Must Eat Handmade Ice Cream at MilkTop

January 4th, 2011 by Jonas / Filed under Dessert, Food, Hong Kong, Must Eat, Travels / Leave A Comment

As a self-proclaimed ice cream snob, I must admit that I really loved MilkTop. I’d say it’s ice cream for the older Asian palette. It’s creamy, has a strong flavor of whatever you choose – many being Asian flavors like chestnut, green tea (those were the two I tried), sweet potato, yuzu, and passionfruit – [...]

I wasn’t digging the place I had shaved snow the other day, but the one I had from Sawdust Dessert 糖樓甜品屋 was way better. The ice was a lot lighter and not so sweet, plus they do mixed (half/half) flavors! G/F, 477-481 Jaffe RoadCauseway Bay 銅鑼灣謝斐道477-481號肇明大廈地下

Haircut at Rever Innovation Salon

January 2nd, 2011 by Jonas / Filed under Hong Kong, Travels / Leave A Comment

My guy Dommy Ng didn’t have the best English, but he tried and it was enough to get the job done. He was really nice. The place is hip and trendy, but great service. A cut for me was originally HKD$320, but he gave a discount since my friend Phil referred me, so the total [...]
