i’m not sure if you got the memo but apparently, mochi is pretty fattening. who knew?! so the marketing savvy people over at the kowloon dairy have come up with a new product to save the day…
they also have the worst idea i can think of in a dessert.
madhavi made me eat durian in singapore at raffles hotel and i almost spit it out all over the waiter’s shoes. (but i’m polite, so no, i didn’t spew but i quickly swallowed and drank some juice.) they always say durian doesn’t taste as bad as it smells. unfortunately the durian i ate was in an ice-cream sunday so it was partially frozen, thereby dampering what is popularly referred to as the “stink effect.” so i figured if it doesn’t taste as bad as it smells and it didn’t smell too bad, it should taste pretty good.
well, it didn’t really taste like much at first but all of a sudden i could have sworn i was eating rotten carrots, old coffee grounds and dirt. DIRT people. and i don’t know how she did it, but that bitch madhavi must’ve taken an acting class or two because she sat very calmly and straight faced in front of me during the whole procedure until i had discovered the true heinousness of this “fruit.” only then did she burst out laughing and pointing. she knew damn well what she was doing.
all i have to say is, revenge is a bitch. watch your back, my friend.
