Day 15

Pancakes on the Rocks

Pancakes on the Rocks
After a partying till the morning we somehow found ourselves waiting for the restaurant Pancakes on the Rocks to open. It was a restaurant I had never tried before and this early morning seemed like the right opportunity.

We all ordered similar dishes being cautious having not eaten at this restaurant before. My dish arrived, pancakes with ice cream, egg, bacon and a few slices of pineapple. When the plate arrived I was left staring at it for a while wondering how these ingredients would mix. As I begun to taste I soon realised it was not something I liked. None of the ingredients worked well together. Rather I was left eating each on its own. The bill definitely was not worth the food we had tasted.

Day 2

Oliver Brown~
Stepping into Oliver Brown the atmosphere was entirely different from the bustling traffic beyond the glass windows. You were sucked into the comfort of the decor and the wondrous smell of chocolate. I couldn't help jump a little in glee.

Being our first time at the cafe, we looked a little lost browsing through their menu. The pricing the and choices on the menu wasn't anything different from standard chocolate cafes.

below is a picture of waffles and a Cookies and Cream frappe, crepes and a simple cappuccino.

A mountain of melted chocolate on top of waffle, strawberries and banana? What more could a girl ask for? There was definitely enough chocolate to satisfy my cravings. The waffle, however, was more chewy than the ones I usually have but I could get by. The drink definitely tastes like oreos, a plus in my books and there was so much of it!

 The crepes unfortunately didn't fair as well. Though it pleasantly presented it tasted more  like pre-made packet crepes. Not really worth it for a meal over $10, however, the strawberries were definitely fresh and not to mention the chocolate.

The cappuccino was relatively standard. What really won our hearts was the small accompaniment chocolate melts served up in the teaspoon. Such a sucker for miniature anything!

All in all it was a pleasant first time  despite the flaws.
