come have PANCAKES with me~

It's been a while since I have NORMAL breakfast. At the time when I was still working (in Thailand, of course), my breakfast either consist of rice+omelet (ข้าวไข่เจียว) or sticky rice+grilled pork skewer (ข้าวเหนียวหมูปิ้ง).
ps. I'm only typing the names in Thai because I've become nostalgia all of a sudden

I was excited to finally have a normal breakfast (but then again, does having it at 11 smth counts as 'breakfast'? oh what the hell...it's breakfast food at least). What I'm talking about is PANCAKES.

When I told my friends in Aussieland that I was coming for vacation in November, they told me wherever I go, DO NOT forget to try Pancakes on the Rocks. But sadly enough, I didn't get to try it before my vacation ended. Now that I am here again, I figured it's time! So.... 5 months after I landed and walked pass the pancake shop about 151 times, I finally stepped in to try the pancake everyone was talking about.

"Regular Pancake Stack"

"Strawberry Patch"

You know what happened after the first bite??? I was spellbound~ I don't know what took over me - and I blame it on the luscious strawberries that came with the 'Strawberry Patch' pancakes - all of a sudden, the corners of my mouth starts to move by itself.. and I was left with a huge smile plastered on my tiny face O_O No matter what I tried, the smile was stuck there... until the last strawberry was consumed~ The buttermilk pancakes were thick and soft, and there were plenty of fresh strawberries~ YUMMMMMM~

Next time, I'm ordering 'Devils Delight' - chocolate pancake - YUMMMMMM *SMILES*

Coffee, Tea or Babycino?

Before I came to Sydney, I didn't realize that McDonald's also has a cafe. So when I saw McCafe in Aussieland I was excited. HEY! don't judge me! I'm only human. I get excited at things like that...>.<

Anyway, so .. McCafe... First, something about me and cafes. I like cafes, I like being there and relaxing, watching the world go by. I like the smell of coffee, but I can't drink too much coffee cuz it gives me headaches. I'm more of a tea person. But on that faithful day that I happen to plonk myself on a stool at McCafe near university, I was not in the mood for tea (or coffee). I would be happy just to sit there basking in the warmth of a heater, but that was not to be, my friends wouldn't let that happen. After much protest, they purchased a babycino for me. AHA! I know you're wondering 'what the hell's a babycino??'. Let me en light you...

A 'babycino' is a fancy name for 'hot milk' -_-'... that's it. It's basically hot milk with froth and sprinkle of chocolate. If you're starting to wonder why such fanciness for something so simple.. it's because it's a scam!!!! It's a way for parents to spoiled their little brats. The cup is small AND it's not cheap. The price is probably marked up by 200% just because it's in a branded cup.

My oh my~ what is the world turning to when a caffeine induced venue starts to target the young ones?
