Pupu’s B’day Boon!
Hee hee hee hee it says nOOb hee hee hee hee… I’m such a nerd
Firstly Yay for holidays, means more free time which hopefully means more posting (not that I didn’t do much during the exams haha) but just time to relax ^^!
But onto the main part of the post, a little while back it was Pupu’s Birthday! (there are quite a few June babies isn’t there?). To celebrate we went to have a nice dinner at A Tavola which is conveniently just a few stores down from one of our favourite chocolatiers Boon! The place was all ready for winter with the cute polar bears with scarves and the snowflakes and what better way to beat back this cold than creamy and rich hot chocolates with delicious and fluffy mousses and a praline to match and melt in the mouth ^^!
Milk hot chocolate with chocolate mousse and pralines (Kurobiko on left and Pistachio on the right)
The awesome Alex also gave us 2 El Corazon pralines as a gift to Pupu hee hee. The El Corazon are one of my favourite pralines here as they are so smooth and creamy with the white chocolate and fruity ensemble, the kurobiko has the beautiful crunch of rice krispies and black sesame does give off a very Japanese feel to it while the pistachio has a wonderfully nutty flavour resonating through the mouth afterwards.
And typical in my fashion I love combining ^^! (this promptly got dunked in the hot chocolate to make it melt easier in the mouth mmmmmmm. Try it hee hee!)
I had also arranged for a Boon (nOOb) present hee hee
It was the Open Letter as I had always thought it was a sweet and novel present!
Happy B’day Pupu ^^! Hope you had a great time!

huugss thank you Richie for taking me out and getting such a sweet present ^^
I still have the chocolate letter part itself, though the pencil and most of the hearts are gone! Been trying to do as you said and only eat one part a day =P
Also thank you to Alex for the delicious El Corazon pralines, and of course, to Fanny who made them!!
