Keep Cool and Eat Ice Cream

Nowadays, Manila is becoming like the busy streets of NYC. 
With today's fast-paced lifestyle, it's often difficult to find time 
to relax and unwind, but when we do, it has got to be worth it.


While going around the Metro, my twin and I found a cool hangout place that
can satisfy our cravings and at the same time put a smile on our face.


Call it a guilty pleasure, but Ice Cream would always be part of everyone's childhood;
And I'm glad that Mr. Lincoln Cheong, the man behind the new 
ice cream parlor Carousel Creamery, understands that. 

If you look closely at this photo, you'll know how well-loved and in-demand this place is.



With more than 101 flavors to choose from, the 'kid' in you will be all giddy.
To help you out, I did a little chitchat with the owner himself and 
here are some revelations about Carousel Creamery:

TOP 3 BEST-SELLING ICE CREAM FLAVORS:
Speculoos, Dark Side Chocolate and NY Cheesecake

(I'm lucky to actually have chosen a crowd favorite, as the very first flavor 
that I tried before getting to know Mr. Cheong was NY Cheesecake)
Verdict: melt in your mouth creamy goodness



TOP 3 MUST-TRY ICE CREAM FLAVORS:
S'mores, Chunky Cheese and Kitkat Milo Crunch

C.C. OWNER'S PERSONAL FAVORITE ICE CREAM FLAVORS:
Rum Raisin or All Spice 'n Everything Nice


And if you're looking for more interesting flavors, why not try
Pinoy Beer & Chicharon, Bacon & Cheese ice cream, Baileys or 
perhaps Wasabi to tickle those tastebuds.
So many iconic flavors to choose from, what's not to love?

Not to mention, Carousel Creamery is not just pure ice cream; 
they offer more than that.


If you're looking for some caffeine-kick with the goodness of ice cream,
give their signature | ESPRESSO SHAKE | a shot.
2 Scoops of Ice Cream and a double shot of espresso,
topped with whipped cream and coffee beans.


My twin and I chose Salted Caramel as a flavor for our Espresso Shake.
Normally for drinks, we would share, but for this shake, no can do :)
One Word: Delicioso!


For our combo deal, we ordered  | CHEESE DOG | .
The Hotdog comes with a side of fries, Heinz ketchup and Mayo.
Simply perfect for chillout sessions with your barkada.


Just look at us dig-in.
If you personally know us, we eat like boys!
Petite girls but with Big Appetite (hence our body figure, lol)


Our Dessert Experience wouldn't be complete without these 2 sweet treats:
 | BROWNIE ICE CREAM SANDWICH | 
1 Scoop Vanilla Bean Ice Cream in between 2 brownies,
topped with warm homemade caramel sauce


 | OREO OVERLOAD | 
Scoops of Dark Chocolate, Mocha Oreo and Rocky Road Ice Cream,
topped with Oreo cookies and wafer sticks


We could have shown you more IG worthy shots, 
however our tummies are about to explode. Will definitely be back! 

Here's a photo of us goofing around with sunnies just because it's summer :)


Irresistible Food (Melt in your mouth goodness),
 Great Music (Beats full of life), 
what's not to love?

Mind you though, this place easily gets full so you know what to do :)



Whether you're in a celebratory mood or have some matters of the heart to attend to,
 let Carousel Creamery be your beautiful distraction #wevegotyourflavor

My Guilty Pleasure

Aside from dressing up, I'm sure you love to eat too! 
(Forget the calories because you'll love this one!)

So here's a little aside before I share with you another Holiday Look :)

Get to know one of my guilty pleasures.
Clue: It starts with the letter


I love MAGNUM.
If you haven't tried it, then you don't know what you're missing.


...Because a day without pleasure is a day lost.



Magnum Pleasure Store is located in SM Aura, Fort Bonifacio.
It's a pop-up store that opened last April 2014.
That being said, you have about 5 months or so to try it out 'coz
pop-out stores usually run for about 12 months only.


Aside from creating your own Magnum delight,
 the beauty with Magnum Pleasure store is that you get to dine and try out their exquisite dishes.



Some of my top recommendations:


Braised US Short Ribs 
Beef Short Ribs braised tender in Red Wine,
Herbs and Belgian Dark Chocolate, P 550



Seared Chicken with Arugula and Sundried Tomato Pasta
Marinated Chicken Breast Fillet topped over pasta,
tossed in homemade sundried tomato pesto, 
with fresh arugula and grilled lemon, P280

And of course for dessert, a make your own customized MAGNUM Bar :)


So bring your friends along and experience pleasure in every bite.


Because that is a Magnum promise :)
