We’ve been visiting Twinkle 2 pretty frequently lately because iPanda has fallen in love with their stars!  Take a look at my previous post HERE to understand what I mean.  I wanted to share with all you foodie lovers out there that they have a special deal now where you can get a complementary drink (house milk tea or honey green tea) with all set meals served from 12 to 8pm.  I think this is a great deal because a drink here can easily be 4 or 5 dollars (depending on what you order and if you add anything to your drink).

My favourite meal here is the fish roe and unagi fried rice.  It’s delicious!  I’ve been trying to make a similar version of it at home.  I add salmon bits to it too.  This dish is not exactly a fried rice because the rice is too moist.  Traditional fried rice should be made with left over rice and should be very dry.  However, I personally like it if fried rice is a bit moist.  In terms of size, this isn’t a very big plate but should be enough for 1 person.

I shared the rice with Rockia so we also ordered a snack.  YUM!  I love their crispy fried chicken nuggets.  They were heavily breaded and fried so that the outside was very crispy.  This dish wasn’t very oily because it didn’t leave the taste of oil in your mouth.  However, it’s this is definitely not a very healthy snack.

I have always loved Creme Brulee~  It’s one of my favourite desserts.  That’s why I was so hooked on drinking the Winter Starbucks drink: Brulee Latte!!  Now that the winter season is over, it was really sad to see the drink go.  But I recently noticed that there is a new flavour for McDonald’s McFlurry!  This is the new creme brulee mcflurry!!!

This comes in two sizes….small and large.  However, we ordered the small and it was actually a pretty big cup.  Enough for Rockia and iPanda anyways.

The McDonald’s signature vanilla ice cream is mixed with caramel and large pieces of caramel sugar candy.  I really enjoyed the caramel and vanilla ice cream; but there were way too many sugar pieces.  They were pretty large pieces so you will have to chew them.  I found that the ice cream was overly sweet because of these sugar pieces.

As well, the caramel in the McFlurry wasn’t mixed throughout the entire cup so the bottom of the ice cream didn’t have any caramel or sugar pieces.  It was a great dessert overall; but you should definitely order the small size if you don’t like overly sweet things.  Creme Brulee is the best!!!

iPanda was having drinks with Koala Bear at Victoria Drive’s Tea Works.  I ordered a green milk tea with pudding but was quickly disappointed. The milk tea was average.  They had a good balance between milk and tea powder and sugar syrup.  However, the pudding was weird because it was still powdery.  As well, the pudding tasted weird because it wasn’t actually Japanese pudding.  What we had tasted like it was a weird flavour of jello.  The pudding ruined the entire drink.  Can you tell my disappointment? This is one of those rare situations where Panda didn’t finish her bbt.  Oh well.  At least we had a nice evening catching up with Koala Bear!
