Casino Clafoutis cerises

Clafoutis is a baked French dessert of black cherries arranged in a buttered dish and covered with a thick flan-like batter. The clafoutis is dusted with powdered sugar and served lukewarm.

Before I found this info from the internet I did not know it was served warm so I ate it straight from the fridge.
Now it seems to make sense that it is in a foil dish!
It would have probably tasted nicer sweet! What a waste!








Optima Activjuice for joints - glucosamine sulphate

I am reviewing this as a drink and not as a health supplement, but glucosamine sulphate claims to give you healthy joints.

It tastes the same as orange cordial you get in UK, I am saying that because orange cordial tastes different in different countries.

It also has a slight bitternesss to it.

I tried mixing the cordial with black tea without milk and it tasted quite nice.

The cordial must be shaken before use as there is crystallization in it.




Rickshaw Jasmine tea bags

Hopefully I will remember not to buy this brand again because the tea bags are not packed into smaller packets inside so you need a container to store them.

Emmi Swiss Premium yoghurt


Tried the Emmi Swiss yogurts which has six flavours: aloe vera, pineapple, raspberry, apple apricot and blueberry.
Aloe vera and raspberry tasted the best. The pineapple was slightly sour.

Casino ile flottante - Floating island

A floating island is a French dessert consisting of meringue floating on crème anglaise (a vanilla custard). The meringues are prepared from whipped egg whites, sugar and vanilla extract then quickly poached. The crème anglaise is prepared with the egg yolks, vanilla, and hot milk, briefly cooked.

Casino had this dessert and it was ready to eat as well!
This is the first time I have seen moist egg whites as a packaged dessert.

Basically it was egg white on top of vanilla cream, there was a sachet of syrup/caramel sauce but I did not need it because the dessert was sweet enough already.

The egg whites were nice and foamy and went well with the vanilla cream which was nice and runny.







Nissin US Spicy chile chicken Flavor cup noodles

Previous tried the Salsa shrimp flavour which was quite nice.
The Spicy Chile chicken flavour is similar but it contain soy pieces and sweetcorn in it.

Fresh Jackfruit

Finally got to try fresh Jackfruit because the ones I have tried before were dehydrated.
The Jackfruit's appearance and inside is similar to a durian yet the taste and smell is so different.
The jackfruit tastes really sweet and the smell is also really strong.
