Panda's Fried Ice Cream

Place: Panda's Fried Ice Cream, Ma. Christina Street, Dumaguete City near Silliman University
Date: April 07 2012

This Fried Ice Cream can be bought at the Panda fried Ice Cream along Ma. Christina Street, Dumaguete City just a few walks from Silliman University. You might be intrigue but yes it is an ice cream fried in hot oil. How did they do it? Just simple, it is basically an ice cream inside a crispy bread fried and served immediately while it is hot. It has four flavors: mocha, ube, vanilla and buko pandan. I got mine for Php55 for the first piece, and Php45 for the succeeding piece.

Verdict. I think some of the blog post overrated the panda fried ice cream. The outside shell is just a plain breaded stuff just like that bought in Shop-o-Rama. It is not sweet but its crispy and has greasy taste. The ice cream tasted ordinary too just like that of Manong's dirty ice cream. But, what makes it noticeable is the union of the opposite worlds (hot and cold) making it really special and unique and is worth the try when in Dumaguete City.

Kintaro Mandarin Gate 10th high

Place: Kintaro Mandarin Gate 10th high, Sky Park Hotel Rooftop
Date: August 08 2011

Kintaro Mandarin Gate 10th High, as the picture says, is on the topmost of Sky Park Hotel, the tallest hotel, located on the central business and commercial district of Zamboanga City. Its exact address is German Tower corner Antonio Orendain Street, Zamboanga City, near Shop-o-rama and ABC Bakery.

This is not actually my first time to be in this restaurant, I reckoned wayback in college that I and my co Lhao uy friends dined here and had a very good impression not only on the superb taste of their foods but as well on the nice scenery offered outside the glasses and the accomodating staff who rendered great service.

Accordingly, it's a Japanese Restaurant but I dont feel like it is a Japanese Restaurant. I dont know probably because all their cuisines on their menu book sounded and look familiar and I was thinking more of like alien names for that type.

This restaurant is considered as one of the best "Japanese Restaurant" in the city and I would have to absolutely agree with that (including my friends). I am not actually an expert in terms of food reviews but definitely I cannot deny the fact that the foods excite our taste buds. 

Recommendation: Definitely a must visit restaurant when in Zamboanga City. Excellent service, good food, best aerial scenery (especially at sunset), and best of all, affordable. Best site for dates and for those who just wants peace and away from paparazzis kunoh.

Remarks: thank you Madwin for the treat!!!
