The Food Pursuit

Mr Bean is a retailer originating from Singapore that serves ice cream, drinks, pastries, and other delicious goodies made from soya bean. It has 54 listed locations in Singapore and landed its first overseas development in Tokyo at the busy Shibuya train station. I wasn’t expecting to eat anything at the train station but Mr Bean drew my attention. So here’s a quick look.
It’s starting to get chilly in Toronto and as much as I enjoyed the awesome weather this summer, I think it’s time I finally welcome fall by putting away my summer clothes. The more time I spend snuggling up at home, the more time I spend in the kitchen. So I decided to whip up something to eat for when I have rendezvous with my book and coffee on my reading chair. I looked at what was available and decided I had everything I need to make banana walnut bread.
You probably noticed the Yutopia frozen yogurt stall if you’ve been to Pacific Mall in the last year or so. It’s a shop that has a simple concept: make your own treat with any flavor(s) they offer and add any topping(s) that tickles your fancy. How much it costs depends solely on weight. Based on the glaring eyes of shoppers that walk by, it seems to be a crowd favorite due in part to a fresh, fun idea. I mean, who doesn’t have a deep desire to play with food?
Sweet soups, tong sui, and sugar water are all common names for dessert that’s served at the end of a meal in Cantonese cuisine. Some of these desserts have a liquid base, others may take form of a custard. Some are good for the skin, others are good for the digestive track. Whatever the case, it may seem that a Cantonese meal is never complete without eating sweet soups. With dessert shops at the corner of every other block in Hong Kong, I made a visit to Honeymoon Dessert.
