cream - Latest Recipe at Le Meridien KL

We were at the Latest Recipe Restaurant for the dinner buffet (RM88++ per pax) but unfortunately we did not really take any photos.

However, the Teppanyaki ice cream is worth mentioning here as you can hardly find it elsewhere. The Teppanyaki ice cream is prepared on a cold plate and ingredients are folded into the ice cream - Teppanyaki style. You can ask the chef to include anything from nuts to dried fruits to chocolate etc. There are apparently over 40 ingredients to choose from.
